In 2025, the cost to develop a food delivery app in the USA can range from **$5,000 to over $30,000**, depending on the complexity and features you want to include.
Here’s a quick breakdown:
| **App Type** | **Estimated Cost** |
|------------------------------|------------------------|
| Simple (basic ordering, GPS) | $5,000 – $10,000 |
| Intermediate (user profiles, reviews, payments) | $10,000 – $20,000 |
| Advanced (AI, real-time tracking, multi-platform) | $20,000 – $30,000+ |
**Key factors that influence the cost**:
- **Platform**: iOS, Android, or both
- **Features**: GPS tracking, in-app chat, loyalty programs, voice search
- **Design**: Custom UI/UX vs. templates
- **Backend infrastructure**: Cloud hosting, third-party integrations
- **Development team**: Local vs. offshore developers
If you're just starting out, many businesses opt for a **Minimum Viable Product (MVP)** to keep costs low and test the market.
