An honest comparison

Presence
vs foodpanda.

foodpanda rents you customers by the order. Your own Presence storefront makes them yours — with 0% commission.

What matters Presence foodpanda
Cost per order Rs 0 — your Rs 7,000/month covers unlimited orders Marketplace commission on every single order — widely reported in the 20–35% range
Your brand Your domain, your design, your story A row in their list, styled like everyone else
Customer data Yours — names, emails, order history Theirs. You can't even say thank you
The menu Photographed, add-ons, your pricing Their format, their fees on your prices
Order tracking Your own live tracker Theirs — and so is the relationship
Discovery Your regulars, your marketing, your QR on every table Their audience (that part is real)

Competitor details are approximate as of early 2026 and change often — always confirm with the vendor. All trademarks belong to their respective owners; this is an independent comparison.

Where foodpanda wins

  • Genuine discovery — new customers who've never heard of you
  • A delivery fleet you don't have to run
  • Instant credibility for a brand-new kitchen

Where Presence wins

  • 0% commission — a Rs 2,000 order is a Rs 2,000 order
  • Regulars order direct; their data builds your business, not a marketplace's
  • The tracker, the menu, and the brand experience are all yours

Keep foodpanda for discovery if it feeds you — but every regular who orders through your own site is pure margin. Most restaurants need both; only one of them is yours.
