What this tool does

The delivery commission calculator quantifies how much third-party marketplaces can take from your restaurant compared with a direct-ordering scenario you define. You supply realistic averages—orders per day, typical ticket size, the app’s commission percentage, and a modest fee assumption for orders that come through your own menu or QR flow.

Who should use it

Operators who rely on Uber Eats, DoorDash, Deliveroo-style partners, or regional aggregators will use this weekly. It is equally relevant for ghost kitchens balancing multiple brands and for traditional dining rooms that only see spikes on apps during slow seasons.

How to use it

Collect a recent week’s average order value and order count so inputs reflect reality. Enter the commission percentage your contract lists—including any marketing or service add-ons. Then estimate what you pay to serve a direct order: payment processing, packaging, or a small loyalty discount.

Example

A takeaway averages 95 delivery orders daily at $18.50 per check while the marketplace keeps 28%. That is roughly $491 in commission per day, or about $14,700 over a 30-day month. If direct orders cost 3% in processing plus $0.35 per order, the same volume might incur near $560 monthly in fees.

Stop losing profit to delivery apps

Launch your own digital menu, POS, and direct ordering system with Vendora. Reduce commission pressure, keep more revenue, and bring repeat customers back to your own brand.

Stop Paying Commission – Start Direct Orders

How to use this delivery commission calculator

Use your real sales numbers to compare third-party delivery fees against direct ordering costs before you make menu or channel decisions.

1. Add your order volume and commission rate

Enter your average order value, daily order count, and delivery app commission percentage to reflect your real marketplace costs.

2. Compare direct ordering fees

Add the estimated fee for direct orders so you can see how much revenue your restaurant could keep by shifting repeat customers away from high-commission apps.

3. Review monthly and yearly impact

Use the loss summary and comparison table to understand how delivery commissions affect margins over time.
