There are two ways for restaurants to settle in the Meituan, one is the Meituan takeaway, and the other is the Meituan group purchase. Because of the difference between the two businesses, the charging rules are also different. The former takes orders through the US Mission, carries out distribution links and reaches users. The latter is that users pay online first and then go to offline stores for consumption.

Since the birth of Meituan Takeaway, the average profit per takeaway is less than 20 cents, accounting for 2% of revenue. Most of the revenue of the platform needs to be invested in helping merchants to provide professional distribution, get orders and digital construction.

China's peers in the take-away platform never lack the super giants with rich background and money. Compared with them, Meituan is still a startup company. Only when businesses fully develop and benefit from the platform can the platform have a chance to survive and develop.

In 20 19, more than 80% of the merchants' commission for Meituan's take-out was 10%-20%. The real figure is far lower than all kinds of rumors and imagination, and most of these incomes need to be invested in helping merchants provide professional distribution, obtain orders and digital construction.

China News Network-Meituan responded to the commission: the profit per order is less than 2 cents, and the industry is difficult.
