Restaurant commission calculator UK helps you see the numbers instantly.
Aggregator fees are a complex blend of commission, delivery, and promotion costs; our aggregator fee calculator reveals your true net loss.
You bear 100% of the food and labour costs while the platform takes 35% of the revenue.
You do not own your customer's email or habits; the platform does.
In 2026, the average commission fee for Just Eat and similar aggregators in the UK typically ranges between 25% and 35% per order. This often includes a base commission plus additional fees for delivery logistics and “sponsored” placement. Our clients utilize the No Resistance Sales framework to recover 100% of this commission by migrating customers to proprietary direct-ordering ecosystems.
By moving your “Regular” customers those who order at least once a month away from these platforms and onto your own app, you instantly increase the net profit of those orders by up to 30%. That’s why a restaurant commission calculator UK is essential.
A proprietary app recovers your revenue by removing the third-party intermediary and establishing a direct, commission-free transaction path. By deploying a custom Mobile App Ecosystem, you reclaim your 30% margin and gain direct access to customer data for free push-notification marketing. This shifts your business to a "sovereign owner" of your digital territory.
You keep 100% of the transaction value (minus standard card processing).
Automated rewards keep customers coming back to your app, not the aggregator.
Use 360° tours and cinematic food imagery within your app to drive higher order values.
The cost of takeaway app development in the UK is typically recovered within 4 to 8 months for restaurants processing over £5,000 in monthly aggregator volume. Unlike a "marketing expense," a custom app is a capital investment in your Digital Operating System.
If you lose £1,000 a month in commission, a £5,000 app pays for itself in 5 months.
You are building an enterprise asset (your customer database) that adds value to your business's resale price.
