Do delivery apps charge "delivery fees" to restaurants as well as to the customer? Yes, the ordinance applies to restaurant charges, but this provision reads ambiguously to me, as I don't know if third-party platforms charge the restaurant a delivery fee while also charging the customer a (possibly different) delivery fee.
- ceejayoz 6y agoI don't see what you find confusing in that wording. They can't charge a restaurant a big delivery fee. Whether they are or not currently is immaterial; that wording prevents them from going "fine, we won't charge commission, we'll just tack on a different fee that replaces it". Legislation often includes these sorts of "we know you think this is a loophole, it isn't" wordings.
