At this point, you're entering stuffs from the outside, so you're increasing the risk... it's pretty low
Agreed. For most of the restaurants around me, the delivery fee is $0.99 and it's the lowest of the 3 that fees Uber charges (small order, service, delivery). Would've been nice if they temporarily waived all 3 of them. Saving $0.99 isn't exactly going to make me jump to place an order.
I guess if restaurants are desperate for business they could offer discounts that cover the costs of uber delivery.TomRFD wrote: ↑ Agreed.

"Uber needs to come close to breaking even" - you're missing the fact that Uber takes 30% of the final order amount from the restaurant, and the "Service Fees" or "Delivery Fees" are additional on top of that.
I generally don't trust BlogTO, and unfortunately they didn't provide a reputable source for their 30% claim. Has this been verified by a reputable source yet?Leverage wrote: ↑ "Uber needs to come close to breaking even" - you're missing the fact that Uber takes 30% of the final order amount from the restaurant, and the "Service Fees" or "Delivery Fees" are additional on top of that.
Uber waiving the $0.99 "delivery fee" they make up is nothing but a publicity stunt. Waive the 30% fee to the restaurant and I'd be impressed.

Edit: I googled and found some who seem to verify, but it's all people claiming to work for restaurants... guess that explains why menu items are generally more expensive with these delivery services!
Uber Eats charges restaurants a one-time fee between $350 and $500, depending on how many extras they want, such as photography, said Park. The app then charges a 30 per cent commission on each order, though some restaurants may pay a slightly different fee.
And how will it get delivered to my house? No way I'm going to stand in line at a restaurant with a bunch other idiots.HP_John wrote: ↑ A lot of restaurants the delivery fee is only $1, Uber makes money by charging restaurants 30% & on top of that, they charge a service fee (10% of your order cost). So basically this promo amounts to $1 off, not really a deal. If you want to support a restaurant, call & order from them directly, so they don't have to pay Uber 30%.
At this point can you trust the chicken? The cow? The fish? lolhusamus156 wrote: ↑ Can we trust cashiers though?...

Can you trust the cook and other staff that will prepare/touch food for you? At least the "other" idiots in line won't be touching your food.
