Post a Deal, keep the sale, skip the delivery-app cut
Gopher Team·Sep 12, 2026·4 min read
Gopher Deals is free to list, the customer buys from you directly, and a local Gopher brings the order to their door without taking a slice of it. Here's how it works and how to get listed.
Every delivery-app pitch starts with reach and ends with a percentage. Gopher Deals starts with reach and stops there.
What a Deal is
A Deal is an offer you post — two lattes for the price of one, ten percent off a first pressure wash, a Tuesday pizza special. Listing is free. Every neighbor, Gopher, and business on Gopher sees it, and so does anyone browsing the web. When a customer wants it, they buy from you directly in Gopher's web view. You keep the customer, the pricing, and the profit.
The last mile, without the bite
If the customer wants it delivered, they tap once more and a local Gopher picks it up. The customer pays the Gopher's trip price plus Gopher's small fee. You pay nothing on the order and nothing for the trip. That's the difference between a Deal and the up-to-30% a delivery app takes off the top — we wrote the whole comparison up in Restaurant delivery without the 30% bite.
