Your Restaurant's Story, Told by Everyone Who Loves It
Create a living page where customers share photos, reviews, and memories. QR codes on tables let diners instantly add their experience to your story.
Picture This: Your Regular Customer's First Visit Story
Maria scans the QR code on her table and reads dozens of stories from other diners. She sees photos of the chef's famous pasta, voice notes about anniversary celebrations, and heartfelt reviews about your staff's kindness. Inspired, she adds her own photo of tonight's meal and a message about the warm service. Your restaurant isn't just serving food — you're creating a community of stories that brings new customers through the door.

Why Restaurant Owners Choose Ownstory
Unlike social media reviews that disappear in feeds, your restaurant story is permanent, private, and completely owned by you. Plus, customers can pool money for gift cards when they love their experience.
Private & Permanent
This isn't social media. No public feeds, no algorithms, no strangers. Your story stays private — only people you invite can see it. And it lasts forever, not just 24 hours.
Not like Instagram stories that vanish, or Facebook posts anyone can see.
Group Gift Built In
Pool money from the group, and let the birthday person pick the gift card they actually want. No more guessing, no more duplicate gifts. Delivered straight to their mobile wallet.
$5, $10, $50 — every bit counts
Amazon, Uber Eats, Apple, Spotify & more
Apple Wallet or Google Wallet — tap to use
Messages + gift card together in one beautiful story. No separate apps needed.
“We put QR codes on every table and within a month had over 200 customer stories with photos. It's become our best marketing tool — people see the stories and book reservations before they even look at our menu!”
