Currently the food delivery services available in the market serve as the middleman between restaurants and customers. They either charge a convenience fee from the customers or even if they’re not charging any fee explicitly, they often charge a hefty percentage from the restaurant owners due to which the prices of the dishes in the menu go up as compared to the regular prices in those restaurants.
The problem is, this is a very centralized model in which the aggregator services have too much power in their hands, they control the restaurant sales, have complete access over user’s data, which they then use in various ways.
Eatbit provides a decentralised model wherein a smart contract plays the role of the service that connects restaurants and customers.

EatBit enables you to order food from restaurants/eateries in your area directly by paying the restaurants. There is no middleman involved in this process.
