#8 overall
Pros
- Published prices for everything, including card processing for US cards (2.79% + 19¢).

- You can download your customer list to Excel, and its terms say the customer data is yours (UpMenu processes it for you).
Cons
- The app ($49), loyalty ($19), marketing ($9) and delivery app orders ($9) are add-ons per location, so the full package costs more than the base plan.
- No refunds when you cancel; the plan runs to the end of the month.
- Chargebacks are yours: $14.90 each, taken from a funds reserve.

#15 overall
Pros
- $39 a month and month to month; the pricing page lists an implementation fee only under Slice's Family plan.
- No percentage commission, and no fee on orders under $10.
- Works without Slice's POS: orders go to a Slice tablet, Square or Clover.
Cons
- The $3 fee is charged on every card order of $10 or more, plus card processing: with many orders it costs more than the $39 plan many times over.
- Your customers may pay Slice fees on top of the order; Slice doesn't publish the amount or say which orders carry them.
- No phone ordering or POS in this plan, and no app with your brand: your shop shows inside the Slice app.
- Initial term
- Month to month
- Exclusive processing commitment
- Yes, for the whole term

#20 overall
Pros
- Online ordering comes in the base package, with no extra monthly fee and no per-order commission; you pay card processing on each order (rate not published).
- Delivery dispatch for your own drivers, with Uber Direct and DoorDash Drive couriers at a flat fee per delivery when you need more, and you decide how much your customers pay.
- DoorDash, Uber Eats and Grubhub orders go straight into the POS.
Cons
- HungerRush doesn't publish its card rate, so the cost per online order can't be checked in advance.
- The branded app, loyalty and marketing are quoted modules.
- Long agreement: 36 months in the package, automatic 3-year renewals, and the remaining fees if you leave early. The 36-month price lock on the pricing page binds only if your quote includes it: the Terms let HungerRush revise prices after the first year.
