Background
OpenRest was founded in 2010 by Danny Leshem and Yoav Amit.[3] The company first focused on Web applications, before shifting towards mobile development in 2011.[1]
By 2013, 300 restaurants had launched their OpenRest-powered ordering application on the App Store. Its R&D office was based in Tel Aviv.[1] In June 2013, OpenRest and RestCloud announced a collaboration.[4]
In late 2013, OpenRest partnered with Bits of Gold to be the first restaurant online ordering system to provide bitcoin payments to all its clients.[5][6] In June 2014, OpenRest launched in French.[7] In July 2014, OpenRest integrated with BitPay to expand its bitcoin payment offering.
