Ritual says it believes the move will strengthen the company, position it for success and better help it service restaurants as they grow their businesses.
The cut comes after Ritual said in May that it would begin charging consumers a fee for every order they place on its platform.
The charges amount to between 15 and 99 cents for orders under $30 and $1.99 for orders above $30.
