Melbourne Restaurant: Cutting Delivery Platform Fees by 90%
Popular Melbourne cafe paid UberEats and Menulog combined $4,200/month in commissions—30% of every order. Those platforms brought customers but destroyed profit margins. They tried removing their listings but online orders dropped to zero. Customers expected online ordering convenience but the cafe needed to keep the commission.
Built custom online ordering system integrated into their website and mobile-optimized. Promoted their direct ordering through social media and in-store signage with "order direct, save 10%" messaging. Kept UberEats for discovery but prominently displayed their website on menus. Added customer accounts for easy repeat ordering.
“Platform commissions were killing us. Now most customers order direct through our website. We keep the 30% that was going to UberEats. The system paid for itself in three weeks.”
