What does a commission on every online order cost?
A commission is paid on every sale: the more your customers order online, the more you hand over. A flat-rate subscription does not move, and every extra order stays yours.
The mechanism is simple: a platform paid by commission usually collects your customer’s payment, keeps its percentage and pays you the rest. Some contracts add fixed fees per order. Your rate is set out in your contract.
Example calculation — hypothetical figuresTake a 20% commission, an average order of €30 and 300 online orders in the month. Online sales come to €9,000, the commission to €1,800. With Pizza Planner Pro, the cost is the subscription: €74.90 per month, whether you take 30 orders or 300.
These figures illustrate the mechanism, they measure nothing: redo the calculation with your own.
If your customer pays by card at the counter, only the usual fees of your card terminal apply, as for a sale in the dining room.
