Some restaurants don't 'sign up' at all.

The apps just populate them regardless of their consent. As in, a restaurant does not want to be on their app, but is listed against their will anyway. Not only does that happen, but the menu on the app may not be what the place is selling nor the prices correct. And the app does not know if an item is sold-out for the day (as may be common with doughnut or BBQ places) yet charges for sales nonetheless.

And these these issues in favor of the delivery companies, they are loosing 10's of millions of dollars a month.
