What is zero-commission grocery delivery?
A simple explanation of how LocalStreet helps neighbourhood shops earn more while customers pay the real menu price.
Published 2026-09-09
01
The short answer
Zero commission means LocalStreet does not take a percentage of the shop’s order value. The shop sets its own menu price, keeps what it earns, and the customer sees a transparent delivery fee instead of a hidden marketplace cut.
02
Why the model matters
A neighbourhood shop runs on small margins and repeat relationships. When a platform takes a large percentage from every order, the shop has to absorb the cost, raise prices, or stop offering delivery. Zero commission keeps the relationship healthy on both sides of the order.
03
What customers get
Customers get the convenience of ordering from a nearby shop without losing the trust that made the shop their favourite in the first place: familiar products, real offers, and a person close enough to solve a problem when something changes.
