GrabFood vs Foodpanda and the rest. We ranked every food delivery app still operating in Singapore by what you actually pay: subscription value, the four fees that land on every bill, and restaurant choice. Both subscriptions now sit at S$5.99/month, so the cheaper app depends on whether you buy groceries too. Updated after Deliveroo closed its Singapore service on 4 March 2026.
Singapore is down to two mainstream delivery apps, and in 2026 both subscriptions cost the same, so the real question is what each one actually discounts.
> Quick view: GrabUnlimited and pandapro are both S$5.99/month (Grab drops to about S$4.99 on the S$59.88 annual plan). The catch: delivery fees are dynamic (typically S$1.99–S$4.99, surging at peak), so only your own checkout total is accurate.
Singapore's dominant food delivery app, holding roughly 77% of the market in 2026 and carrying the widest restaurant list, including most of the restaurants that moved across when Deliveroo closed. GrabUnlimited is S$5.99/month, or S$59.88 for 12 months (about S$4.99/month), with a free first month for new members. It gives up to S$3 off the delivery fee at any store, plus free delivery and up to 30% off at GrabUnlimited preferred stores, and Grab is currently running a limited-time bonus of 20% off Food Pickup at all food stores. Grab's own claim is that members save an average of S$20 a month. Best all-round pick if you order more than a couple of times a week.
GrabUnlimited: 1 month free for new members, then from S$4.99/month on the 12-month plan.
The clear number two at roughly 22% of the Singapore market, and still the stronger app for hawker stalls and zi char. Its pandapro subscription is S$5.99/month, the same headline price as GrabUnlimited, and the benefit list foodpanda publishes on its own deals page is wider than most guides let on: unlimited free delivery on restaurant orders above S$25, **unlimited 20% off at 2,000+ restaurants**, and 20% off pick-up restaurants plus an extra 5% at 4,000+ stores (so up to 25% off pick-up). The one thing Grab does not match: pandapro's free delivery also covers groceries from pandamart, Cold Storage and Giant, so it wins outright if you buy groceries and dinner in the same session. Minimum spends and discount caps vary by brand, and foodpanda revises its tiers periodically, so confirm the current terms in-app before subscribing.
pandapro: S$5.99/month for unlimited free delivery on restaurant orders above S$25, unlimited 20% off at 2,000+ restaurants, and free delivery from pandamart, Cold Storage and Giant.
McDonald's own delivery service, running 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Ordering direct through the McDonald's app keeps you inside My McDonald's Rewards, so your spend still earns points (something third-party apps can't do), and McDonald's runs app-exclusive deals that never appear on GrabFood or Foodpanda. The minimum order value is now S$8, with a small order fee on orders between S$8 and S$11.99, and the current delivery special is a 4pc Saver Meal from S$9.90. First-time McDelivery accounts get a free 6pc Chicken McNuggets added automatically (12nn–1.30am, while stocks last). Best value if you're a Maccas regular.
Free 6pc Chicken McNuggets on your first order with a registered McDelivery account (12nn–1.30am, while stocks last); 4pc Saver Meals from S$9.90.
A Singapore-born platform built around independent restaurants, cafés and bakeries rather than chains, with over 1,500 listings for islandwide delivery, pickup and reservations, many with no presence on the big two apps. Restaurants fulfil orders themselves, so delivery fees and minimum spends are set per restaurant instead of by a platform algorithm. Best for festive bundles, larger group orders, and finding a shop the marketplaces simply don't carry.

WhyQ began as Singapore's hawker delivery app and has since moved its business to corporate and office catering, running a network of 2,000+ hawkers and restaurants feeding bulk office meal orders, buffets, event catering and pantry supplies. If you're arranging lunch for a team, it's the cheapest way to get genuine hawker food delivered at scale. For a single personal order, use GrabFood or Foodpanda instead.
Visit websiteDeliveroo shut its Singapore service on 4 March 2026, leaving GrabFood and Foodpanda as the only two mainstream marketplaces, plus a handful of specialists worth knowing about. We compared subscription plans, delivery fees and restaurant coverage across every platform still operating here, so whether you're a daily lunch orderer or a weekend-only user, you know which app to open, and where the specialists beat the big two.
