Work out what commission is costing you.

One honest caveat: most marketplace commission already includes card processing, and a Tekeats subscription does not. Your card provider bills you separately at their rates. This sum also ignores any activation fee, and assumes you keep the same order volume when customers order direct.
Three numbers, off your own paperwork.
Every figure below comes from you. We have not pre-filled a scary default, because a calculator that guesses your rate is really an advert.
Orders a month
Count the ones you think would come direct instead. Regulars who already know your name, not first-timers the marketplace found for you.
Average order value
Your statement shows this. If you are guessing, take a normal week and divide.
Your commission rate
It is on your agreement, and it is usually different from the number quoted in news articles. Collection orders are often charged at a different rate from delivery.
What a marketplace order really costs you.
Marketplaces are good at bringing you people who have never heard of you. What they are expensive at is the customer who already knows your name and orders every week. Every order through a marketplace loses a slice of the sale before it reaches you. A direct order does not.

Commission rates vary by platform, contract, order volume and country, and most are negotiated. Check your own agreement, then put your real numbers into the calculator.
What the number does and does not include.
A comparison is only useful if it says what it left out.
Card processing is separate
Marketplace commission usually has card fees baked in. A Tekeats subscription does not: your own payment provider bills you at the rates you agreed with them. Add those in before you call it a saving.
It assumes the orders survive the move
The sum treats every order as one you keep when the customer orders direct instead. Some will not move. Start with the regulars, since they are the ones already looking for you by name.
Marketplaces still find you people
That is the one thing they are genuinely good at and direct ordering is not. Most restaurants run both: the marketplace brings the stranger, direct ordering keeps the regular.
Nothing here is a promise
It is your arithmetic, done quickly. Check it against your own statements before you make a decision on it.
