Foodpanda is getting more generous with their promo codes and it seems like they want to promote their shops and pandamart which are pretty useful when you want to order something quickly.
The minimum spending to qualify for a discount is something that can be easily hit — for instance, you can order two portions for dinner and keep one for lunch the next day.
If you’re not a particularly loyal customer, it’s definitely worth it to do a bit of price comparison for the more popular restaurants that are on two or more delivery platforms.
If you want to save on your meal, Foodpanda also has a free delivery filter. Note that free delivery is usually only available if you hit a minimum order e.g. $12 or $15.
Alternatively, Foodpanda supposedly released their Panda Pro subscription plans. They’re actually very affordable — the plans start at $3.99 for 5 free deliveries per month.

UOB and Citibank are consistent with the promo codes for Deliveroo Singapore. There used to be way more, but Deliveroo has apparently gotten enough traction to cut down on the promo codes and yet still get orders.
Other than Citibank and UOB, HSBC and Stanchart credit cardholders also can get some discount, provided if all the offers haven’t been redeemed yet, as there are only limited redemptions.
Deliveroo has a bit of a reputation as an atas food delivery service, but I think they’re not that bad. If you don’t want to spend too much, you can use the filters to suss out hawker fare, fast food, bubble tea, and the more affordable restaurants.
Also, if you order food delivery often enough, you can consider signing up for Deliveroo Plus at $14.90/month. It gives you unlimited free deliveries, which could come in handy.
Delivery fees are usually between $3 to $5. That means you only need to make 3 to 5 orders so that it’s worthwhile. Do note, however, that you may need to consolidate a few orders to hit the Deliveroo minimum order of $12, or else you’ll be charged the difference as a “small order fee”.
GrabFood promo codes Singapore
Compared to Foodpanda and Deliveroo, GrabFood’s credit card tie-ups are quite disappointing. Besides, most codes are only limited redemptions and by the time you want to use use the code, the offer has been mostly redeemed.
Currently, only Citibank and HSBC cardholders have perks.

Grab has recently been promoting their GrabMart offerings, giving Foodpanda some competition in the same-day delivery of groceries. But Grab’s delivery charges are still some of the highest around, so ordering from pandamart is still more wallet-friendly.
Additionally, GrabFood frequently has in-app promotions and campaigns (usually seasonal, like for Chinese New Year, Valentine’s Day, yada yada). The promotion mechanics are also quite varied. I’ve seen direct discounts, bundled set meals and free delivery promos.
Here are some examples:
Most of these discounts require quite a high minimum spend and/or are bundles for 2 or more people. That makes it a little inconvenient, but if you can fulfil the criteria, the discounts are not bad. Plus, GrabFood’s off-peak delivery fees start from as low as $2+, which is one of the lowest in town.
Conclusion: Which food delivery service is the cheapest?
Lots of restaurants are on all 3 food delivery platforms, so at this point, it’s no longer a matter of choice.
To compare the prices, I did an experiment ordering bubble tea on all 3 platforms. For this, my poison of choice was the Woobbee Milk Tea (medium).
Delivery platform | Bubble tea price | Delivery fee | Total price |
Foodpanda | $3.30 + $1.70 difference to minimum | $3.49 | $8.49 |
Deliveroo | $3.30 + $5 small order fee | $3 | $11.30 |
GrabFood | $3.30 + $6.70 small order fee | $3.80 | $13.80 |
The last time I tried this (in Feb 2020), it was the cheapest on GrabFood, because there was no minimum order, and it happened to be off-peak so I scored a low delivery fee ($2.10).
However, it seems that due to the current circuit breaker situation, it’s ALWAYS peak hour. Also, certain restaurants started implementing a small order fee… And boy did that add up. Long story short — when I replicated this experiment (in Apr 2020), GrabFood became the most expensive option.
For Foodpanda, there was no change in prices (from Feb to Apr). I had to top up $1.70 to reach the $5 minimum order and pay delivery fees of $3.49 (flat rate). The total bill came up to $8.49, which is I thought was ridiculous to pay for a cup of boba tea… but is now the cheapest option.
Deliveroo didn’t change their prices either. Although the delivery fee of $3 was the cheapest, there was a small order fee of $5 that jacked the prices up.
Of course, this example is biased in that I tried to order $3 bubble tea. If you meet the minimum order for them all, you’ll find that the menu prices are all comparable and all you’re really comparing are delivery fees.
Bonus: Which credit card should you charge your order to?
If you frequently order in food, it’s worthwhile to check out which credit cards can give you some rebates or miles for your meal.
You’d think that food deliveries would automatically be included under the “dining” category… but currently, only the OCBC365 card explicitly states so. With it, you can get 6% rebate on all dining expenses, including your GrabFood, Deliveroo and Foodpanda orders.
