Amazon ends Grubhub Prime deal and adds $0 Uber Eats delivery
Based on Amazon's Nov. 5, 2026 press release, TechCrunch's reporting on the Grubhub change, McDonald's and Uber's Nov. 9 Business Wire release, and Quartz's secondary report of that partnership. As of Nov. 12, 2026.
What happened
Amazon and Uber announced on Nov. 5 that U.S. Prime members can order Uber Eats restaurants inside Amazon.com and the Amazon Shopping app, with a $0 delivery fee on restaurant orders of $25 or more.
The same day, Amazon's commercial agreement that gave Prime members Grubhub+ through Amazon ended, TechCrunch reported, citing Amazon and Grubhub spokespeople.
Why it matters to you
Delivery apps still decide which partner gets the Prime-member traffic that starts on Amazon. If you are listed on Uber Eats, Grubhub, or both, the Prime path into Amazon just changed.
What Prime members get on Amazon
Amazon's release says:
- Orders go through Amazon.com or the Amazon Shopping app, "powered by Uber Eats."
- The $0 delivery fee applies to restaurant orders of $25 or more.
- Members do not need a new app, an Uber account, or new credentials. They log in with Amazon credentials and pay with existing Amazon payment methods.
- The benefit is available to all Prime members, including Prime for Young Adults and Prime Access.
- An introductory offer gives $20 off the first two Uber Eats restaurant orders of $25 or more, eligible for the first 14 days.
- Amazon says Prime Visa cardmembers earn 5% back on Uber Eats orders through Amazon through Dec. 5, 2026.
Amazon also says members can "potentially" save more than $175 a year on the benefit. That figure is Amazon's own estimate, based on August 2026 order data and discounts compared with ordering on Uber Eats without Uber One, and Amazon says savings are not guaranteed (Amazon).
What happened to the Grubhub+ deal
TechCrunch reported that Amazon's commercial agreement giving Prime members Grubhub+ ended Nov. 5. An Amazon spokesperson said the company continuously evaluates its third-party offers. A Grubhub spokesperson confirmed the agreement was ending.
Per TechCrunch, Prime members can no longer place Grubhub orders through Amazon.com or the shopping app. Members who had already activated Grubhub+ can still use that membership through Dec. 31, 2027 (TechCrunch).
What this means for owners
- Check where you are listed. If you take Uber Eats or Grubhub orders, ask each platform how Amazon Prime orders are routed now and whether your listing still appears in the Amazon path.
- Watch the guest path, not just the app. Guests who used to start a Grubhub+ order inside Amazon now start an Uber Eats order there, on Amazon's published terms for the $0 delivery fee.
- Compare your own-order options. Direct ordering still sits outside marketplace apps. See our DoorDash alternative guide, Uber Eats alternative guide, Grubhub alternative guide, and online ordering overview for how commission-free direct ordering is priced.
Details may change; we'll update this piece when Amazon, Uber or Grubhub publish more merchant terms.
Separately, on Nov. 9 McDonald's and Uber announced that Uber Eats is the preferred delivery partner for McDonald's app orders in 14 markets, with most of those orders running through Uber Direct and Deliverect; a loyalty crossover with MyMcDonald's Rewards on Uber Eats is planned, not live yet (Business Wire; Quartz).
