How can I stop paying DoorDash and Uber Eats 30% on my orders?

Move your regular customers to ordering from you directly. With Mobile Bites AI your restaurant gets its own online ordering page at 5% per order, instead of the 15% to 30% delivery apps take, and phone orders taken by our AI have no per-order fee at all.

What the apps really cost

Delivery apps like DoorDash, Uber Eats and Grubhub usually charge restaurants about 15% to 30% of each order, depending on the plan.

Example: on a $40 order, 15% to 30% is $6 to $12. On your own Mobile Bites ordering page, 5% is $2. Card processing fees apply either way.

Keep the apps for new customers, move your regulars

The apps are good at bringing in people who have never heard of you. Your regulars already know you, so there's no reason to pay a commission every time they order.

Your Mobile Bites ordering page can be set as the Preferred "Order online" button on your Google listing, so people who search for you order from you directly.

Every customer who orders by phone or on your page also gets an Order again link by text, so the next order comes straight back to you.

Phone orders without the phone tag

Many regulars would rather call. Our AI answers when your staff can't, takes the order, reads it back with the total, and texts a secure payment link. The kitchen only gets the order after it's paid.

Phone orders have no per-order fee beyond your plan.

What about delivery?

If you have your own drivers, keep using them. On the Growth and Pro plans we can also book a delivery driver for each paid delivery order: your customer pays the delivery fee and your restaurant pays no commission.

Common questions

Do I have to leave DoorDash or Uber Eats?
No. Many restaurants keep the apps for new customers and send their regulars to their own ordering page and phone line, where the fee is much lower.
What does the online ordering page cost?
5% of the food subtotal per online order. Card processing fees go to your own payment account as with any card payment.
Is there a per-order fee on phone orders?
No. Phone orders are covered by your monthly plan.
