FAQ
Questions, answered.
What is VelaPlate?
VelaPlate is a discovery and comparison service for healthy meal delivery and meal kit companies. You share your preferences and we show you the partner services available in your market.
Does VelaPlate make or deliver meals?
No. Meals and meal kits are produced, sold and delivered by independent companies. You order and pay directly with the provider you choose.
What is the difference between ready-to-eat meals and meal kits?
Ready-to-eat meals arrive fully prepared and only need heating. Meal kits arrive as pre-portioned ingredients with a recipe, so you cook them at home.
How does VelaPlate match me with providers?
We start with the market you select, then consider your preferred meal format, eating styles and what you said matters most. Matching reflects your stated preferences only.
Does VelaPlate provide medical or nutrition advice?
No. VelaPlate does not provide medical or nutrition treatment advice. If you have a medical condition, are pregnant, or have specialized nutrition needs, consult an appropriate professional.
How does VelaPlate make money?
VelaPlate may earn affiliate commissions from partner services when you purchase through eligible links, and clearly labelled sponsored placements where applicable.
Do affiliate links cost me more?
No. Affiliate commissions are paid by the provider and do not add anything to the price you pay.
Where is VelaPlate currently available?
Current partner programs are listed for the United States, Australia, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and South Korea. Actual delivery coverage varies by provider and local delivery area.
Are prices and promotions guaranteed?
No. Pricing, plans, promotions and availability are set by each provider and can change at any time. Always check the provider for current details.
What should I do if I have food allergies?
Preference filters on VelaPlate do not guarantee allergen safety. Always verify ingredient and allergen information directly with the provider before ordering.
