In the UK industrial and B2B sectors
For UK restaurant owners, third-party delivery platforms are no longer a marketing tool; they are a commission tax. Paying 25% to 35% on every transaction makes it nearly impossible to scale a profitable hospitality brand. Use our aggregator fee calculator below to diagnose your exact monthly loss and see the timeline for reclaiming your digital sovereignty.
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%.
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.
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.
