Deliveroo saw sales jump last year as customers continued to increase the number of orders they placed on the platform despite lockdown easing.
The company said that gross transaction value – its favourite measure – rose 70% around the world, at the top end of what it had told shareholders to expect.
In the UK, growth was only slightly stronger, up 71%, despite the company expanding so it can now deliver to 77% of the UK population, compared to 53% a year earlier.
Customers ordered 3.4 times from the app on average each month, compared to 3.2 times per month during the height of 2020 lockdown in the spring and summer.
