Based on the analysis of more than three billion messages delivered across on-demand food delivery apps worldwide, a study has found that, while six out of every 10 digital restaurant orders take place on apps, 86% of them are dropped after two weeks.

So finds CleverTap’s Industry Benchmarks for Food Delivery Apps report, which also finds that only 25% of users complete the signup process after the first app launch and only 22% of new users remain active after the first week. 54% of new users will completely uninstall the app within the first month.

“The food delivery marketspace is booming thanks to the convenience it offers in today’s busy lifestyle. At the same time, however, the competition is getting more fierce.
