Planning a lunch for your team or a gathering with friends? Jimmy John’s online ordering system makes it easy to arrange a group order for delivery or pickup. Here’s a straightforward guide to ensure your group gets their favorite sandwiches without any hassle.
Step-by-Step Guide to Ordering Jimmy John’s for Your Group Online
Ordering for a group might seem daunting, but Jimmy John’s streamlined online platform simplifies the process. Follow these steps to get your group order placed quickly and efficiently.
Start Your Group Order: Delivery or Pickup?
The first step is to decide whether you want your Jimmy John’s group order delivered or if you’d prefer to pick it up. When you select the delivery option, the website will immediately ask for the delivery address to confirm if your location is within the delivery zone. This is crucial for group orders, especially when coordinating catering to a specific office or event location. If pickup is more convenient, you’ll be prompted to choose a Jimmy John’s location near you. Selecting the right option at the beginning ensures a smooth ordering process for your group.
Building Your Group Order Menu
Once you’ve chosen delivery or pickup, it’s time to build your group order menu. Jimmy John’s offers two main menus online: JJ’s Menu for individual meals and Catering Menu for larger groups. Explore both tabs to see the full range of options. For group orders, especially larger ones, the catering menu is designed to offer suitable items and quantities. Click on menu categories like “Box Lunches” or “Party Platters” under the Catering Menu to view specific items perfect for groups. To see details and customization options for each item, simply click on it. After reviewing, click “Add to Order” to include it in your group’s selection.
To manage quantities for your group:
- To skip an item, just click “Back To Menu”.
- To adjust how many of an item you need, “Add to Order” and then modify the quantity in your basket.
- To remove an item, set its quantity to zero or click the “X” next to it in your basket.
- If needed, you can completely restart your group order by clicking “Cancel” or “Start Over”.
Scheduling Your Group Order
After finalizing your group’s food selections, you’ll need to schedule your order. This is particularly important for group orders to ensure timely delivery or pickup for meetings, events, or lunch breaks. Select your desired pickup or delivery time from the dropdown list, followed by the date. If no timeslots are available for your chosen day, it means online group orders are not being processed for that specific day. Plan accordingly to ensure your group order fits within the available schedule.
Checking Out and Payment Options for Group Orders
When your group order meets the minimum order requirements, the “Checkout” buttons will become visible. Click “Checkout” or “Checkout as Guest” to proceed. Jimmy John’s provides options for both registered users and guests for group orders. If you have a Jimmy John’s account, logging in will streamline the checkout process.
Checkout Options:
- Log In & Checkout: If you have an account, log in to speed up the process.
- Checkout as Guest: For quicker checkout without account creation, especially useful for one-time group orders. You’ll need to enter contact and payment information. Guest checkout primarily accepts credit cards or gift cards.
Review and Place Your Group Order
Before finalizing, select your payment method from the dropdown menu and click “Review Order”. If paying by credit or gift card, you’ll have the option to add a tip, which is a convenient feature for group orders intended for delivery. Finally, carefully review all order details, including items, quantities, delivery/pickup time, and payment information. Once everything looks correct, click “Place Order” to submit your Jimmy John’s group order.
Ordering Jimmy John’s for a group online is designed to be simple and efficient, ensuring everyone enjoys their meal with minimal effort from the organizer.
