How FoodChow Helps You Escape 30% Commission Traps From Big Food Apps

In the ever-evolving food industry, restaurants today are facing a digital dilemma: embrace online ordering and delivery or risk losing customers to competitors who already have. But going digital often comes at a heavy price — especially with food delivery giants charging 30% or more in commissions on every order. For small and medium-sized restaurants, that kind of cost eats into already thin profit margins. This is where FoodChow comes in — a commission-free food ordering and delivery platform built specifically for restaurant owners who want control, branding, and better profit margins. Let’s dive into how FoodChow is helping local food businesses escape the commission trap and grow on their own terms.

🔁 The Commission Crisis in Online Food Delivery

Let’s be real. Platforms like Swiggy and Zomato offer great convenience to customers. But for restaurant owners, the story is very different. A 30% commission on every order may not seem like much — until you realize that for a ₹500 order, you’re losing ₹150 upfront.

Now consider this happening across hundreds of orders every month. What’s left after paying for ingredients, staff, rent, packaging, and delivery? Often, barely enough to break even.

Many restaurants feel trapped. If they leave these platforms, they lose visibility. If they stay, they bleed money. That’s exactly the problem FoodChow solves.

🚀 What Makes FoodChow Different?

Unlike most aggregator platforms, FoodChow doesn’t charge commissions per order. Instead, it provides powerful digital tools that allow restaurants to:

• Take direct online orders
• Build their own branded website & app
• Manage delivery, menu, and customer data
• Run marketing campaigns and loyalty programs Here’s how FoodChow helps restaurants take control:

💰No Commission Model = Higher Profits

FoodChow charges zero commission per order. You keep 100% of your earnings. For restaurant owners, this means:

• You can reinvest profits in staff, better ingredients, or customer experience.
• You have flexibility to offer discounts without hurting your bottom line.
• Your pricing can be more competitive since you’re not compensating for a 30% cut.

Even if you’re receiving just 50 orders a day, FoodChow can save you thousands of rupees each month.

🌐 Your Own Website & Mobile App

FoodChow helps restaurants create their own branded website and Android/iOS app — with your name, your colors, and your logo.

This builds brand loyalty, unlike third-party platforms where customers remember the aggregator, not the restaurant.

Your customers can now order from you directly — just like they would from a Domino’s or Starbucks app. You don’t need to be a tech expert. FoodChow handles the design, tech, and integration.

📊  Complete Control Over Customer Data

On other platforms, you never know who’s ordering. You don’t own the customer data — the aggregator does. That means you can’t: • Send targeted promotions
• Launch loyalty programs
• Follow up with regulars

With FoodChow, you have full access to your customer insights, order history, and behavior data. This helps you personalize experiences, reward loyal customers, and drive repeat business.

📣 Built-in Marketing Tools to Boost Visibility

FoodChow doesn’t just help you take orders — it helps you grow with the help of marketing tools. You can: • Run coupon campaigns and festive discounts
• Set up referral programs
• Connect with local influencers and bloggers
• Send email/SMS campaigns to your customer list In short, FoodChow empowers you to market your restaurant like a pro without hiring a marketing agency.

🛵 Flexible Delivery Options

You decide how you want deliveries to happen: • Use your own delivery staff. • Opt into FoodChow’s delivery partner network. • Offer takeaway or dine-in ordering with QR codes. This flexibility ensures you’re never limited or charged for features you don’t need. You scale at your own pace.

📈 Affordable & Scalable for All Types of Restaurants

Whether you’re a

• • Small mom-and-pop diner
• • Cloud kitchen
