# Amazon Ends Partnership with Grubhub for Prime Membership Program

Amazon has announced a significant shift in its food delivery strategy, opting to partner with Uber Eats for its Prime membership program in the United States instead of Grubhub. This move comes as the e-commerce giant looks to enhance its restaurant delivery experience for its loyal customers.

Under the terms of this new partnership, Amazon Prime members will be able to place orders directly through Amazon's website and mobile app without needing to create a separate Uber account. Moreover, these members will not have to pay a delivery fee on orders exceeding $25. This move appears to offer a more streamlined experience for Prime subscribers.

The collaboration between Amazon and Uber marks the end of their existing agreement with Grubhub, which provided Prime members access to Grubhub+. An Amazon spokesperson confirmed that this deal came to an end on Thursday, citing the company's ongoing evaluation of its third-party partnerships as the reason for this change. This assessment led to the identification of a more appealing restaurant delivery option.

Amazon and Uber have a history of working together, with their partnership spanning cloud computing services, Zoox robotaxis, and the integration of Uber Eats into Amazon's Alexa+ virtual assistant. The new deal will also offer Prime members an incentive to continue their membership, as they will receive $20 off their first order of $25 or more during a two-week period following the launch.

Amazon's partnership with Grubhub has come to an end after two years of offering Prime members a free subscription to Grubhub+. The deal was first struck in 2022, allowing Prime members to enjoy free delivery from Grubhub without any additional cost.

The relationship between Amazon and Grubhub had evolved over time. In 2024, the partnership was expanded to make the free Grubhub+ membership an ongoing offer for Prime members. This move was part of a larger commercial agreement that also gave Amazon a significant equity stake in Grubhub's parent company, Just Eat Takeaway.com.

Under this performance-based deal, Amazon stood to gain even more control over Grubhub if certain targets were met. The agreement allowed Amazon to receive warrants representing an additional stake in the food delivery company. However, it appears that Amazon has chosen not to pursue further investment in Grubhub.

The exact reasons behind Amazon's decision to end its partnership with Grubhub are unclear, and a spokesperson for the company could not be reached prior to publication.

Amazon's decision to end its partnership with Grubhub has left many wondering what factors contributed to this move. The e-commerce giant is instead opting for Uber Eats as the food delivery partner for Amazon Prime members in certain areas.

Details of the exact reasons behind Amazon's decision are unclear, but it's likely that a combination of factors led to this change. As the partnership between Amazon and Grubhub comes to an end, Prime members will now be able to order from Uber Eats, expanding their food delivery options. This shift is expected to bring more convenience for Amazon customers.

The impact on Grubhub remains to be seen, but it's clear that Amazon's decision has significant implications for the food delivery industry as a whole. The partnership with Uber Eats will likely provide Prime members with greater flexibility and choice in their ordering experience.
