No. Launch Lite is $99/mo with no long-term commitment. You can upgrade to a full ChowNow plan or cancel at any time.

Launch Lite is our entry-level option built for restaurants that want to start with commission-free direct ordering and scale from there. Launch, Grow, and Elevate are ChowNow’s full-featured plans and include features not available in Launch Lite like automated email marketing, catering, loyalty and rewards, branded mobile app, and order aggregation.

After signing up, you’ll be assigned a dedicated Onboarding Specialist who will reach out via email with an onboarding checklist. You’ll need to submit essential assets, such as your menu and business hours. Once submitted, the ChowNow team will build your custom online ordering system and get up and running within 1-2 weeks of submitting your materials.

No. With Launch Lite, the orders you take through your own website are commission-free. ChowNow doesn’t take a cut of your direct orders.

For Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express, the transaction fees are 2.95% + $0.29 per order.

No, you can always choose what portion of the fee your restaurant pays-including nothing at all.

However, if your goal is to increase your delivery orders and reach more diners outside of your immediate area, our research shows that when restaurants share delivery costs with their diners, they can increase their delivery orders by up to 2x.
