RoadsterEats

Food delivery for less.

Commission-free ordering and delivery for independent restaurants in Alberta. Restaurants pay one flat monthly plan. Diners pay the menu price. Drivers keep every delivery dollar and every tip.

The problem

Same food. A different deal.

The big delivery apps take a cut of every order. Many restaurants raise their app prices to cover it, so diners pay more too. The busier a kitchen gets, the more it pays.

RoadsterEats earns from the monthly plan plus a 2% service fee the diner sees before paying. No minimum order.
