Why Choose Our Postmates API

A platform built to deliver "anything" needs a schema built the same way.

Between a catalog that spans food, alcohol, retail electronics, flowers, and pet supplies from a single app, delivery and service fees that shift by category and distance, and Postmates Unlimited pricing layered on top, "anything delivered" data doesn't reduce to a single restaurant-menu shape. Our infrastructure absorbs that complexity so your team just calls an endpoint and gets data back.

01

Zero blocking, zero maintenance

We run rotating residential IPs, headless rendering, and CAPTCHA-solving behind every request. When Postmates changes its layout, we patch our parsers — your integration never breaks.

02

Fee & membership aware

Every price response separates item price, delivery fee, and service fee, and flags Postmates Unlimited eligibility where it applies.

03

Category-agnostic detail

We resolve the same core fields whether the listing is a burrito, a bottle of wine, a phone charger, or a bouquet of flowers.

04

Built for scale from day one

From a 100-store test batch to millions of daily checks across cities, the same endpoint and response shape scale with you.
