Hi, that's not what I said. If I go to AirBNB, it has a cost of the rental and a service fee. I assume that the rental cost goes to the owner, and the service fee goes to AirBNB.
And likewise, if there's a delivery fee and a separate service fee for a delivery, I would assume the delivery fee goes to the one who does the delivery and the service fee goes to the middle man. What's the point otherwise? Why not just merge them into one single fee?
If you had to add "delivery: $5.99" and "process order through FoodApp: $1.99" to your cart would it make more sense? They're services your purchasing. Do you expect the money for the pizza goes to the chef?

Why? Hostels.ru negotiates a rate with hotel chains and then charges you as much as they think they can get away with. No reason to think they're related.
