Hidden fees

What the platforms don't tell you

Automatic refunds

Platforms often refund customers without verification. These deductions are taken directly from your payments. 30% are disputable with the right evidence.

Co-financed promotions

Offers like 'Free delivery' or '-20%' are partially funded by the restaurant. Read the terms before accepting a marketing campaign.

Featured placement fees

Some platforms charge extra for premium placement in results. It's advertising disguised as a 'visibility boost'.

Payment processing fees

In addition to the commission, some platforms deduct payment processing fees (0.5 to 2%). Check your payment statements in detail.

Optimisation

6 strategies to reduce your commissions

Price markup

Increase your prices by 15 to 25% on platforms compared to your dine-in price. It's allowed and practised by the majority of restaurant owners.

Direct ordering

Develop your own ordering channel (website, app) with 0% commission. Fooderise lets you launch a direct ordering site.

Rate negotiation

After 6 months with a good order volume, you are in a position to negotiate a commission reduction. Deliveroo is the most flexible on this point.

Click & Collect

Enable click & collect wherever possible. On Just Eat, the commission drops to 7-10%. The customer also discovers your physical restaurant.

Systematic disputes

Dispute all abusive refunds. With Fooderise, the process is automated and the recovery rate reaches 60%.

Profitability analysis

Calculate the real margin of each item after commission. Remove negative-margin items and focus on the most profitable ones.

FAQ

Questions about commissions

Which platform charges the least commission?
Just Eat with the restaurant delivery model (13-14%) or click & collect (7-10%). Uber Eats Lite is at 15% but with very limited visibility. On average, commissions range from 7% (Just Eat C&C) to 35% (Deliveroo with delivery).
Can commissions be negotiated?
Yes, especially with Deliveroo. After a few months of activity with a good volume, contact your account manager to negotiate. Chains with multiple locations have a better negotiation lever.
Will commissions increase?
The trend is toward stabilisation. Competition between platforms and regulatory pressure limit increases. Some European countries have even legislated to cap commissions at 15-20%.
How do I calculate if delivery is profitable?
Formula: Sale price - (Food cost + Commission + Packaging) = Margin. If this margin is negative, the dish is not profitable for delivery. Fooderise automatically calculates this margin for each item.
Should I be on all platforms?
Not necessarily. Better to be excellent on 2 platforms than mediocre on 4. Start with Uber Eats and Deliveroo (the highest volumes in France), then add Just Eat if your capacity allows.
