Book a demoView pricing

DoorDash Marketplace charges restaurants 15%, 25% or 30% of each delivery order's subtotal depending on the plan, and 6% on pickup. In return you're listed and marketed in the DoorDash app and Dashers handle delivery. DoorDash also offers commission-free online ordering for your own site (formerly called Storefront), which carries a payment processing fee.

Most restaurants use DoorDash for discovery and want regulars ordering direct. Servestack gives you that direct channel: a website in your brand, ordering on your domain, and marketing to your own guest list at a flat monthly price.

Where DoorDash is a good fit

What DoorDash does well

We respect the competition. A food delivery marketplace that charges restaurants a commission per order, plus a commission-free online ordering product.

  • A large base of customers who don't know you yet.
  • Dasher delivery logistics with no drivers to manage.
  • No monthly fee: you pay only when orders come in.
Why restaurants pick Servestack over DoorDash

Where Servestack fits better

  • No commission on repeat guests ordering direct.
  • You get every guest's contact details and order history.
  • Marketing automation to your own list, so regulars come back without a marketplace fee.
  • A website and ordering page in your brand, not next to competing restaurants.
FAQs

DoorDash alternative FAQs

How much does DoorDash charge restaurants?
As of October 2026, DoorDash Marketplace charges 15% (Basic), 25% (Plus) or 30% (Premier) of the subtotal on delivery orders, and 6% on pickup, with no monthly or activation fees (merchants.doordash.com/en-us/pricing).
What is DoorDash Storefront?
Storefront was DoorDash's name for its commission-free online ordering site for restaurants. DoorDash now calls it Online Ordering; orders are commission-free but carry a payment processing fee.
Should I leave DoorDash?
Usually not entirely. Marketplaces bring new guests. The money is in moving repeat guests to your own ordering site, where there's no commission. Our commission savings calculator shows what that's worth for your volume.
