Keeta commission · Bahrain · checked October 2026
Keeta doesn't publish its commission in Bahrain. It launched on-demand delivery there on 5 January 2026, onboarding over 2,000 local brands, but publishes no rate card. For context, Bahrain business owners told the press in 2026 that some delivery apps take about 25% to 30% of each order. Keeta ran a commission-reduction offer for small businesses (five or fewer locations) from 6 April to 5 May 2026, without publishing the size of the reduction.
Keeta doesn't publish its Bahrain restaurant commission, and no reputable source reports a Keeta-specific percentage. The range below is the general Bahrain market band from owner reports in the press; it is not Keeta's own rate. Keeta ran a time-limited SME commission-reduction offer whose size it didn't publish.

The rates
Your own agreement with Keeta sets your rate. These approximate ranges come from public sources, listed at the foot of the page.
| Order type | Keeta delivers | What changes |
|---|---|---|
| Bahrain market context (not Keeta's own rate) | ~25–30% | The general Bahrain band: owners quoted by Gulf Insider (July 2026) said some delivery apps take 25–30% per order. Keeta publishes no rate; this isn't a Keeta figure. Jahez's CFO put Bahrain and Kuwait commission at 20–25% (March 2025). |
Card processing
Keeta doesn't publish a card fee for Bahrain, or say whether payment processing is inside the commission. Check your contract.
VAT on the commission
Bahrain charges 10% VAT, and delivery apps generally add VAT to their fees. Keeta doesn't publish how VAT appears on its invoices, so check your monthly statement.
SME support offer
At launch Keeta offered a commission reduction to partners with five or fewer physical locations over a 30-day window, 6 April–5 May 2026 (TradeArabia). It didn't publish the size of the reduction or the underlying rate; treat it as a promotional window.

Figures are estimates from the numbers you enter. Keeta agreements differ by plan, location and volume, and platforms change their fees, so your Keeta payout statement is the source of truth. The direct column assumes every order is paid by card at about 3%, before your ordering plan's fee; cash and pay-at-counter orders cost nothing.

Worth knowing
Proposed cap. Bahraini MPs put forward proposals in July 2026 to regulate delivery apps, including a study of a ceiling on commissions. Nothing had been passed when we checked, so there is no legal cap today.
Keeta, the international arm of China's Meituan, officially launched on-demand delivery in Bahrain on 5 January 2026, onboarding more than 2,000 local brands. It hasn't published a rate card, and no reputable source reports a specific Keeta percentage.
The 25–30% band above describes the Bahrain market Keeta competes in, not Keeta's own rate, which sits in its contracts.
A Keeta 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.
