Where Your Delivery Dollars Go
Uber Eats launched from the same company that brought you rideshare, and it runs much like the rest of the delivery marketplace world. Restaurants typically pay commission on each order, and customers often see service fees added at checkout. Here's what that can add up to.
Through a Delivery Marketplace
| Commission charged to the restaurant | up to 30% |
|---|---|
| Credit card processing fee | 3% |
| Fee charged to you, the customer | up to 15% |
| Total taken, all around | up to 48% |
Ordering Direct From Tha Ross Way
| Commission charged to the restaurant | 0% |
|---|---|
| Extra fee charged to you | One small fee |
| Menu prices | Same as the truck |
| Anything else? | Nope. That's it. |
Marketplace fees vary by platform, plan, location and order. The percentages above are the maximums local restaurants commonly face across delivery marketplaces, not a quote from any one company. Check each app for its current pricing.
Shop Local. Eat Local.
Drive Dollars Back Into Des Moines.
When you order direct, your money takes the short route right back into our community. It supports a local business, local jobs and local partners instead of heading out of town in fees.
- Local jobs. Your order supports the crew cooking on Army Post Road.
- Local partners. More money for the Des Moines businesses we work with.
- Local flavor. A homegrown BBQ truck that keeps the fire going.
Real Prices. Real BBQ.
No commission on direct orders means no reason to mark up our menu. You see the same price you'd get at the truck, plus one small fee. That's the whole ride.
Take the Direct Route.
Skip Every App.
Whichever marketplace you usually use, ordering direct is the best deal for you and for us.
