⚠️ The platform price premium

Your £12 Burger Costs
£15.60 on Just Eat

Delivery platforms charge restaurants so much commission that restaurants have to inflate menu prices to survive. Customers pay more, restaurants earn less. The platform wins both ways.

The hidden mechanics

Three Reasons Platforms Cost You More

01
Restaurants inflate prices to survive
With 25–35% commission per order, restaurants must mark up their platform menu by 15–30% just to maintain the same profit margin. Customers pay more without knowing why.
02
Platforms pile on extra fees
Service fees, small order charges, and "priority delivery" upsells all add to the customer's total — none of which reaches the restaurant. The platform collects on both sides.
03
Visibility requires paid placement
Want to appear in search results? Restaurants pay extra for promotion within the platform, on top of commission. This cost gets baked into menu prices.
