My local Indian was taking a hit when justeat were offering a discount. They were charged by justeat to provide the app service and a percentage of the overall costs also went to justeat.
Understandable that the service provider takes a cut, but the takeaway has to decide if the meal ordered was going to be ordered anyway be it by phone or someone actually visiting the takeaway and so is it worth it. It takes longer to order by app than phone as we tend to go for the same thing. Would only be useful if we were away some where and were looking for a takeaway.
Like others I was only using the apps when there was a discount. To be honest it is easier to pick up the phone and ask for the little extras like more spice or onion. Will stick with marvin.ie to get the free meal only another three to go. I would guess we've cost them nearly a €100 so far, €18 last night cause we were out and extra hungry

I wonder if they are finding it difficult to bring takeaways on board that are already with Just Eat.
The problem might be restaurants not wanting another POS terminal;
With so many aggregators - marvin.ie / justeat.ie / feedme.ie / takeaway.ie / deliveroo.ie ect ect, wouldn't the restaurant need a terminal for each one?
I can't see them being willing to share, unless the restaurant has their own terminal that aggregators can all use.

It's a pity Marvin don't have more restaurants.
Really need to up there game there.
As I said up thread all these companies have there own system so I suppose takeaway would end up with a load of these machines.
Some more info about Marvin that I found online,
TLDR:
Danish company, headed by former Just-Eat executives.
Charge 7% commission as opposed to 12% by Just-Eat.

Feb 23, 2015
(Dublin, Ireland) Ireland is set to welcome a new player in to the online takeaway market called Marvin.ie, backed by a number of former Just-Eat executives.
Danish success story Hungry.dk has decided to expand their services, and Ireland was picked as their first international venture.
Former Just-Eat.ie Managing Director James Galvin will be heading up this new website and believes the market needs a fresh challenger brand.
“The market leader has got a little too comfortable” claims Galvin.
“Over the past few years they have gone completely unchallenged nationally, and as a result they enjoy a dominant monopoly position.
It’s time to show the market there is a better alternative”.
Whilst online ordering has become an important revenue stream for many restaurants across the country, recent hikes to the order commission to 12% by Just-Eat, caused a number of restaurants to take to social media to complain.
“I understand the issues raised by many restaurants, but we can only concentrate on what we do.
For example our commission is just 7% with no upfront fees. I truly believe the solution we have is by far a better, cheaper and technically superior product.
Ultimately, the customers will make the choice and that’s what matters” explains Galvin.
Morten Larsen, Chairman & founder of Hungry.dk believes consumers expect more from their takeaway experience both online and via mobile. “We are partnered with DeliveryHero, who have the world’s most advanced online food ordering technology, and now it will be available in Ireland too.
Our platform will have much more accurate delivery pricing using Google map technology, an option to search by specific restaurant name or ingredients and a loyalty stamp card to earn free takeaways.
We’re very excited to be in Ireland”.
Marvin.ie is set for an initial Dublin launch in May, with Android & iPhone apps set to follow soon after.0
