Solution · Digital Commerce
Own your customer. Stop paying 30% to aggregators.
D2C storefront, checkout, payments, hyperlocal delivery — and the first-party data the aggregators won't give you.
What restaurant + D2C founders tell us
The aggregator squeeze, in five faces.
30% aggregator commissions
Margin gone before you cook. Pricing wars race to the bottom.
Margin pain
No first-party data
Aggregator owns the customer. You can't message, segment, or retarget.
Growth lock-in
Brand dilution
Customer remembers Swiggy, not you. Repeat business goes to the platform, not the kitchen.
Brand risk
Delivery fragmentation
Third-party riders, no SLA, broken packages, no recourse.
CX risk
Building from scratch is hard
Shopify + delivery integration + payments + tax = 6 months and 12 vendors.
Build cost
