Account creation tutorials: Step-by-step guide to registering on Menivo

Follow the steps below and you'll have your account set up and your first digital menu active in just a few minutes.

Access the Menivo platform and create a new account

Go to menivo.io and click the "Register" button in the top right corner. Fill out the form with your email address, a secure password, and your name. You will receive a confirmation email — check your Spam folder if you don't find it in your Inbox. Once your address is confirmed, you're ready to log in to the platform and start the process of setting up your restaurant.

💡 Pro tip: Use a business email address (e.g., contact@yourrestaurant.com) to keep a clear separation between your personal and professional accounts.

Add your restaurant's profile

Once logged in, the first step is to add your restaurant. Fill in the required fields: restaurant name, address, working hours, and optionally, a description and a logo. The logo image is processed automatically — the platform resizes it and converts it to WebP format for fast digital menu loading. You can fill in the information in both Romanian and English for international customers. Also check out the complete guide for creating your restaurant on Menivo for additional details.

💡 Pro tip: Add a description of at least 30 characters — this appears in the digital menu visible to customers and contributes to a professional first impression.

Configure the general restaurant settings

From the Restaurant Settings section, you can edit the entered information and customize the public profile: add a cover image, modify the schedule, or update the description. The slug (the unique URL of your menu) is generated automatically, but can be customized manually. This is the address that customers will access after scanning the QR code. Check out the restaurant settings configuration guide for a complete visual walkthrough.

💡 Pro tip: Choose a short and memorable slug (e.g., pizzeria-roma) that reflects your restaurant's name — it will be visible in your digital menu's URL.

Create menu categories

Organizing your menu starts with categories. Click on "Add category" and enter a name (e.g., Appetizers, Main Courses, Desserts, Drinks). Categories can be reordered at any time via drag-and-drop, without needing to delete and re-add them. You can also specify the preparation department: kitchen, bar, or both. Read the complete guide for creating menu categories and how to reorder menu categories.

💡 Pro tip: Category limits depend on the chosen subscription plan. Check the Subscription section to see what limit applies to your account.

Add products with photos, prices, and allergens

Enter the desired category and click "Add product". Fill in: product name, description, ingredients, price, weight, and photo. Images are automatically optimized (resized and converted to WebP). An essential step is selecting the food allergens associated with each product — Menivo includes an AI generator that identifies allergens from ingredients. You can also use the AI-powered nutritional value calculator to complete nutritional information. For complete details, see the complete tutorial for adding products to your menu.

💡 Pro tip: Adding allergens is a legal obligation in Romania. Check out the guide on legal obligations for food allergens to make sure you comply with current legislation.

Generate and download your restaurant's QR code

Once your menu is set up, go to the "QR Code" section in the admin panel. The platform has already generated a unique QR code, directly linked to your digital menu. You can download the code in printable format and display it on tables, at the entrance, or on custom stands. Customers scan the code with their phone and instantly access the updated menu, with no need for a separate app. If you're just starting out and want to better understand the technology, read what a digital QR menu is and how it works.

💡 Pro tip: Print the QR code at a minimum size of 5×5 cm and place it at eye level for easy scanning. Test scanning with several phone models before displaying it.
