Swiggy & Zomato Commission Calculator

Aggregator commission is charged per order, so the amount leaving your business grows with your success rather than staying fixed. This calculator turns your commission rate into the number that matters: rupees per year.

Summary

This calculator turns your aggregator commission rate into a monthly and yearly rupee figure, based on order volume, average order value and the share you could shift to direct ordering.

It explains what the number excludes (gateway fees, ads, delivery charges) and that the cost repeats every year your order volume stays on the aggregator.

Commission rates vary by city, cuisine and the deal you negotiated, and this calculator ignores additional charges such as payment gateway fees, advertising spend and delivery charges — so treat the result as a floor rather than the full cost.

What this number doesn't include

Commission is the headline cost, but not the only one — payment gateway fees on the aggregator, paid ad placement to stay visible in search results, and mandatory discount vouchers all sit on top of the commission percentage. The figure here is a floor, not the full cost of an aggregator order.

Why this number matters more than it looks

Commission is charged on every order indefinitely, not once — so the annual figure this calculator produces is not a one-time cost, it repeats every year your order volume stays on the aggregator. See reducing Swiggy and Zomato commission for what to actually do with that number.

What counts as "order value" when the rate is applied

Commission is usually charged on the item total a customer pays, not including delivery fees the platform collects separately — but some contracts differ, and packaging charges are sometimes included in the commissionable amount and sometimes not. Check your own payout statement against your contract rather than assuming a standard definition applies.

Frequently asked questions

How much commission do Swiggy and Zomato charge?

Commission is negotiated per restaurant and commonly falls in the 20-30% range of order value, before payment gateway charges and any advertising spend. Your own contract is the only reliable source for your rate.

How do restaurants reduce aggregator commission?

The practical lever is moving repeat customers to a direct ordering channel you own — a QR menu in-store, or a direct link shared on the bill and on WhatsApp. Aggregators stay useful for discovery; the saving comes from not paying a cut on customers who already know you.

Are the results from this calculator stored anywhere?

No. The calculation runs entirely in your browser — nothing is sent to a server or stored.
