Amazon teams up with Just Eat’s Grubhub to offer US Prime members free meal deliveries
Amazon has teamed up with Just Eat Takeaway.com to enable Prime members in the US to get free access to Just Eat’s Grubhub meal delivery service for a year.
In addition, the deal has seen Amazon given an initial option of taking a 2% stake in Grubhub and a further 13% if certain performance conditions are met.
Prime members will be given the chance to sign up for a free one year Grubhub membership which will offer them unlimited zero cost deliveries from hundreds of thousands of restaurants on Grubhub throughout the year.
Adam DeWitt, chief executive of Grubhub, said: “I am incredibly excited to announce this collaboration with Amazon that will help Grubhub continue to deliver on our long-standing mission to connect more diners with local restaurants. Amazon has redefined convenience with Prime and we’re confident this offering will expose many new diners to the value of Grubhub+ while driving more business to our restaurant partners and drivers.”
The commercial agreement will automatically renew each year unless terminated by Amazon or Grubhub.
