Your menu is quietly manipulating you. 📷

No dollar sign on prices? Diners spend about 8% more.

DoorDash Pickup vs Delivery Commission: 6% vs 30% on the Same Order (2026) | DirectOrders

On the biggest delivery app a pickup order costs the restaurant 6% and a delivery order up to 30% (DoorDash's published plans: pickup 6%, Basic 15%, Plus 25%, Premier 30%). On a $30 order that is $1.80 against $9.00 for the same food.

A driver costs money. The app between a restaurant and a guest who already chose it costs more. On the restaurant's own site the commission is zero and a flat delivery fee replaces the 30%.

DirectOrders is the online restaurant ordering system and growth engine for independent restaurants: your own ordering site and app, delivery, marketing and Voice AI, zero commission.
