foodpanda spent a decade becoming the default delivery app across a wide stretch of Asia, from Malaysia and Thailand to Bangladesh, Pakistan and Hong Kong. Restaurant delivery came first, and pandamart followed: its own network of small warehouses stocking groceries and household basics, which turned the same riders and the same app into a way to get rice, nappies or a phone charger to a door in half an hour.
Its ownership is being rearranged around it. In March 2026 Grab agreed to buy the foodpanda business in Taiwan from Delivery Hero for 600 million dollars, a deal that takes Grab into its ninth market and its first outside Southeast Asia. Taiwan's competition regulator extended its review into late October, and as of early August the buyer said the transaction remained on course to close by year end, with users, merchants and riders due to migrate to Grab's platform by early 2027.
The rest of the map is a separate question. Malaysia is not part of that deal and continues under Delivery Hero, whose own parent-level future changed in July 2026 when Uber agreed to acquire the group. The direction of travel across Asia has been narrower rather than wider, through market exits and sales, so which company operates foodpanda in a given country is genuinely worth knowing before you get attached to a loyalty balance.
None of that changes how the app behaves day to day. Ordering confirms a phone number by SMS, and the number then carries the working parts of a delivery: a rider calling because a condominium gate needs a name, arrival alerts, substitution questions on a grocery order, and a steady run of restaurant and platform offers. Take the confirmation on an additional number and that traffic keeps its own line. It reaches you inside your 5SIM order, while your addresses, favourites and order history stay in foodpanda.
How to buy a virtual phone number for foodpanda
Pick foodpanda from the service list on 5SIM. The countries currently holding numbers for it load next. Choose one and the operators serving that country and service pairing appear.
Every operator line carries price, available quantity and SMS delivery rate together. Weigh all three rather than sorting on price. Low stock behind a weak recent rate usually means a second attempt, which costs more than the cheaper line saved.
Your number lands in the active order as soon as you buy. Enter it in the foodpanda phone field, request the SMS, and the message arrives in that same order window. Orders stay live for roughly 15 to 20 minutes.
If nothing comes through, cancel the unused active order and the payment returns to your 5SIM balance right away. An unused order left to expire refunds on its own.
