Make your menu shine with great photos
Want to take your orderBilly menu to the next level? Adding images to your menu is a great way to showcase your vibe and boost your branding. With the right photos, customers know exactly what to expect - and your menu looks awesome too.
Here’s how to make it work (with a few insider tips).
Header Image
You can upload a header image via:
Settings → Theming → Cover Photo
This photo appears at the top of your menu, both on desktop and mobile. Think of it as your virtual “first impression”.
Best choice?
A vibrant, wide photo that captures the energy of your venue. Like a busy terrace, happy customers, or a cozy interior full of life.
Ideal ratio:
16:9 horizontal
This ratio looks great on both narrow and wide screens.
Pro tip:
Make sure there’s plenty of space around the main subject of your photo. orderBilly will automatically adjust image size to perfectly fit each device - which sometimes means zooming in. If your subject is too close to the edge, it might get cut off.
Product Photos
You can add product images via:
Catalogue → Edit Product → Add Image
Note for users with POS sync enabled:
Make sure to turn off product sync before adding images manually, to avoid overwriting your changes.
Product photos help your customers quickly understand what they’re ordering — and they just make your menu look more delicious.
Best ratio:
Images are shown in a square-ish format, so these work great:
3:2
5:4
1:1
Keep margins
Just like with header images, leave enough space around your dish or drink. This gives orderBilly room to crop and scale without cutting off anything important.
What to avoid
Here’s what doesn’t work so well:
Wrong image ratios: extra-wide or tall images can get awkwardly cropped
Photos taken too close-up: especially if the dish is touching the edges
Uploading before turning off sync: risking your photos being overwritten
