Comparing the two food delivery apps to help you pick the right one for Brazil.
| iFood | Rappi | |
|---|---|---|
| Description | Brazil's largest local delivery marketplace, with the broadest catalog but unreliable access for some foreign visitors. | The best first delivery attempt for many visitors because registration and foreign-card payment often work without a CPF. |
| Essential? | No | Yes |
| Pro Tip | Try the official passport and international-number flow if offered, but do not assume it will accept your card. Never use a generated CPF to bypass verification. | Enter the exact accommodation address before relying on it. Catalog and verification vary, so keep direct WhatsApp ordering with the restaurant as your fallback. |
