LynkBite vs Uber Eats for restaurants
Uber Eats is the biggest delivery marketplace, and it can bring you new customers. But it charges restaurants 15–30% commission on every order, and the lower-commission plans come with less visibility in the app. LynkBite charges 0% commission for one flat $99/month, so the orders from people who already know you stop costing you a third of the bill.

LynkBite vs Uber Eats: FAQ
How much commission does Uber Eats charge restaurants?
Uber Eats offers tiered marketplace plans — commonly 15% (Lite), 25% (Plus) and 30% (Premium) per order. Lower tiers reduce your visibility and delivery area, so many restaurants end up on the 25% or 30% plans.
Is there an Uber Eats alternative with no commission?
Yes. LynkBite gives restaurants their own commission-free ordering page and local delivery drivers for a flat $99/month. On delivery orders you pay the driver’s delivery share (the greater of $6 or 10% of the order).
Can I use LynkBite and Uber Eats at the same time?
Yes. Most restaurants keep Uber Eats for new-customer discovery and move repeat customers to their LynkBite link.
How do I move my regulars off Uber Eats?
Put your LynkBite link in your Instagram bio and Google Business Profile, add a QR code and a first-order coupon to every bag, and tell walk-ins they’ll pay less ordering direct.
