EazyDiner for Restaurants (2026): How the Partner Programme Works and Who Pays

EazyDiner is a table booking and bill payment app that leans towards premium restaurants, bars and hotel dining. A restaurant joins its partner programme, offers deals that guests book through the app, and pays EazyDiner through fees and commissions that it negotiates and doesn't publish. Most of EazyDiner's revenue comes from restaurants and other partners, and the discount you fund for Prime members is usually the biggest cost of being listed.

The company's FY25 filings show how the money flows. Below we cover how the programme works, what EazyDiner earns and from whom, what a Prime table costs you, and when listing makes sense.

Key takeaways

• Restaurants and partners pay most of the bill. Of ₹136 crore of service revenue in FY25, ₹63.5 crore was "market support fees" and ₹38.8 crore was PayEazy commissions. Prime memberships brought in ₹10 crore.
• Prime promises guests at least 25 percent off. EazyDiner sells it as "guaranteed 25% off at thousands of Premium Restaurants and Bars". That discount is the deal you agree to offer.
• Bank offers sit on top of your deal. EazyDiner says PayEazy discounts "are over and above the restaurant discounts", and its FY25 accounts show ₹72.3 crore of payment discounts as its own expense.
• You get the guest's details. EazyDiner's terms say it shares customer details with the restaurant, which "may also contact customers for the given reservation or for any promotions afterward".
• No rate card is published. Get the commission, any fixed fee and your deal terms in writing before you sign.

How EazyDiner works for a restaurant

A guest finds your restaurant in the EazyDiner app or website and books a table with one of your deals attached. The deal might be a percentage off the food bill, a set menu or a drinks offer. Prime members see a separate Prime deal, which EazyDiner promises will be at least 25 percent off.

At the end of the meal, the guest can pay you directly or pay through PayEazy, EazyDiner's in-app payment. If they pay through PayEazy, they can add a bank card offer on top of your deal. They don't need a booking to use PayEazy at a restaurant that accepts it.

EazyDiner positions itself as a reservation service. Its terms say it "does not accept any liability arising out of your dining experience regarding quality of service or food", so complaints about the meal come to you.

Two more details from those terms matter to a restaurant:

1. Guests can't stack offers. "Unless mentioned explicitly, no two offers can be combined." Prime deals also can't be combined with "in-house restaurant offers".
2. Pulling a live deal can cost the guest a refund. EazyDiner refunds prepaid deals if the "restaurant discontinued the deal during the deal duration". Agree deal periods you can honour.

How to list your restaurant on EazyDiner

You register on EazyDiner's partner restaurant page with your restaurant name, contact person, phone, email, address and city. The page gives a partner helpline, +91 78610 04400, and the contact page gives contact@eazydiner.com for listing requests. A sales executive follows up; there's no self-serve rate card.

Before you sign, ask for these in writing:

• the commission on PayEazy bills and on bookings, and what it's charged on
• any fixed or "market support" fee, and what it buys in visibility
• your Prime deal, your regular deal and the periods each runs
• the payout cycle for PayEazy money
• whether your listing goes to Google, and how to opt out

That last one is real. EazyDiner's contact page handles requests for "Google reserve or request for opt-out from Google reserve program". In April 2026, Times of India reported that Google's AI Mode in India finds tables by scanning Zomato, Swiggy and EazyDiner and linking to their booking pages.

How EazyDiner makes money

EazyDiner Private Limited is profitable, which is unusual for a consumer app in India. According to its Registrar of Companies filings, as reported by Startuppedia in March 2026, it made ₹139 crore of revenue in FY25, up from ₹62.5 crore in FY24, and a net profit of ₹11.7 crore. Here's where the ₹136 crore from services came from:

The filings don't define "market support fees" in what's been reported. The name points to marketing and promotion money from restaurants and other partners, such as brands and banks. Either way, about three-quarters of EazyDiner's revenue comes from fees and commissions rather than diners' memberships. Prime subscriptions, the product guests pay for, are the smallest of the four named lines.

The biggest cost line points the same way. EazyDiner spent ₹72.3 crore on PayEazy payment discounts in FY25, up from ₹4.6 crore the year before. That's more than half its ₹125.2 crore of total expenses, and it's the money that makes paying through the app attractive to guests.

What EazyDiner costs a restaurant

The commission

EazyDiner doesn't publish one. The figures that exist are old or second-hand:

• In 2020, its then chairman told ET HospitalityWorld it was launching delivery and takeaway "at a commission of only 5%". That was for delivery, not dine-in.
• Owners report dine-in apps generally at about 5 to 10 percent of the bill plus GST, on Reddit in 2026, though that thread is mostly about Swiggy and Zomato.

Treat these as the start of a negotiation. The FY25 numbers tell you the commission on PayEazy bills is a real revenue line, so ask what percentage applies to yours.

