Baltimore City Council approves fee cap on Grubhub, Door Dash, other restaurant delivery apps

A cap on fees charged by third-party food delivery apps was approved Monday evening by Baltimore City Council and will become effective as soon as it’s signed by Mayor Brandon Scott. The cap, which is the first bill passed by City Council under the leadership of new Democratic Council President Nick Mosby, bars delivery apps from charging more than 15% of the total cost of an order. Typically, apps such as Grubhub, Door Dash, Uber Eats and Postmates take a 30% cut.
