PRACTICAL GUIDE

Meal delivery apps: compare the complete order

Compare the final basket rather than a menu price

Delivery apps show restaurant options after an address is entered, but a dish price does not represent the whole amount payable. Delivery charges, service fees, basket minimums and extras depend on the offer. Compare the total before confirming and identify the seller. A temporary promotion is not enough to establish the cost of using the service regularly.

Know who handles a problem with the order

The platform, restaurant and courier may be responsible for different stages. Retain the order summary and use the stated complaint channel if something is missing or damaged. For allergies, direct discussion with the restaurant remains essential: an app filter cannot establish the absence of cross-contact. Recheck availability for the exact delivery address and requested time.
