Delivery & Service fees.

How do we calculate our service fees?

We are changing the way we calculate delivery fees and adding a service fee.

We are making these changes to improve the overall experience for our users. The new delivery fee calculation will be more transparent and will reflect the actual cost of delivering food to your location. The service fee will help us to improve the quality of the services provided by our app and provide you with the best possible experience.

What are the changes?

Delivery fees: Our delivery fees have been reduced and are based on the distance between you and the restaurant. It helps ensure we compensate our drivers fairly. Our ultimate goal is to offer you the best and most convenient experience

Service fees: We introduced service fees to help us improve our service for you and our drivers. The service fees will be 5% of the sub-total price of your order and will be applied before any discounts with a minimum of 3.99 EGP and capped at 22.49 EGP

The changes will take effect on [24/07/2023].

Calculation: The service fee is calculated as follows:

Service Fee = (Subtotal Amount * 5%)

Payment: The service fee is due at the time of order. You can pay the service fee using the same method that you used to pay for the food.

Changes: We reserve the right to change the service fee at any time. If we do change the service fee, we will notify you in advance clearly through the app.

Dispute Resolution: If you have any questions or concerns about the service fee, please contact us on our support chat. We will be happy to help you resolve any issues.
