Online ordering fee calculator

Enter your orders to estimate each option's monthly fee, commissions, fees per order, card processing and setup, per month and per order. What your customers pay is shown apart. Direct ordering doesn't bring you new customers by itself; delivery apps do.

Data as of Oct 2, 2026. The figure shows where the calculator below starts, before you change a number. Each row's breakdown is in its table. Estimates from published prices and terms. Taxes and the fees the apps charge your customers aren't included. Your quote can differ; check it before you sign.

The reference scenario, and what we assume

Reference: 400 online orders a month, $30 ticket, 70% pickup

The calculator starts with

Online orders a month: 400
Average ticket: $30
Picked up by the customerThe rest are delivered.: 70%
Months to compare: 12

We assume

2.9% + 30¢ for card processing where a platform does not publish its rate. In the table: Processing rate assumed.
Your customers pay the delivery of your direct orders. If you pay it: $7.99 per order, unless you change it.
App deliveries to members: 30% Estimate without a verified source.

What the estimate doesn't count

New customers: delivery apps bring you theirs. The fees those apps charge your customers aren't included either.

App deliveries to members, like DashPass or Uber One (%)

Some plans charge more on these orders.

Assume 2.9% + 30¢ for card processing where it isn't published

On: platforms that don't publish their online card rate are estimated at this rate and flagged. They're never shown as the lowest estimate.

Assumptions

The estimate doesn't count new customers: delivery apps bring you theirs, and some direct platforms help you get found (a discovery network, Google), which the score weighs apart.
The delivery apps also charge your customers their own fees, which aren't included.
App deliveries to members (DashPass, Uber One): 30% unless you change it, an estimate without a verified source.
Delivery cost per direct order you pay: $7.99 unless you change it, the starting price of a delivery service for direct orders.

What the platform charges your customers on your orders (service or support fees). It's never added to your cost. The fees the delivery apps charge your customers aren't published per restaurant, so they aren't here.

Estimates from published prices and terms. Taxes and the fees the apps charge your customers aren't included. Your quote can differ; check it before you sign.

Estimates based on the prices in our catalog (each vendor's own site unless the source says otherwise) and our reference assumptions. Prices you can only get with a quote are flagged, never counted as $0. The fees the apps charge your customers and taxes aren't included.

The calculator adds what each option charges your restaurant for the orders you enter: the plan's monthly fee, the orders over the plan's limit, commissions by channel, fees per order, card processing and setup, spread over the months you choose. Delivery apps charge one commission on the orders they deliver and another on pickup orders, so the pickup share changes their cost a lot.

On direct orders your customers pay the delivery fee unless you say otherwise. If you want to pay part or all of it, set that share and the cost of each delivery.

Some vendors don't publish their card processing rate. By default the calculator estimates them at the assumed rate shown in the form and flags the row; turn it off to see them as incomplete. An estimate with an assumed rate is never shown as the lowest one.

A direct ordering platform doesn't bring you new customers by itself: it's for the customers who already know you. Promotions, like a few weeks without commission, are shown apart and never change the totals.
