This to me is what killed delivery as a service. It doesn’t work even when they are charging what works out to be double the salary the restaurant pays its own delivery people. And it works out for no one, restaurant, driver, even the delivery as a service providers since they are all hemorrhaging money.
Even the VCs ultimately don't make a profit on it. I think the only winners here are the employees of the delivery companies who get paid hefty salaries to work on a guaranteed failure.
It’s a fake industry held up by VC money.
