Delivery App WEMAKEPRICE O to Implement Flat-Rate Plan Minimizing 'Commission Burden' in September

WEMAKEPRICE's Delivery and Pickup Service 'Gongjeongbaedal WEMAKEPRICEO' Project

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] Wemakeprice's delivery and pickup service, Wemakeprice O, is preparing measures to minimize the commission burden on self-employed store owners who have joined the platform. On the 21st, Wemakeprice announced the launch of the 'Fair Delivery Wemakeprice O' project and revealed that it is developing a flat-rate program priced at 8,000 KRW per week (server costs and 10% VAT excluded). This system is expected to be implemented in September once preparations are complete. Previously, Wemakeprice O informed franchise owners about the upcoming program through the partner page.

Wemakeprice O currently charges store owners a 5% commission fee (5.5% including VAT) for using its delivery app service. However, as the number of users increases, the cumulative commission fees also rise, proportionally increasing the burden on self-employed store owners, which led to the development of this program.

Store owners registered with Wemakeprice O can choose between a 5% commission fee per transaction or a flat-rate weekly fee of 8,000 KRW, selecting the more advantageous option. Wemakeprice expects that this policy will increase the number of delivery businesses on the Wemakeprice O platform and naturally grow the customer base, creating a virtuous cycle where customers continue to use Wemakeprice O due to the characteristic reward benefits. The mid- to long-term goal is to build recognition for 'Fair Delivery Wemakeprice O' among both store owners and customers. Since its launch in April last year, Wemakeprice O's transaction volume increased by 1,263% year-on-year as of May this year, and the number of stores grew by 739%.

A Wemakeprice O representative stated, "We will strive to introduce this flat-rate commission system as soon as possible to alleviate the burden on self-employed business owners in local neighborhoods who are struggling with management difficulties."
