Consultation under section 2, Schedule 2 to the Competition Ordinance regarding the Commission’s proposal to accept a commitment from Keeta in the Online Food Delivery Platform Case

On 28 April 2026, the Competition Commission (“Commission”) published a proposed commitment from an online food delivery platform, namely Kangaroo Limited (trading as “Keeta”) in relation to certain terms of its agreements with partnering restaurants in Hong Kong. 

The Commission has considered whether Keeta may have contravened the first conduct rule ("FCR") under section 6(1) of the Competition Ordinance (Cap. 619) (“Ordinance”) by including the following contractual provisions in its agreements with partnering restaurants:

1. Exclusive Terms, whereby partnering restaurants are required to work exclusively with Keeta, in return for Keeta charging a lower commission rate to the restaurant;
2. Breach of Exclusivity Provisions, which restrict partnering restaurants from, or penalise them for, switching from working exclusively with Keeta to also partnering with other platforms; and
3. Price Restriction Provisions, which prevent partnering restaurants from charging lower prices, or require them to charge the same prices for menu items:
   1. on their own direct channels (so-called narrow price parity); and
   2. on competing platforms (so-called wide price parity);
   as compared to their prices on Keeta's platform.

In order to address the Commission's concerns, Keeta has offered a commitment under section 60 of the Ordinance to remove the Breach of Exclusivity Provisions and Price Restriction Provisions from its agreements with partnering restaurants. Furthermore, it has offered not to apply the Exclusive Terms against online food delivery platforms with a market share of 10% or less in Hong Kong.

In accordance with the procedure set out in section 2, Schedule 2 of the Ordinance, the Commission invites interested parties to submit representations in writing on the proposed commitment.

In addition to the proposed commitment, the Commission has published an FAQs document to provide further useful information on the relevant provisions mentioned above, the commitment given by Keeta and the consultation.

The documents published are:

• Notice issued under section 2, Schedule 2 of the Ordinance of the proposed commitment; and
• Annexed to the Notice, the proposed commitment from Keeta
