Regulate third-party food delivery providers

Petition Details

1) Impose a cap on the commission they are entitled to charge, up to 20%, following the example of the USA.

2) Prevent them from charging commission on the VAT of an order. VAT does not belong to the provider to be charged commission.

3) Make them pay their riders and staff minimum wage.

Additional Information

These companies are devouring UK restaurants with exorbitant fees that are magnified by accounting tricks, like for example charging the commission on the gross and not on the net amount, this makes it unprofitable to trade via their platforms. It is also impossible for a restaurant to trade without being in their platform.

They compete directly with the restaurants by establishing their own "delivery kitchens" with far less costs, both in terms of delivery but also fixed costs and staff costs.
