The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Deliverect plans bundle an order allowance per location and charge overage, so the months when delivery performs best are the months the software bill jumps.; Flipdish most plans take a percentage of order value, so the cost rises with volume and a busy site can end up paying more than a flat fee competitor would charge.
  • They diverge on capability: Deliverect covers Marketplace order injection, Flipdish covers Branded ordering site and app.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Deliverect

  • Plans bundle an order allowance per location and charge overage, so the months when delivery performs best are the months the software bill jumps.
  • It is a single point of failure between the marketplaces and the kitchen; when the middleware has an incident, orders keep being accepted by the apps but stop reaching the till.
  • Integration depth varies by POS, and on some systems orders land as a single consolidated line rather than itemised, which quietly destroys product mix and recipe level cost reporting.
  • Each connected channel per location is counted separately, so a site listed on four marketplaces costs materially more than one listed on two, irrespective of whether the extra channels are profitable.
  • Support response is tiered by plan and smaller customers on lower tiers wait longest on order routing faults, which are time critical by definition.

Flipdish

  • Most plans take a percentage of order value, so the cost rises with volume and a busy site can end up paying more than a flat fee competitor would charge.
  • Commission free refers to the marketplaces, not to Flipdish itself, and the wording in its marketing has caused genuine confusion at renewal time.
  • The company cut staff heavily after its 2021 peak valuation and narrowed its focus, so buyers outside Ireland, the United Kingdom and core European markets get less support and fewer local integrations.
  • Kiosks require hardware purchase and physical installation per site, a capital cost that sits outside the software quote and does not scale down for small premises.
  • You still fund the discounting and advertising that moves customers away from the marketplaces, and none of that appears in the platform cost comparison.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Deliverect: Does Deliverect lower the commission I pay to delivery apps?

No. Marketplace commission is unchanged. It removes tablet handling, re keying errors and menu drift.

Flipdish: Is Flipdish actually commission free?

No. It charges much less than a delivery marketplace, but most plans take a percentage of the order value it processes. Ask for the rate at your order volume.

Deliverect: Will it work with my point of sale?

It integrates with most major cloud and enterprise POS systems, but confirm whether your system receives itemised orders or one consolidated line before signing.

Flipdish: Does it replace Just Eat or Deliveroo?

It provides a direct channel alongside them. Most venues keep the marketplaces for discovery and use Flipdish for repeat customers.

Deliverect: Can it run my own ordering site too?

Yes, through Deliverect Direct, which puts first party orders through the same pipeline as marketplace orders.

Flipdish: Does it work with my point of sale?

It integrates with a number of systems and, where it does not, orders can be printed or worked on a tablet.

Deliverect: Is it available in the United States?

Yes, though its channel coverage advantage is strongest in Europe, the United Kingdom, the Middle East and Australia.

Flipdish: Which countries is it strongest in?

Ireland and the United Kingdom, with meaningful coverage across continental Europe.
