In 2026 food and grocery delivery is no longer a luxury — it is a daily habit. But service fees and delivery costs can eat up 30–40 % of your order. In this article — a current comparison of the main services in Kazakhstan (Yandex.Eda, Glovo and Magnum Delivery) and practical ways to order cheaper.

We checked real prices and promotions as of April 2026. The main conclusion: Magnum Delivery often wins for groceries, Yandex.Eda for ready-made food and speed, while Glovo stands out with daily promotions and promo codes.

• Yandex.Eda / Yandex Lavka — the fastest service with the largest selection of ready meals and groceries. Delivery in 15–30 minutes. Often free delivery above a certain amount.
• Glovo — aggressive promotions and promo codes almost every day. Great for restaurants and small shops.
• Magnum Delivery — the best choice for supermarket groceries. Prices are the same as in the store + small delivery fee. Ideal for big shopping.

Other options: Arbuz.kz, Choco, Wolt — used less often, but sometimes offer better conditions.

• Almaty — Yandex.Eda leads in speed, Magnum in groceries. Glovo often gives promo codes for first orders.
• Astana — Magnum Delivery is the most profitable for groceries, Yandex for restaurant meals.
• Shymkent and regions — Glovo and Yandex have weaker coverage, but Magnum and local services show the best prices.
