Sound familiar?
Selling food on Marketplace works, until it doesn't. Here's the part nobody posts about.
Reposting the same photo every day
You bump the listing just to stay visible, and it still slides under couches and phone cases by lunchtime.
Chasing payment in the DMs
"Is this still available?" times fifty, then the back-and-forth over cash, transfers, and who is picking up when.
No protection when a buyer flakes
You cook the order, they ghost, and you eat the cost. No deposit, no upfront payment, no one to back you up.
Invisible to new customers
A feed built for selling furniture will never help a hungry neighbor find your food when they are ready to order.
How it works, in minutes
Everything a Marketplace listing is missing, without giving up the thing that works: selling straight to your local community.
Your own storefront, always up
A permanent page for your food with your menu, photos, and prices. Set it once instead of reposting every day.
Built for food, not couches
Get found by customers searching for food near them, on a marketplace made only for cooks.
Secure checkout, paid upfront
Customers order and pay online before you cook. No cash handoffs, no chasing, no buyer who disappears.
Daily payouts to your bank
Automatic daily payouts, plus instant cash-out to an eligible debit card. Your money, while it is still fresh.
Ratings and regulars
Turn happy customers into reviews and repeat buyers, a reputation that follows you instead of vanishing in a thread.
Keep 100% of every plate
0% commission on plate and menu orders. You keep what you charge, with a small fee only on services.
Get paid the same day, not next week.
Most platforms make you wait a week or more for your money. On Chefry, payouts run automatically every day, and you can cash out to your debit card in minutes.
Automatic daily payouts
As soon as an order is complete, your earnings are queued for payout automatically, every business day. No weekly hold, no waiting until Friday to see your money.
Instant cash-out to debit
Need it sooner? Cash out an available balance to an eligible debit card in minutes, right from your dashboard, handy when you have to restock before the next cook.
No invoices, no chasing
Customers pay securely at checkout, so the money is already collected before you cook. No DMs, no chasing cash or transfers, no buyer who ghosts after pickup.
Payouts are released once an order is completed. Standard Stripe processing times apply; instant cash-out is available for eligible non-prepaid debit cards.
Built for food, priced for cooks
No subscription, no cut of your plates, and money that actually moves.

Questions before you switch
Is it legal to sell food on Facebook Marketplace?+
In most US states you can sell certain shelf-stable foods, like baked goods, jams, and dry mixes, from your home kitchen under "cottage food" laws, often with just a short food-safety course or free registration. Other foods may need a permit or licensed kitchen. Always check your state's current cottage food rules before you sell, wherever you list. Chefry just gives that same food a real storefront and secure checkout instead of a feed built for furniture.
Do I need a permit to switch?+
You can start today with what cottage food laws already allow, things like cookies, cakes, breads, jams, candy, granola, and dry mixes, often with just a short food-safety course or a free registration and no commercial kitchen. You list those for free and start taking paid orders right away. If you later add foods that need a permit or a licensed kitchen, you can sort that out then. Always check your state's current cottage food rules before you sell.
What does it cost?+
Chefry is $0/month with 0% commission on plate and menu orders, so you keep 100% of what you charge for your food. Listing is free, build your storefront, post your menu, and take orders with no upfront or monthly cost. A small fee applies only on services like catering and bookings, so your costs scale with your income.
Can I bring my Marketplace customers?+
Yes. You get one share link for your storefront that you can drop anywhere you already post, your Marketplace listing, your groups, your stories, your bio. Your regulars order and pay in a couple of taps, and from then on they can find and reorder from you anytime.
