OrderHQ

What a marketplace really costs a caterer

A marketplace sends you an order for 7% and keeps the customer's email. When that customer reorders through the marketplace's own app, the cut can be 15%. With your own ordering site on OrderHQ it's 0%, every time, and the customer stays yours. Follow one $1,500 order, then a whole year.

What the animation assumes

Example rates, not a quote

7% starting and 15% repeat are illustrations. Marketplace rates vary by company and agreement; the page lets you type in your own.

Same customers, same pace

The year view gives both models the identical set of customers ordering on the identical schedule. Only where each reorder lands changes.

Card processing left out

You pay your processor's rate under any platform, so it's the same on both sides. OrderHQ never takes a percentage of an order; it's $100 per location per month.
