What does Uber Eats charge a restaurant, plan by plan?
Uber Eats has three marketplace plans and a self-delivery option. Each one charges a percentage of the order. A higher plan costs more per order and gives the restaurant more visibility in the app.
| Plan or fee | What the restaurant pays | Notes from Uber Eats' page |
|---|---|---|
| Lite plan, marketplace fee | 20% of each delivery order | In some cities Lite starts lower. Uber Eats gives Portland as an example: 15% on delivery orders. |
| Plus plan, marketplace fee | 25% of each delivery order | 0% intro rate for 30 days. Uber One orders cost an additional 5%. |
| Premium plan, marketplace fee | 30% of each delivery order | 0% intro rate for 30 days. Uber One at no additional cost. Ad spend matched up to $100 a month. |
| Self-delivery (your own drivers) | 15% of each order | Uber Eats lists a 25% fee when you use delivery people in its network for farther-away deliveries, or when your own delivery staff is not available. |
| Pickup fee, all plans | 7% with validated in-store pricing, 10% without | The 7% rate needs proof that in-app pickup prices match in-store prices. |
| Webshop (ordering on your own site) | 2.5% + $0.29 per order | Uber Eats calls this an order processing fee. |
| Uber Direct (delivery for your own orders) | Starts at $7.99 per delivery | A separate delivery service, priced per delivery. |

What percentage does Uber Eats take from restaurants?
Uber Eats takes a marketplace fee of 20% of each delivery order on its Lite plan, 25% on Plus and 30% on Premium, per its pricing page read on 4 October 2026. A restaurant that uses its own drivers pays a 15% self-delivery fee instead. On the Plus plan, orders from Uber One members cost an additional 5%.
Across delivery apps in general, the base commission runs 15% to 30%, and the blended real cost is 25% to 35% once delivery, marketing and processing fees stack. Those two ranges are Zayos estimates across marketplaces, not Uber Eats' published rates. See what blended delivery commission means.
How much does Uber Eats charge for pickup orders?
Uber Eats charges a 7% pickup fee on every plan when the restaurant has validated in-store pricing. That means the restaurant has shown that its in-app pickup prices are the same as its in-store prices. Without that validation, the pickup fee is 10%.

Does Uber One cost the restaurant extra?
It depends on the plan. Uber One is Uber's paid membership for customers. On the Premium plan a restaurant takes part in Uber One at no additional cost. On the Plus plan the restaurant pays an additional 5% on Uber One orders, on top of the 25% marketplace fee.

What would you keep on your own site instead?
On your own ordering site there is no commission. Zayos is commission-free online ordering on the restaurant's own branded site. The price is flat: $399, $499 or $599 per location per month, with no setup fee, month to month, no contract. The diner pays a flat $0.99 service fee on pickup and delivery. The restaurant never pays it.
With Zayos the restaurant keeps 100% of food revenue, and 100% of tips on pickup and dine-in. On delivery the tip goes to the driver.
You do not have to leave Uber Eats. The $499 Operator + Tablet plan brings Uber Eats, DoorDash and Grubhub orders into one feed with your direct orders, on one kitchen tablet. Restaurants are live on Zayos and taking direct orders today, including Farooj Abo Alabed and Melt N Dip.

How we got this
- What the apps charge
- Orders × share through apps × average order × commission rate × 12 months × locations.
- What Zayos costs
- Plan × locations × 12 months. Nothing per order.
- Commission you stop paying
- App sales × share moved to direct × (commission rate minus 3% card processing, which a direct order still pays).
Total: $0 - Money you keep
- Commission you stop paying, minus what Zayos costs.
- Break-even
- Plan ÷ (average order × share moved to direct × (commission rate minus 3%)).
