How to stop losing this money
Every order through a delivery app hands over a fifth to a third of the ticket before you've paid for food or staff. The fix isn't dropping delivery — it's owning a direct channel your regulars actually use. With SyncBite, customers order from your own menu link, scan a QR at the table, or message your WhatsApp number, and the order comes to you at no commission. Keep the apps for discovery; move your repeat business direct and reclaim the cut shown above.
FAQ
How much do delivery apps actually charge restaurants?
Most third-party apps take 15% to 30% of each order, depending on the plan you're on. DoorDash, Uber Eats and Grubhub typically land around 25–30% on their standard tiers, and that's before extra marketing or sponsored-listing fees. Deliveroo and Talabat sit in a similar range.
How is the commission figure calculated?
We multiply your monthly orders by your average order value to get gross sales, take your commission rate off that, then add any flat fees or ad spend you entered. Multiply by twelve for the yearly number. It's a clean estimate — your real invoices may differ by app and plan.
How does commission-free direct ordering work?
Instead of routing every order through an app that skims a cut, you give customers a direct way to order — your own web menu, a QR code on the table, or your WhatsApp number. The order comes straight to you with no commission. SyncBite runs all three so you can shift repeat customers off the apps and keep the margin you've been handing over.
