Amazon has named Uber Eats its official restaurant delivery partner for Prime members in the United States, ending its existing deal with Grubhub. The companies announced the partnership Thursday, according to the source.
Under the new arrangement, Prime members can order food from Uber Eats directly through Amazon.com and the Amazon Shopping app. Prime members will not need an Uber account. They will not pay a delivery fee on orders over $25, the companies said. To launch the program, Amazon and Uber are offering Prime members $20 off a first order of $25 or more during the first two weeks.
The Grubhub commercial agreement that gave Prime members access to Grubhub+ ends Thursday, an Amazon spokesperson said. The spokesperson said Amazon continuously evaluates its third-party offers and identified an opportunity to deliver a better restaurant delivery experience.
The source reports that Amazon and Uber already have agreements covering cloud computing, Zoox robotaxis, and the integration of Uber Eats into Amazon's Alexa+ assistant.
Amazon first partnered with Grubhub in 2022, offering Prime members a free Grubhub+ subscription. The source reports that in 2024 Amazon expanded that deal to make the offer ongoing and reached an agreement with Grubhub's then-owner, Just Eat Takeaway.com, to increase its equity stake in Grubhub by as much as 18%. According to Just Eat Takeaway's annual report, Amazon elected in December 2024 to cash out its outstanding exercisable warrants. The source reports that Just Eat Takeaway later announced plans to sell Grubhub to Wonder.
Grubhub could not be reached before publication, according to the source.
