Menuella
The marketplace alternative

Own your orders. Keep your margin.

Lieferando, Uber Eats, Wolt, Glovo and Deliveroo lease you reach — and tax every order for it. Menuella is the direct-ordering platform where the guest, the data and the margin stay yours. One page, every comparison.

01 — The commission trap

Revenue looks healthy while the margin quietly disappears

The advertised commission is only the first line on the bill. Stack mandatory promotions, paid placement, refund liability and the loss of guest data on top, and the effective cost of a marketplace order often runs above 40%.

The trap is running the business on gross revenue instead of what you actually keep. Menuella flips that: a flat monthly fee, your own storefront and domain, and every repeat order building your brand instead of theirs.

03 — Platform by platform

The catch behind each app

Different logos, the same trade-off — you rent the audience and pay on every order.

Lieferando

30%

Typical commission

Heavy commission on every bag — often in the 15–30% range — so more volume does not always mean more profit

Uber Eats

35%

Typical commission

The 'Success Tax': 20–35% commissions mean the harder you work, the more the platform takes.

Wolt

30%

Typical commission

Wolt's commission runs as high as ~30% per order in many markets — a cut taken before you cover food, staff, and rent

Glovo

30%

Typical commission

Commission and fees can significantly reduce profit margins

Deliveroo

30%

Typical commission

Commission and fees can significantly reduce profit margins

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does Menuella replace Lieferando, Uber Eats or Wolt?

For owned relationships and direct orders, yes — that is where you keep the data and the margin. Many venues still keep a marketplace for pure discovery, while Menuella becomes the profit engine for repeats and pickup.

How do I move guests off the apps?

Meet them where they already are: a QR code in the bag, on tables and on stickers, plus a short link in bio and on Google. Sweeten the first direct order with loyalty — then automate the comeback.

What does Menuella actually cost?

A flat monthly fee with 0% commission on your direct orders. A busy weekend grows your revenue without growing your software bill — the opposite of commission that never sleeps.

Can I switch without disrupting service?

Yes. Menuella runs alongside your current setup — menus, QR ordering, website and loyalty go live in days, and you move volume across at your own pace.

Do I keep my customer data?

Every email, phone number and order history from a direct order is yours — the foundation of marketing that actually compounds instead of feeding someone else’s app.
