Grubhub for Restaurants lists your menu on Grubhub and Seamless and charges a marketing commission on each order: 5% (Basic), 15% (Plus) or 20% (All-access). Grubhub Delivery adds a fee starting at 10%, and payment processing is extra. Grubhub Direct, a branded ordering site, is free for eligible Grubhub Marketplace restaurants apart from processing fees.