The deal you fund

This is the cost that matters most. Prime "guarantees you a minimum 25% at top restaurants", at over 2,000 of them, according to the Prime page. A guest who pays ₹245 for a month of Prime expects at least that much off your bill.

The guarantee is EazyDiner's, but the discount is yours. If a member saves less than the membership fee, EazyDiner refunds the difference or extends the membership; you don't. What you give is the 25 percent on every Prime table.

The bank discount, which isn't yours

PayEazy offers are a separate layer. EazyDiner's PayEazy page lists dozens of card offers, such as 20 percent off up to ₹500 on its own IndusInd Platinum card and 30 percent off up to ₹1,500 on HSBC Premier cards. It says these discounts "are over and above the restaurant discounts".

That's why they appear as EazyDiner's own ₹72.3 crore expense, not yours. They do matter to you in one way: a guest with a good card offer has a strong reason to pay through PayEazy, which puts the bill inside EazyDiner's commission.

A worked example

Take a bar and grill in Gurugram with an assumed bill of ₹4,000 for a table of four, food and drinks. The table books through EazyDiner as Prime members, and the restaurant's Prime deal is 25 percent off. The guest pays through PayEazy with an EazyDiner IndusInd Platinum card. We'll assume a 6 percent commission plus 18 percent GST, charged on the bill after your deal.

The guest saved ₹1,500, but only ₹1,000 of it came from you. Your deal still cost about five times the ₹212 commission and GST. You keep about 70 percent of the original bill.

The bank discount assumption is the one to check. If your agreement charges commission on what the guest pays, or treats the card offer differently, your number changes. Ask EazyDiner to run this sum for your restaurant before you sign.

When EazyDiner is worth it

Here's our view: EazyDiner suits restaurants with spare tables and margin to give away, and works badly as a way to process your regulars' bills. A guaranteed 25 percent is a lot to give a guest who'd have come anyway.

It tends to work for:

• Premium venues and bars with high drinks margins. A 25 percent deal hurts less when liquor and cocktails carry the bill. EazyDiner's own audience is built around this segment.
• Slow slots. Run the Prime deal and your best offers on weekday lunches and early evenings. Our guide to filling slow days has other ways to do it.
• Restaurants that will use the guest data. EazyDiner shares the guest's details and lets you contact them later. Use that to bring them back directly, without a deal attached.

It works badly when your regulars switch to it for the discount, or when your margins can't carry 25 percent off. Check every month what share of EazyDiner tables are first-time guests. If most of them aren't, you're renting back your own customers.

EazyDiner does deter no-shows on its side. Its terms say a first missed booking gets a warning and "continuous 3 no shows will result in the deactivation of the users' accounts". That doesn't cover phone or walk-in bookings; our guide to no-shows and deposits covers those.

EazyDiner vs Swiggy Dineout and District

All three sell the same thing to a restaurant: discovery, bookings, deals and bill payment through the app. The difference is the audience and who funds the discount.

For the detail on the other two, see Swiggy Dineout for restaurants and cover charges in the District app. If you list on more than one, keep your deal terms consistent so a guest doesn't find a better price for the same table elsewhere.

FAQ

How do I become an EazyDiner partner restaurant?

Fill in the form on EazyDiner's partner restaurant page with your restaurant name, contact person, phone, email, address and city, or call +91 78610 04400. A sales executive then contacts you. Before you sign, get the commission, any fixed fees, your Prime deal and the PayEazy payout cycle in writing.

What commission does EazyDiner charge restaurants?

EazyDiner doesn't publish a rate. In 2020 it announced a 5 percent commission for delivery and takeaway, and owners report dine-in apps at about 5 to 10 percent plus GST. Its FY25 filings show ₹38.8 crore of PayEazy commissions and ₹63.5 crore of market support fees, so ask about both.

Who pays for the EazyDiner Prime discount?

The restaurant funds its Prime deal, which EazyDiner promises members will be at least 25 percent off. EazyDiner covers its own guarantee: if a member saves less than the membership fee, it refunds the difference or extends the membership. Bank card offers through PayEazy are separate and sit on top of your deal.

What is PayEazy?

PayEazy is EazyDiner's in-app bill payment. Guests pay your bill through the app with a card, UPI or wallet and can add bank offers on top of your deal. EazyDiner earns a commission on those bills, which brought in ₹38.8 crore in FY25. Guests don't need a table booking to use it.

Does EazyDiner share guest details with restaurants?

Yes. EazyDiner's terms say it shares customer details with the restaurant where a booking was made, and that the restaurant "may also contact customers for the given reservation or for any promotions afterward". That makes it more useful than an app that keeps the guest relationship to itself.

What to do next

If an EazyDiner executive calls, ask for the commission, any market support fee and your Prime deal terms in writing. Then run the worked example above on your own average bill. If you're already listed, pull last month's EazyDiner bookings by time slot and check how many filled tables that would have been empty.
