Forkfluence

Food Influencer Affiliate Platform

Launch partner: Corner Crust Pizza & Brew— North Carolina

The Problem

30%

Uber Eats takes 30% of every order

Restaurants lose nearly a third of revenue on every delivery app sale.

$0

Influencers drive customers but earn nothing

Creators post about food for free — no attribution, no commission, no incentive.

$0

Restaurants have no affordable marketing channel

Traditional ads are expensive; delivery apps are extractive. There's no middle ground.

The Solution

🎥

Influencer

💻

Platform

🍕

Restaurant

😋

Diner

Influencers earn 5-8% commission on every order they drive

Restaurants pay 10-15% (vs 30% on Uber Eats)

Diners get real menu prices — no inflated fees

Everyone wins
