How much is Uber Eats really costing your restaurant?

Most restaurant owners know Uber Eats takes a cut — but few realise how much it adds up to over a year. Between 25% and 30% commission on every order, marketing fees, and surge pricing, a restaurant doing €10,000/month in delivery can lose over €30,000 per year to platform fees alone. Use our free calculator below to see your exact numbers and discover how much you could save with a direct ordering system.

Why Uber Eats commissions eat your margins

Uber Eats charges restaurants between 15% (pickup only) and 30% (delivery) per order. On a €25 average order, that's €7.50 gone before you count food costs, staff, and rent. Over hundreds of orders per month, this becomes thousands of euros you never see.

And it's not just the commission. Uber Eats also charges for promoted listings, priority placement, and marketing campaigns — all deducted from your revenue.

How to calculate your real delivery costs

Use our simulator above: enter your monthly orders, average basket size, and the commission rate you currently pay. The calculator instantly shows what you pay to platforms vs. what you'd pay with Ordresto — a direct ordering system with a fixed 5% platform fee and no hidden charges.

The difference is your monthly savings. For most restaurants, switching from Uber Eats to a direct ordering system saves between €1,000 and €5,000 per month.

What you get with a direct ordering system

Unlike aggregators, a direct ordering platform gives you full control: your own branded ordering page, your customer data, your pricing strategy. No competing with other restaurants on the same app. No algorithm deciding who sees your menu.

With Ordresto, you also get automated social media ordering (Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger), AI-powered Google review management, GPS driver tracking, and thermal printer integration — all included.
