# How to Create a Secret Menu

## Secret Menus will allow you to showcase a special menu for a segmented group of people.

To set up a secret menu, navigate to the segments page \> **+add segment** \> Write in a segment name, then add a secret password.

You can leave it as an unrestricted segment to let anyone who knows the password view and order from the menu, or restrict it to certain phone numbers. 

You will then navigate to the menus page. 

Select the menu you are using \> Segments

You will then select the segment that can view the menu.

*Note: Secret Menus is only available in menus view. You cannot use this feature using catalog browsing. *

Once you are ordering, you will see this at the bottom of the menus screen on the QR ordering flow:

Then, input the secret password!

It is recommended that you always contact your account manager or reach out to GoTab chat support after configuring a secret menu to ensure it is working correctly.
