The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Dominos rewards points only accrue on orders placed through Domino's own app or website, not orders placed via third party delivery marketplaces, so switching between channels resets the incentive.; Ventoy the repository ships prebuilt binaries that are difficult to reproduce from source, so several Linux distributions refuse to package it and security teams in regulated organisations will usually reject it.
  • They diverge on capability: Dominos covers Order ahead and tracking, Ventoy covers In-place ISO boot.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

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

Dominos

  • Rewards points only accrue on orders placed through Domino's own app or website, not orders placed via third party delivery marketplaces, so switching between channels resets the incentive.
  • Delivery fees, service charges and driver tip prompts still apply on app orders and can add several dollars to the menu price shown.
  • Order tracking accuracy depends on individual franchise store operations and has been inconsistent in practice at busier locations.
  • Points expire after a period of account inactivity, so infrequent customers can lose accumulated progress toward a free pizza.
  • As with comparable chain apps, using it means giving up order history and location data in exchange for the points programme and occasional app-only deals.

Ventoy

  • The repository ships prebuilt binaries that are difficult to reproduce from source, so several Linux distributions refuse to package it and security teams in regulated organisations will usually reject it.
  • Development depends on one maintainer, so a period of inactivity leaves compatibility fixes for new distribution releases unaddressed with no second party able to cut a release.
  • Secure Boot works only after enrolling the Ventoy certificate through MokManager at the machine, which is a manual step at every device and is blocked outright on locked-down corporate firmware.
  • A small number of images still fail to boot in place and need workarounds, so a technician can discover mid-job that the one ISO they need is the one that does not work.
  • The data partition is exFAT by default, which means no file permissions and no journal, so a stick pulled during a copy can corrupt the whole image set rather than one file.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Dominos: Is the Domino's app free?

Yes, joining and using it costs nothing beyond what is ordered.

Ventoy: Can I still use the USB stick for ordinary file storage?

Yes. The data partition mounts as normal removable storage and files that are not bootable images are simply ignored by the menu.

Dominos: Why does Domino's push its own app over delivery marketplaces?

Domino's has stated its own channels avoid the 15 to 30 percent commissions third party delivery marketplaces charge, so it keeps more margin per order.

Ventoy: Do I need to reinstall Ventoy when a new distribution version comes out?

No. Delete the old ISO and copy the new one. You only rerun the installer to upgrade Ventoy itself.

Dominos: Do I earn points ordering through Uber Eats or DoorDash instead?

No, Piece of the Pie Rewards only accrues on orders placed directly through Domino's own app or website.

Ventoy: Is it safe to use in a company that audits open source?

Often not. The unreproducible prebuilt binaries in the repository are a genuine audit finding and have blocked approval at organisations with supply chain review.
