Wolt commerce platform announces the global launch of a major app update. The new version marks the next step in Wolt’s evolution, from traditional restaurant delivery to a multi-option platform offering a wide range of products, from groceries to pharmaceutical items, personal care products, gadgets, and more.

Over 20% of orders now come from non-restaurant categories, a steadily growing share that highlights both Wolt’s expansion into local commerce and users’ increasing tendency to rely on the app for their daily shopping needs.

“We’ve updated the Wolt app to better reflect how people live today—naturally moving from ordering from their favorite restaurant to grocery and retail shopping. This update aims to simplify users’ lives by helping them easily find what they need and discover everything their city has to offer, while also supporting local commerce. And all of this happens in one place,” said Julia Niemann, Director of Product Management, Consumer Product.

A key feature is the quick action button, which allows easier access to important app functions without interrupting the browsing experience.

The universal search feature enables instant discovery of desired products and displays all relevant options in one place—from items available in supermarkets and specialty stores to dishes from restaurants.

The update also brings improvements in personalization. The app now uses user preferences and behavior more effectively to surface more relevant recommendations—whether restaurants, stores, or frequently ordered product categories.

Over the past decade, Wolt has evolved from a restaurant delivery startup into a local commerce technology platform that has processed more than 700 million orders across over 30 countries and generated more than €15 billion in sales for local merchants.

The updated app will be available in Romania starting January 16 and will be gradually rolled out to all users via updates in the App Store and Google Play.
