If you are searching for Deliveroo in Singapore in 2026, the short answer is that it no longer operates here. Deliveroo ran its last orders at 3pm on 4 March 2026 and shut the app, ending an 11-year run. The closure was part of parent company DoorDash winding down the Deliveroo and Wolt brands in Singapore, Japan, Qatar and Uzbekistan. That leaves two mass-market apps standing: GrabFood and foodpanda. This guide covers what you needed to do with leftover credits and a Deliveroo Plus subscription, who to chase for a refund, and the actual delivery fees and subscription prices on the two platforms you will move to so you do not overpay.
On 25 February 2026, DoorDash announced it would wind down operations in four markets. Singapore was one of them. The official line from Miki Kuusi, who heads DoorDash International and is chief executive of Deliveroo, was that the decision followed a review of country-specific conditions and a focus on investing where the company saw the clearest path to sustainable scale. In plain terms, Singapore's food-delivery market was too crowded and too expensive to keep fighting for third place.
Deliveroo entered Singapore in 2015 and spent 11 years here. The app stopped taking orders at 3pm on 4 March 2026, after which restaurant menus and rider matching went dark. Deliveroo appointed Kroll to manage the wind-down as liquidator, which is the normal process when a company closes and has to settle outstanding obligations to customers, riders and merchants.
This is the second large platform to leave Singapore's food-delivery scene, and it matters for your wallet because less competition usually means fewer aggressive promo wars. If you are mapping out monthly spending, it helps to slot delivery into a fixed line item using the personal budget calculator rather than treating each order as a one-off.
The most common money question was what happens to a paid Deliveroo Plus subscription and any account credit. Deliveroo's guidance was to use up outstanding credits and gift cards before the 3pm cut-off on 4 March 2026. After the app went offline, redeeming them in the normal way was no longer possible.
On Plus subscriptions, the only formally documented refund path was the standard one already in Deliveroo's terms: a full refund if you cancelled within the first 14 days of a paid period. Beyond that 14-day window, no blanket pro-rata refund for the unused tail of a subscription was officially confirmed at shutdown. If you were left with credit on your account or a subscription you had paid for, the route was to contact Deliveroo Support or the appointed liquidator, Kroll, to raise a claim.
If you paid for Plus or topped up credit on a credit card and could not recover it, a chargeback through your card issuer is worth a try for goods or services not delivered. Keep your receipts and any in-app screenshots, because card disputes hinge on evidence.
Most restaurants that were on Deliveroo already listed on GrabFood, foodpanda or both, so the menus did not disappear with the app. A handful of Deliveroo-exclusive merchants had to pick a new home, and the practical effect was that GrabFood and foodpanda absorbed the demand. If a place you liked vanished from your usual app, search the other one before assuming it has closed.
Riders were the group with the most to lose. Delivery work in Singapore is gig-based, and a platform exit removes a chunk of available jobs overnight. Many shifted to GrabFood and foodpanda fleets. If gig delivery is your income, it is worth reading our breakdown of delivery driver jobs in Singapore to compare what the remaining platforms pay.
From September 2025, platform workers in Singapore also gained new protections under the Platform Workers Act, including CPF contributions and work-injury compensation, which apply across the platforms riders moved to.
With Deliveroo gone, your real decision is GrabFood versus foodpanda. Both charge a per-order delivery fee plus a small service fee, and both sell a monthly subscription that waives delivery above a minimum order. The table below shows typical figures as of June 2026. Treat these as 'from' prices, because delivery fees flex with distance, demand and the specific restaurant, and subscription terms change. Always confirm the live number in the app before you check out.
The headline difference: foodpanda's pandapro tends to win on smaller, everyday orders because its free-delivery threshold is lower, while GrabUnlimited can pull ahead on larger baskets and if you already live inside the Grab ecosystem for rides and GrabPay.
| Feature | GrabFood | foodpanda |
|---|---|---|
| Delivery fee per order (no subscription) | From around S$1.99 | From around S$0.99 |
| Service/platform fee | Around S$0.50 to S$1.50 | Around S$0.50 to S$1.50 |
| Monthly subscription | GrabUnlimited, around S$7.99/month | pandapro, around S$6.99/month |
| Free delivery threshold (subscriber) | Selected restaurants above ~S$12 | Selected restaurants above ~S$10 |
| Extra subscriber perk | Around 5% off on selected orders | Subscriber-only discounts, periodic free items |
| Best for | Widest restaurant and hawker coverage, Grab ecosystem users | Lower thresholds, cheaper subscription, frequent small orders |
Subscriptions only pay off if you order often enough. As a rough rule, a monthly plan covers itself once you place two to three delivery orders a month, because the waived delivery fees exceed the subscription cost. If you order food once a fortnight or less, skip the subscription and lean on promo codes instead.
The cheapest pattern for a heavy user in 2026 is to pick one platform, subscribe, and stack the subscriber discount with whatever first-order or weekend promo is running. Splitting spend across both apps usually means you never hit either subscription's value. Our running list of foodpanda promo codes and vouchers is a good starting point if you lean that way.
Deliveroo's exit only affected the on-demand restaurant marketplace. Subscription meal-prep services that deliver healthy boxed meals on a schedule run on their own logistics and were not touched by the shutdown. If your reason for using Deliveroo was clean, calorie-counted meals rather than late-night cravings, those providers are still operating.
Compare what they cost per meal against ad-hoc restaurant delivery in our guide to the best healthy food delivery in Singapore, which often comes out cheaper for daily eaters than ordering a la carte through GrabFood or foodpanda.
No. Deliveroo stopped taking orders at 3pm on 4 March 2026 and shut its Singapore app. Parent company DoorDash wound the brand down here along with Japan, Qatar and Uzbekistan, so the app and website no longer function for ordering in Singapore.
Credits and gift cards had to be used before the 3pm cut-off on 4 March 2026. For Plus, a full refund was only guaranteed if you cancelled within 14 days of a paid period. For any leftover balance after closure, contact Deliveroo Support or the liquidator Kroll, or ask your card issuer about a chargeback.
Neither wins outright. foodpanda's pandapro is usually cheaper for small, frequent orders because its free-delivery threshold is lower at around S$10. GrabUnlimited can be better value on larger baskets and for households already using Grab for rides. Track a month of orders, then subscribe to the one you actually default to.
Probably not. Most restaurants already listed on GrabFood and foodpanda, so their menus stayed available on the other apps. A few Deliveroo-exclusive merchants moved across after the shutdown. If a place is missing from your usual app, search the other platform before assuming it has closed for good.
