Sauce alternatives, ranked by what a month costs
What Sauce's public pages show, then Appetier and every priced alternative at the same order volume. Each figure comes from a public source.
What Sauce publishes
Sauce handles delivery for a restaurant's own orders. It sends each one to whichever national or local courier is free, and the restaurant pays a flat fee per delivery instead of a commission.
Sauce doesn't list that fee, a subscription, or a card rate. Third-party directories quote prices Sauce doesn't publish, so none appear here.
Any alternative has to settle who drives. Appetier books an Uber Direct courier for a direct order and adds no markup to the courier's price. The guest sees the real quote at checkout, and an address out of range gets none. Growth takes no commission, and its fee stops at $199.
One month at each company, lowest cost first
A month at 40 orders a day and a $30 average order, card processing included. Each company is on its cheapest plan at that volume.
Quote only, with no public price: Olo, Deliverect Direct, Chowly, Sauce, SpotHopper, BentoBox, Restolabs, Nory.
Prices checked Sep 28, 2026 · Sources
All in adds card processing at the company's published rate. A company that publishes none gets 2.9% + 30¢, the online rate on Appetier Pay.
Each company starts on its lowest-cost plan at your volume, and you can switch plans. One-time setup, hardware, and delivery costs are left out.
Popmenu sells online ordering as an add-on with no public price, so its total is a minimum.
Who includes what
Appetier's column comes first, then Sauce, then every other company. A check means the plan includes the feature.
