Uber Eats positions its commission as the cost of reach, but on a thin-margin restaurant ticket, handing over 20-30% can turn a profitable order into a break-even one - and the customer pays a marked-up menu plus delivery and service fees, so the person ordering loses too.
Good Circles is the opposite arrangement: the platform takes 1% of profit, your customer saves about 10%, and a local nonprofit your customer chose gets funded with every order. Same kitchen, different rails - and the value stays in your community. See the full field on the full marketplace comparison »
Questions
Uber Eats vs Good Circles — FAQ
How much does Good Circles cost compared to Uber Eats?
Uber Eats charges 20-30% of each Marketplace order by plan (Lite 20% / Plus 25% / Premium 30%). Good Circles charges a 1% fee on profit - no ad spend, no merchant card cost, and no monthly or listing fees. If you don't sell, you don't pay.
Will I keep more than on Uber Eats?
Yes, clearly. On a $100 order with $30 of food cost you keep about $53 pre-tax (around $40 after tax) on Good Circles, versus roughly $70-$80 in revenue minus the commission on Uber Eats - and your customer saves ~10% while a local nonprofit gets funded, neither of which happens on Uber Eats.
Do my customers pay more on Uber Eats?
Usually yes - the delivery apps commonly mark up menu prices and add delivery and service fees, so your customer pays a premium. On Good Circles your customer saves about 10%, so switching is better for the person ordering too.
