COVID-19: New York votes to cap food delivery app fees during pandemic
New York City Council has voted to cap the amount of commission a third-party delivery service is allowed to charge at 15% per order for delivery and 5% per order for all other types of charges.
The New York City Council says its aim is to protect small businesses impacted by the coronavirus/COVID-19 pandemic – during lockdown restaurants haven’t been able to serve food on the premises and have become reliant on food delivery companies.
