Amazon swaps Grubhub for Uber Eats in Prime’s U.S. restaurant delivery perk

Amazon has moved Prime’s U.S. restaurant delivery benefit from Grubhub to Uber Eats, turning a former Grubhub+ perk into a new Uber Eats ordering option inside Amazon’s app and website.

How the new Prime Uber Eats benefit works

Amazon and Uber announced the partnership on November 5, 2026. It gives U.S. Prime members a $0 delivery fee on eligible Uber Eats restaurant orders of US$25 or more when the order starts inside Amazon.com or the Amazon Shopping app. Service fees, taxes, tips and other charges can still apply.

Amazon said Prime members can access Uber Eats through Amazon, browse nearby restaurants, place orders with Amazon payment methods and receive delivery-status updates from Amazon, with Uber Eats following up with final order confirmation.

Amazon said no separate Uber Eats app, Uber account or Uber credentials are required to use the benefit through Amazon. The companies said the launch covers nearly 10,000 U.S. cities and towns and gives members access to hundreds of thousands of restaurants on the Uber Eats network.

The launch offer gives Prime members $20 off each of their first two eligible Uber Eats restaurant orders of $25 or more during the first 14 days of the rollout. Amazon also said Prime Visa cardmembers can earn 5% back on Uber Eats orders through December 5, 2026, subject to eligibility and offer terms.

The Grubhub Prime perk is ending inside Amazon

The Uber Eats deal replaces Amazon’s earlier Grubhub arrangement. Amazon first offered Prime members a free one-year Grubhub+ membership in 2022 and made Grubhub+ an ongoing Prime member offer in May 2024.

That 2024 Grubhub+ offer included $0 delivery fees on eligible restaurant orders over $12, lower service fees, 5% credit back on pickup orders and exclusive Grubhub offers. Customers could also place Grubhub orders directly through Amazon.com and the Amazon Shopping app.

TechCrunch reported, citing spokespeople for both Amazon and Grubhub, that Amazon’s commercial agreement with Grubhub ended on November 5, 2026, and that Prime members can no longer place Grubhub orders through Amazon.com or the Amazon Shopping app. The same report said Prime members who had already activated Grubhub+ can continue using that membership through December 31, 2027. National Restaurant News also reported that Grubhub owner Wonder said the companies mutually agreed to end the arrangement.

This is not the same as Uber One

The new Prime benefit is not a full Uber One membership. Uber’s help page confirms that Uber One benefits do not apply to orders placed through Amazon.

Uber also says orders placed through Amazon may use a separate Uber Eats account linked to the Amazon account. Regular Uber Eats order history and saved payment methods may look different from orders placed directly in the Uber Eats app.

The initial launch is also limited to restaurant delivery. Grocery and retail ordering through Uber Eats are not included in the Amazon Prime benefit at launch, according to Uber’s FAQ.

The launch is U.S.-only

The company materials describe the benefit as available to U.S. Prime members. For Canadian readers, the announcement should not be treated as a current Amazon.ca Prime benefit unless Amazon or Uber announces a separate Canadian rollout.

What to check before ordering

Members still need to check the full order total before paying.

  • Entry point: The order has to begin through Amazon for the Prime delivery-fee waiver to apply.
  • Order size: The eligible restaurant order must reach $25 or more.
  • Fees: The delivery-fee line should show $0 at checkout, but service fees, taxes and tips can still appear.
  • Account benefits: Uber One benefits do not apply to orders placed through Amazon.
  • Category: The initial launch covers restaurant delivery, not Uber Eats grocery or retail orders.
