online food delivery services changed the way consumers and food suppliers
interact. With this, online food delivery is a global trend with different countries
worldwide and has at least one central platform for food delivery. Some reports

the Philippines. Some people order a lot of food and immediately cancel their
orders, which causes the drivers of the food delivery services to waste their money
and effort for the customers that they are serving. Moreover, food stores registered
to the online food ordering website take much time to confirm their order. This
problem also exists even in Davao City, and other issues are the availability of
restaurants in these delivery services and the availability of the menu of such food
places. Secondly, the modes of payments. Some customers prefer to pay online
rather than cash, and other food chains and delivery services do not offer this kind

Theoretical Framework
During the global 2020 COVID-19 outbreak, online food delivery benefits
were evident as it facilitated consumer access to prepared meals and allowed food
suppliers to retain operation to prepare meals (Li, Mirosa & Bremer, 2020). The
study used five theories which are Technology Acceptance Model for the variable

The e-commerce industry, over the last decade, has witnessed rapid growth
as clients switch and become more digital. This change in how customers
purchase was driven by a wide range of diverse factors, some of which are market
or country dependent, others occur due to global changes (Li, Mirosa, & Bremer,
2020). Alalwan, cited in Vishal Jain, 2014, found that food delivery platforms
rendered ordering food more appealing by reducing the impression of waiting time.
It also helps decrease the costly call charges incurred when customers call the
store to inquire about their order status minimizing transaction costs. Operators of
food delivery platforms have developed a new technological paradigm for food
delivery services that allows customers to connect through a mobile app to different
local restaurants and food providers. Quick search features allow consumers to
add to their shopping cart the meals they want to order. Depending on their

Perceived Usability is one of the critical factors of having online food delivery
since it uses the Internet. Online food delivery services use a website to
communicate with their clients through the Internet. Website usability contains the

Social tension is the uncertainty applied to any communication with other entities

Customers can order food through online service from their favorite
restaurant, choose their dishes, choose whether to order from the restaurant, or
pay on cash, delivery, debit card, credit card, or other mobile wallets using their
mobile device. Customers are more likely to try all their menu choices because
they are not under pressure to place orders and pay more than they can afford
when ordering over the phone or in person. With no line behind them, the pressure
to call quickly for your guests is gone, and they are more inclined to get that extra

purchasing is riskier than the traditional purchase as some elements were gone,
like the actual interaction with the product purchased. On the other side, a user
who has prior online purchase experience feels less uncertainty. Chang and Chen
(2008) confirmed that website quality and website brands affect consumers’ trust
and perceived risk, and consumer purchase intention. Thamizhvanan and Xavier
(2013) pointed out that prior online purchase experience and online confidence
led to trust. The online purchase experience leads to loyalty toward the online
services, especially when they felt satisfied with the online purchase. Thus, prior

Recommendation
through their mobile applications regarding their orders and purchases. When a
customer asks about his order's whereabouts, the food service provider must
inform him as soon as possible. Automated bots are also highly encouraged for
online food service providers to notify customers about their orders' locations.
Such bots run automated tasks over the Internet, which perform faster than a
person could. This is to ensure convenience and to make the transactions hassle-
free. Also, a certain number of users find the delivery fees costly. Therefore, it is
recommended that such food service providers should provide free delivery
promos when customers reach a certain amount in their orders, or even with no
minimum amount required in their purchases. Lastly, food service providers must
provide more online security measures in their mobile applications concerning their
