It suits Indian stores, restaurants, salons, clinics, dealers, news portals and travel businesses seeking website and business tools in one platform. Businesses can also use it for native ordering and reservations.

Overview

LentloSites is a website builder that also bundles online selling, customer management, billing, apps and WhatsApp tools. It is best suited to Indian small businesses—especially restaurants—that want these operations connected to one web presence. Its broad feature set is compelling, but the sales commission on its two lowest tiers deserves close attention.

Ready-made designs and drag-and-drop or section editing give businesses several ways to assemble a site. Free subdomains make it possible to start without a domain purchase, while custom-domain connections include SSL; the maker describes the pages as SEO-ready static pages. Restaurants get native menu management, reservations and ordering, although menus are text format. For more choices in that category, browse Restaurant Website Builders.

Key features

Commerce and business operations

Stores can add carts and checkout, use six supported payment gateways, accept UPI QR payments or cash on delivery, issue GST invoices and arrange courier shipping. Supported gateways include Razorpay, Cashfree, PayU, PhonePe, Easebuzz and Zoho Payments. LentloSites says customer payments go directly to the business's own gateway, UPI or bank account rather than being held or routed by the platform.

The free CRM covers customer records, a credit book, GST invoices, POS billing with barcode scanning, leads and follow-ups. That breadth makes LentloSites more relevant to businesses looking to manage day-to-day selling and customer work alongside a website than to users who only need a basic web presence.

WhatsApp, apps and data

The WhatsApp hub offers a team inbox, template broadcasts, auto-replies and order updates. It requires the business's own Meta WhatsApp Business API account, and Meta bills conversation charges directly, so the WhatsApp tools do not remove that separate cost.

Every plan includes a signed Android app and an installable web app. An iPhone App Store app is an optional done-for-you service, rather than a standard plan inclusion. The maker says customer data is separated at the database layer, backed up every 30 minutes to two independent clouds and exportable. It also claims static pages delivered through a global CDN load in under one second. Support is offered by WhatsApp, email and phone, Monday to Saturday, 10:00 AM–7:00 PM IST.

Pricing

LentloSites is freemium, with paid plans starting at ₹299/mo. All four named plans include the same restaurant features and custom-domain connection, plus an Android app and installable web app; the main difference among the first three is the commission on website sales.

• Free: ₹0 forever, with a 2.5% fee per website sale. It includes the core restaurant features, custom-domain connection and both app options. It is a useful way to start without a recurring charge, but the sales fee makes it less attractive as online revenue grows.
• Starter: ₹299 a month, billed monthly, with longer prepay periods discounted. The website-sale fee falls to 1.2%, while the core inclusions remain. It suits a business that wants a lower commission without moving to the no-commission tier.
• Pro: ₹999 a month, billed monthly, with discounts for longer prepayment. It removes the platform commission while retaining the core inclusions, making it the clearest fit for businesses whose sales make the lower-tier fees costly.
• Growth: ₹2,499 a month, billed monthly, with discounts for longer prepayment. It keeps the 0% platform commission and adds a dedicated account manager and priority support. Those additions matter most to businesses that value more direct assistance.
• Enterprise: custom pricing for custom integrations, white-glove onboarding and a priority SLA. It is aimed at businesses that need tailored setup or a defined support commitment.

The free tier avoids a subscription but not a website-sale commission; Meta conversation charges are separate on any plan using the WhatsApp hub. The Pro and Growth fees also need to be weighed against the Free and Starter sales percentages. No seat limits, usage quotas or trial terms are stated for these plans.

Platforms

LentloSites supports Android, iOS and web. Each plan includes an Android app and installable web app; the iPhone App Store app is optional.

Who it's for

LentloSites fits Indian stores, restaurants, salons, clinics, dealers, news portals and travel businesses seeking a website plus commerce and operational tools. Restaurants get the strongest category-specific fit through native menus, reservations and ordering. It is less suited to someone seeking only a simple site, or to a business unwilling to accept a sales commission on Free or Starter.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Broad business toolkit: Storefront, CRM, POS billing, leads and WhatsApp features can sit alongside the website.
• Restaurant functions are built in: Menus, reservations and ordering are native rather than described as add-ons.
• Payments stay with the business: The maker says transactions settle directly to the business's gateway, UPI or bank account.
• Apps across plans: Even the free tier includes an Android app and installable web app.
• Customer data can be exported: The maker says businesses can retrieve their data and that backups run every 30 minutes to two independent clouds.

Cons

• Free and Starter take a cut of website sales: Their 2.5% and 1.2% commissions may outweigh the subscription savings for businesses with meaningful online sales.
• WhatsApp has a separate charge: The hub depends on the customer's Meta WhatsApp Business API account, with conversation fees billed by Meta.
• iPhone App Store distribution is optional: It is not included with every plan, unlike the Android app and installable web app.
• Restaurant menus are text format: Businesses wanting a different menu format should consider whether that suits their needs.

Alternatives

For photographers choosing a website platform, Pixieset Website has a free tier capped at 15 pages, 100 photos and five blog posts, with unlimited bandwidth and SSL security. RebookMedia offers a free public directory listing and lead inquiries but no media storage on its Member plan. ShootCal Websites starts with 10 GB storage and Home and Contact pages on its free tier, while Plus provides 150 GB storage for $12 a month. Zarla has a free plan with 75 AI credits, 10 pages per site and unlimited lead-capture forms, but its sites are preview-only on that tier.

Photographers who want a paid portfolio service can compare SlickPic, whose Pro plan is $16.95 a month billed annually for 200 GB storage and unlimited albums and collections; Zenfolio, a paid option with a Basic plan at $9 a month on an annual plan, 15 GB storage and booking and scheduling for $10/mo; PhotoBiz, with a Website Package at $29 a month and 5,000 files included; and SmugMug, whose Direct plan is $20 a month billed annually with unlimited storage, privacy controls, digital delivery and Lightroom integration. These alternatives are more specifically positioned around photography than LentloSites' business operations bundle.

Verdict

Choose LentloSites if you run an Indian small business—particularly a restaurant—and want a website, selling tools, customer records and billing functions under one platform. Its most persuasive tier for growing online sales is Pro, which removes platform commission. Look elsewhere if you need only a straightforward site, want an included iPhone App Store app, or prefer not to pay the Free or Starter sales fee.
