Rates as Uber Eats publishes them for restaurants in New Zealand. Other apps and countries
The rates
Commission is a percentage of the order, and who delivers it sets the rate. Here is what Uber Eats publishes for restaurants in New Zealand.
| Plan | Uber Eats delivers | You deliver | Pickup |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | 30% | 16% | 8% |
Card processing
Included in the commission. Uber Eats lists payment processing in every plan, with no separate card fee.
GST on the commission
Yes. Uber Eats' terms say its fees exclude GST and the restaurant pays GST on top, at 15%. Uber requires merchants to be registered for GST, and registered businesses can claim it back.
Activation fee
$700 plus GST for each new location, taken from your payouts in weekly instalments, and $350 for each location after that.
Device damage fee
$200 plus GST for each device that's lost, damaged or not returned.
Ads
Optional in-app advertising, charged separately.

One $40 order on Uber Eats
Uber Eats keeps 30.0% of every order — $3,600 a month, or $43,200 a year at your volume.
The same order on your own ordering page
Moving 90 orders a month (30%) to your own link keeps $972 a month in your business — $11,664 a year.
Figures are estimates from the numbers you enter. Uber Eats agreements differ by plan, location and volume, and platforms change their fees, so your Uber Eats payout statement is the source of truth. The direct column assumes every order is paid by card at about 3%; cash and pay-at-counter orders cost nothing. See how direct ordering works on commission-free online ordering.
Worth knowing
Uber Eats works out its percentage on the item price including GST.
Pickup and activation both went up in 2026: in April, Uber's New Zealand pricing page listed pickup at 6% and activation at $500.
Uber also sells Webshop, ordering on your own website, at 25% when Uber delivers and 6% when you deliver or for pickup.
An Uber Eats alternative for your regulars
A delivery app is a good way to be found and an expensive way to serve people who already know you. Give your regulars your own ordering link, and the commission on their orders stays in your business.
