DoorDash Alternative

Stop Paying 15-30% Commission Plus 6% on Pickup

Kllivo gives your restaurant its own branded ordering website with direct payments, customer accounts, and multi-branch management - for a flat monthly fee instead of per-order commissions.

The Real Cost of DoorDash

DoorDash charges 15-30% on delivery orders and 6% even on pickup. Plus there's a $6/week tablet rental fee. For a busy restaurant, that adds up fast:

200 Orders/Month
900 - 1,800
lost to commission
500 Orders/Month
2,250 - 4,500
lost to commission
1,000 Orders/Month
4,500 - 9,000
lost to commission

Based on average order value of 30 (delivery orders). Pickup orders add 6% commission on top. Plus $24/month tablet fee.

Why Restaurants Switch from DoorDash to Direct Ordering

Most restaurants don't leave DoorDash entirely. They add a direct ordering channel to shift repeat customers away from commission-heavy platforms.
