Fleet-scale courier pricing, baked straight into the POS. Every restaurant on Andromeda gets on-demand riders without a separate tablet, a separate login or a separate contract.
"Running your own drivers only works until Friday at 8pm. Uber Direct catches the spike — and now it's one click from the pass."
Today we're announcing a partnership with Uber Direct. From this week, every restaurant on Andromeda can book on-demand couriers directly from the POS — no new app, no separate rate card, no procurement conversation.
This is the second pillar of what we call Deliver Plus: a courier network that sits behind the same auto-dispatch engine your own drivers use. If your team's busy, the order fires to Uber Direct automatically. If your team's quiet, it goes to them. You don't have to choose which model to run — you run both at once.
We've done the commercials with Uber at scale. Individual restaurants get fleet pricing without the fleet-sized paperwork.
Andromeda decides: own driver or Uber rider, whichever is faster on the postcode right now. Peak nights stop being a staffing lottery.
Whether the rider is one of yours or an Uber rider, the order and the GPS trail sit inside the same Portal and Mission Control — same view, same reports.
The headline benefit is cost. Most independent restaurants who look at Uber Direct directly are quoted rates built for a restaurant doing a few orders a night. On Andromeda, you plug into pricing that reflects thousands of sites and tens of thousands of orders a week — without having to be the size of a chain.
The quieter benefit is flexibility. Running your own driver fleet is great when volume is predictable. It is not great on a freezing-cold Thursday in February, when two drivers call in sick and the aggregators still send you tickets. Deliver Plus + Uber Direct means you stop overstaffing for the peak and stop undercapacity on the edge cases.
Existing Andromeda customers can turn Uber Direct on from their Portal today. New customers will see it as a standard option in every demo. Nothing to install, nothing to configure beyond your coverage zones.
