Amazon Prime subscribers gain free delivery via Uber Eats
Amazon is introducing a new benefit for Prime subscribers: free delivery on Uber Eats orders. The partnership, announced Thursday, replaces Amazon’s existing relationship with Grubhub, which began in 2022.
Prime members can now place orders through Amazon and avoid delivery fees on orders totaling $25 or more. To incentivize adoption, Amazon and Uber Eats are also providing a $20 discount on each of a member’s first two orders of $25 or more.
Users must place their orders through Amazon to qualify for the perk, and no new Uber Eats account or credentials are needed. “Prime members can start ordering immediately, with no new app, Uber account, or credentials required,” Amazon stated.
The shift comes amid ongoing changes in the food delivery sector. Last week, DoorDash announced plans to acquire Instacart for $17 billion, a deal anticipated to conclude within a year. Walmart has also expanded its delivery services by utilizing a workforce of gig workers.
This latest addition joins a growing list of Prime member benefits, including access to Alexa+, same-day grocery delivery, and fuel discounts.
