Amazon ditches GrubHub, taps Uber Eats for Prime

Amazon has ended its partnership with GrubHub and chosen Uber Eats as its official restaurant delivery partner for Prime members in the US. This change allows Prime members to order food from Uber Eats directly through Amazon.com and the Amazon Shopping app without needing an Uber account or paying a delivery fee on orders over $25. Amazon and Uber are offering Prime members $20 off their first order of $25 or more during the first two weeks of the new partnership. The partnership also deepens the relationship between Amazon and Uber, which already have agreements in cloud computing, Zoox robotaxis, and Alexa+ assistant integration. Amazon ended its partnership with GrubHub after two years, citing an opportunity to deliver a better restaurant delivery experience. Amazon had initially partnered with GrubHub in 2022, offering Prime members a free GrubHub+ subscription, and later expanded the agreement and invested in GrubHub's parent company, Just Eat Takeaway.com.