Deliveroo stopped taking orders in Singapore at 3pm on 4 March 2026, ending 11 years in the market. Parent company DoorDash, which acquired Deliveroo in 2025, wound the business down as part of a wider exit that also covered Japan, Qatar and Uzbekistan. Deliveroo's Singapore market share had slipped from about 24% in 2020 to roughly 7% by 2025. Kroll was appointed liquidator, and any unused Deliveroo Plus subscriptions or account credit had to be redeemed before the wind-down.
Most restaurants that were previously Deliveroo-exclusive have since onboarded to GrabFood, which also recruited a large share of Deliveroo's rider fleet. The practical effect for consumers: one less app to check, but no fee relief. Neither GrabFood nor Foodpanda has cut delivery fees since the exit.
The delivery fee is the number the app shows you upfront, but it is not the whole bill. On a Singapore order you can expect up to four separate charges on both GrabFood and Foodpanda:
Neither Grab nor Foodpanda publishes a standing fee schedule, and both revise these charges periodically, which is why any specific figure ages badly. The only number that is reliably correct is the checkout breakdown on your own order, immediately before you pay. Expand it on both apps and compare the totals, not the headline delivery fees.
The subscriptions are the one part of the bill you can pin down. Both GrabUnlimited and pandapro cost S$5.99/month in 2026. GrabUnlimited is the cheaper subscription outright if you pay S$59.88 for 12 months (about S$4.99/month), and new members get a free first month. Pandapro matches the monthly price but spends it differently: unlimited free delivery on restaurant orders above S$25, and free delivery from pandamart, Cold Storage and Giant, which GrabUnlimited does not cover.
Most comparisons treat GrabUnlimited and pandapro as delivery-fee plans. They are not, and on a larger basket the food discount is the bigger number.
The practical test: a S$40 dinner with a S$4 delivery fee. A subscription that only waives delivery saves S$4. A 20% food discount on the same order saves S$8 before caps. So if you order larger baskets from a handful of regular restaurants, check whether those restaurants sit inside the subscription's discount list, which matters more than the delivery fee band.
Neither app is cheap at list price, and the reliable savings are the ones each platform publishes rather than the ones that show up in your feed. Verified on foodpanda's own deals page on 4 September 2026:
Code sets rotate, so treat the list above as the shape of the discounts rather than a permanent menu, and open the foodpanda deals page and Grab's Offers tab before you check out.
Neither GrabFood nor Foodpanda is consistently cheaper on a one-off order. Both price delivery dynamically, both typically land in the S$1.99–S$4.99 band on a normal order, and the gap on any given basket comes down to which promo is live and whether your bank card has a running discount. The reliable saving is the subscription, and both now cost S$5.99/month: GrabUnlimited drops to about S$4.99/month on the S$59.88 annual plan and gives up to S$3 off the delivery fee on every order, while pandapro gives unlimited free delivery above S$25, unlimited 20% off at 2,000+ restaurants, and extends free delivery to groceries. Roughly two orders a week covers either fee. Open both apps and compare the final total, delivery fee, platform fee and any small-order surcharge included, before you commit.
No. Deliveroo stopped taking Singapore orders at 3pm on 4 March 2026, ending 11 years in the market. Parent company DoorDash wound the business down as part of a wider exit that also covered Japan, Qatar and Uzbekistan, and Kroll was appointed liquidator. Most formerly Deliveroo-exclusive restaurants have since listed on GrabFood.
It depends on how often you order. GrabUnlimited is S$5.99 a month, or S$59.88 for 12 months (about S$4.99 a month), with a free first month for new members. Benefits include up to S$3 off the delivery fee at any store, plus free delivery and up to 30% off at GrabUnlimited preferred stores. At roughly S$3 saved per order, two orders a month covers the fee, so it's worth it for regular users and not worth it if you only order occasionally.
For personal orders, Foodpanda still carries the deeper hawker and zi char coverage of the two mainstream apps. For office-scale orders, WhyQ is built specifically for bulk hawker meals and works out cheaper per head than ordering individually on a marketplace app. Note that WhyQ has shifted its business to corporate catering, so it isn't the right tool for a single lunch.
