Net-of-commission margin
Net-of-commission margin is the per-dish margin after subtracting recipe COGS, aggregator commission, fulfilment cost and promo discount — the only number that should drive aggregator pricing decisions. Without it, a dish can show 35% gross margin on the POS but lose money on GrabFood. LOOP exposes this per dish per platform per day.
Net-of-commission margin in day-to-day operations
Operators meet net-of-commission margin at three moments: when a system is first configured, when a second outlet opens, and when margin is reviewed. At each point the practical question is not the definition but who owns it, where the data lives, and how quickly a discrepancy surfaces.
If net-of-commission margin lives only in a spreadsheet or in a manager's head, it drifts. When it sits in the operating system alongside tickets, recipes, payments and delivery commission, a discrepancy shows up the next morning instead of at month end — and that gap is where the money is.
LOOP handles net-of-commission margin inside the same POS, KDS and inventory platform, running on devices you already own rather than dedicated hardware. Browse the full F&B glossary or see LOOP pricing.
