Essentials plan ROI calculator · £49 / site / mo

Own your orders. Stop leaking commission.

Every aggregator order costs you 12–30% in commission. Essentials gives you a branded ordering website, the till, and Portal — so the next order a customer places is yours, not theirs. Drag the sliders to see what that's worth to you.

Essentials · £49 / mo

See what you'd keep if your regulars ordered direct.

Essentials is the plan most takeaways start with. You get a branded ordering website, the till, menu management and Portal. Every order that comes in direct is commission you don't pay — month after month, forever.

!
Commission isn't a setup cost. It's rent.

You pay it on every order, every week, every year. Shifting even 15% of your aggregator volume to a direct channel pays for Essentials several times over — and compounds as your regulars learn where you are. Essentials stops the meter running.
