Amazon Prime members in the United States can now order Uber Eats without paying delivery fees, using Amazon’s own app or website. The new Amazon Prime Uber Eats perk went live on Thursday, the same day Amazon’s previous restaurant delivery arrangement with GrubHub came to a close.
What Prime Members Get
Under the new setup, Prime members can place Uber Eats orders directly through Amazon’s shopping app or website and have delivery fees waived. To encourage early use, Amazon is also offering $20 off each of the first two eligible Uber Eats orders of $25 or more during the first 14 days. The company said members will see additional offers available only through Amazon.
Prime Visa cardholders who also hold a Prime membership earn 5% back on Uber Eats orders through Dec. 5.
The benefit extends to all Prime members, including those enrolled through Prime Access and Prime for Young Adults.
GrubHub Plus Winds Down
Since 2022, a Prime subscription had included a GrubHub Plus membership at no extra charge. That membership provided no delivery fees, reduced service fees and 5% back on pickup orders.
An Amazon spokesperson confirmed that the GrubHub partnership ended on Thursday. The company said it regularly reviews its third-party offers to make sure Prime members are getting strong value, and that this review led to what it described as a better restaurant delivery option.
GrubHub, meanwhile, said Prime members who had already activated GrubHub Plus will keep that membership through Dec. 31, 2027. In a joint statement, the two companies said they had decided to end the Prime-exclusive GrubHub Plus offer and that Amazon customers would no longer be able to place GrubHub orders through Amazon.com or the Amazon Shopping app. Both companies said they were proud of the partnership and remain focused on serving customers.
An Open-Ended Arrangement
Amazon did not say how long the Uber Eats arrangement will last. The spokesperson said only that the company continues to evaluate its third-party offers.
The change gives Prime members another reason to see value in their subscription, particularly those who already order through Uber Eats. It also leaves GrubHub Plus members with a defined window before their included membership expires at the end of 2027.
Prime members looking for other food-related benefits still have free same-day delivery on perishable grocery orders over $25 through Amazon Grocery.
