What it costs you today

Stop giving away a third of every order

An aggregator takes its cut of every order it passes you. Bitte takes nothing at the door, and a flat 6% platform fee — minimum £0.40, card processing included — on online card payments.

  • Commission-free at the door

    Nothing at all on cash and card taken in person. The flat 6% platform fee (minimum £0.40) applies to online card payments only — never an aggregator's share of the order.

  • Weekly settlement

    Your takings are settled to you every Friday, on a predictable weekly cycle you can plan staff pay around.

Market comparison

Old ways versus the Bitte ecosystem

The same order, taken two ways. What changes is who owns the customer and what is left after the platform has taken its share.

The aggregator

  • A share of every order

    A commission on the whole basket, taken before you see it.

  • Payouts on their cycle

    Your own takings held for days before they reach you.

  • Anonymised customers

    No email, no phone number, and no way to bring them back.

Bitte

  • 0% at the door

    A flat 6% platform fee (minimum £0.40, card processing included) on online card payments, and nothing else.

  • Weekly settlement

    Settled to you every Friday through Stripe.

  • Your customer data

    Every email address and order history stays yours.

How the pricing works

Pay for the parts you use

Bitte is sold in parts, not packages. Take one, take all of them, and move up a level when you outgrow it. The price follows what you pick — nothing is bundled in to pad the bill.

Save up to 37% a year

Each part comes at more than one level — start on the lower one and upgrade in place. Combine parts and you pay less than buying them separately.

Only need the menu on a phone? That is a plan of its own, from £99/year — no till and no online orders, just your menu hosted and kept up to date.

Getting it there

Two ways an order leaves the kitchen

You handle the food. Both routes run from the same screen, with no separate courier account to reconcile.

Your own drivers

Dispatch from the same dashboard you take the order in, and keep the whole delivery fee.

Collection

Diners order ahead and skip the queue — the busiest hour of the day stops being the slowest.

Third-party courier dispatch is not wired yet. When a restaurant needs a fleet it does not have, that is a conversation rather than a switch — so it is not listed above as though it were one.

Reservations

Fill the tables, not just the bags

A booking diary is part of the plan rather than a separate subscription with a charge on every cover, from £399/year.

The Bitte booking diary for a month, with each day's covers and the bookings taken against themThe Bitte booking diary for a month, with each day's covers and the bookings taken against them

Deposits, when a no-show would hurt

Ask a large party for a deposit and keep it if they do not arrive. Stripe processing is already in the plan.

No charge per cover

The diary is part of the subscription. Filling a table costs the same whether you seat four that night or forty.

Bitte AI, your 24/7 digital manager

You cook the food. Let AI manage the rest.

Writing menus and replying to reviews should not be your evening. The built-in AI does the repetitive work, from your own menu and your own data.

Magic menu writer

Problem: writing appetising descriptions for fifty-odd items takes hours.

Solution: give it the dish name and the ingredients, then press one button.

“Burger with cheese”

“Flame-grilled beef patty topped with melted cheddar and caramelised onions, in a toasted brioche bun.”

Smart upsell engine

It learns your menu and what your customers order together, then suggests the add-on that actually fits the basket.

Frequently asked questions

Most businesses are up and running within 24 hours. Once you provide your menu and brand assets, our team handles the technical configuration immediately.

Yes. Unlike Uber Eats or Deliveroo, we don't take a slice of your sales. You pay your subscription — from £349 a year for a plan that takes online orders — and that's it. Only a flat 6% platform fee (minimum £0.40), card processing included, applies to online payments.

Yes to both. Every plan can be paid monthly or annually — annual is the cheaper of the two, saving you at least 35% against paying month by month. Start with a 30-day free trial: we take your card up front but charge nothing until it ends, then bill monthly. Switch to annual whenever you like.

Your takings are settled on a weekly cycle, every Friday, through our secure Stripe integration — a predictable rhythm to plan staff pay and stock around.

Absolutely. You keep 100% of the delivery fees when using your own staff. We provide a real-time dispatch dashboard to manage your fleet efficiently.

You get a dedicated WhatsApp line for 24/7 priority support, plus access to our full technical knowledge base and email support team.
  • Stripe and PayPal

    The money moves through providers you already know, not through an account we hold.

  • UK support

    Answered from here, by the people who build it.

  • No lock-in

    Switch plan or stop paying whenever you like. Nothing is annual by force.
