What is Aggregator Commission?

Aggregator commission is the percentage cut that food delivery platforms (Zomato, Swiggy) or QR menu platforms take from every customer order. Typically 15-25% on delivery and 10-20% on dine-in QR.

In detail

Aggregator commissions are the single biggest cost line for most restaurants. A restaurant doing ₹10 lakh/month on Zomato is losing ₹1.8-2.5 lakh/month to commission alone.

ZaikaQR is structured to be aggregator-commission-free. Customers pay you directly via UPI; we charge a fixed monthly subscription instead. For most restaurants the math is dramatically better.

If you do mostly delivery, aggregators are still necessary for discovery — but dine-in QR ordering can and should be commission-free.

Why it matters for your restaurant

Understanding Aggregator Commission helps you evaluate restaurant software properly, talk to your tech vendors with confidence, and make better-informed pricing and operational decisions.
