Having your own app with deliveries lets you reach customers at home. It increases your revenue by providing convenience to your customers who don't want to physically pick up from your stores. What if you don't have your own delivery people in-house in your team? You can now get no-commission deliveries by DoorDash in your own mobile ordering app with Orda.

In the last few years, a new breed of delivery service has emerged. These companies, like DoorDash Drive and Uber Direct, do not sell products or services themselves. Instead, they contract with businesses in a variety of fields for delivery services. What makes third-party delivery services so valuable? Speed and cost are two factors that have kept these businesses thriving in a highly competitive industry. Most services use advanced technology to create an efficient method to deliver products from one point to another. The process typically starts with a customer ordering a product from the online merchant. The merchant then contacts the third-party delivery service provider, which in turn delivers from the store to the customer.

This post covers how third-party deliveries work in your own mobile app.
