Delivery apps in Cyprus can charge up to thirty percent on each order. As a result, venues have increased their prices to cope with these fees, which means you've essentially been paying that surcharge all along. In contrast, CyprusBites does not take any commission from the food, allowing some venues to offer you lower prices instead.
This is the core argument behind our product: Delivery apps take a percentage of every order, which forces venues to increase their prices. As a customer, you end up paying those higher prices whether you order through an app or walk in.
CyprusBites is different; we are all about takeaway, not delivery. You place your order in advance, walk into the venue, and pay them directly. There’s no middleman taking a cut from your food.
Venues do pay us for certain services, such as their own website, customer passes to encourage repeat visits, and tools to help fill quiet nights. However, they cannot pay for a higher position in the search results on our site or app, and our code prevents any changes that would allow this.
One exception benefits you: a venue that offers members a lower takeaway price will move up slightly in results. This is because we pass the savings on to you rather than keeping them.