Both headline plans now cost the same: GrabUnlimited and pandapro are each S$5.99 a month. GrabUnlimited is the cheaper of the two if you commit: S$59.88 for 12 months works out to about S$4.99 a month, and new members get a free first month. It gives up to S$3 off the delivery fee at any store (min. spend S$15), plus free delivery and up to 30% off at preferred stores. Pandapro leans the other way: unlimited free delivery on restaurant orders above S$25, unlimited 20% off at more than 2,000 restaurants, 20% off pick-up plus an extra 5% for pros at 4,000+ stores, and free delivery from pandamart, Cold Storage and Giant, the grocery coverage Grab does not match. That 20%-off-the-food benefit is the part most comparisons miss: on a S$40 order it is worth more than any delivery-fee waiver. So the annual plan makes GrabUnlimited cheaper on paper, while pandapro pays back harder if you buy groceries as well as meals. Either way, the plan that wins is the one matching the app you already order from most: a subscription on your second-choice app rarely pays for itself.
Both mainstream apps do. GrabFood and Foodpanda each show a live map with your rider's location, the order status as it moves from confirmed to picked up to on the way, and a running ETA. McDelivery also tracks your order inside the McDonald's app. The exception is Oddle Eats: because each restaurant fulfils its own orders rather than using a platform rider fleet, tracking depends on the individual shop. Some send a confirmation and delivery window instead of live map tracking, so check at checkout if knowing exactly when the food arrives matters to you.
Neither app is reliably faster than the other, because what decides your wait is the delivery tier you pick and the hour you order in, not the brand on the icon. Grab says openly that it built differently priced delivery tiers because charges climb during lunchtime in dense residential districts, as everyone in the same area orders at once. Its Saver option is the cheap tier, and it is cheap precisely because your order gets batched with others on a rider's route, so it arrives later; pick standard delivery if you have a fixed lunch hour. Both GrabFood and Foodpanda show a live ETA before you pay, so the only honest comparison is to open both apps on the same address at the same minute and take the shorter one. Two habits cut the wait more than any app choice: order before the noon crush rather than inside it, and use pick-up if you work near the restaurant. Foodpanda's pick-up discount runs 20%, or up to 25% for pandapro subscribers, so skipping the delivery queue is usually cheaper as well as faster.
Budget for more than the delivery fee. On a normal GrabFood or Foodpanda order the delivery fee itself typically lands in the S$1.99–S$4.99 band, but it is dynamic: distance, demand and time of day all move it, and both apps surge at peak meal times. On top of that both charge a platform or service fee per order, shown as its own line at checkout, and a small-order fee if your basket falls below the store's minimum. That last one catches people out because it is not a flat penalty: it makes up the difference between your basket and the minimum, so a S$4 order against a S$10 minimum adds about S$6, and adding another item is usually cheaper than paying it. McDelivery works the same way, applying a small order fee on orders between S$8 and S$11.99. Neither Grab nor Foodpanda publishes a standing fee schedule and both revise these charges periodically, so the only number that is reliably correct is the checkout breakdown on your own order, immediately before you pay.
McDelivery's minimum order value is S$8 (McDonald's lowered it so a single burger and coffee can go through), and a small order fee applies on orders between S$8 and S$11.99, on top of the delivery fee itself. Order above S$12 and the small order fee drops away. McDelivery runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and the current delivery special is a 4pc Saver Meal from S$9.90. A first order placed on a registered McDelivery account also gets a free 6pc Chicken McNuggets added automatically, available 12nn–1.30am while stocks last. Ordering direct rather than through GrabFood or Foodpanda is what keeps your My McDonald's Rewards points; third-party orders do not earn them.
No. Too Good To Go, the European surplus-food app, does not operate in Singapore. The listings you see if you force the app open are for other countries. The local equivalents are Yindii, a Bangkok-founded surplus-food app whose own site lists Singapore alongside Hong Kong and Thailand, and Treatsure, the Singapore app running since 2017 that sells hotel buffet takeaway boxes and near-expiry groceries. They are not substitutes for GrabFood or Foodpanda, since you collect at a set window rather than ordering to your door, but for cutting the cost of a bakery or buffet meal they beat any delivery promo code.
