Amazon Prime members can order Uber Eats in the US as Grubhub deal ends

A new restaurant option inside Amazon

Amazon has made Uber Eats its restaurant delivery partner for Prime members in the United States, effective on 5 November 2026. Members order on Amazon.com or in the Amazon Shopping app without an Uber account, and orders of $25 or more carry no delivery fee, though service fees still apply, Amazon told GeekWire. Amazon handles login, payment and delivery alerts, while Uber Eats sends the final confirmation. The Independent reported coverage of more than 10,000 cities and towns, while other reports cited nearly 10,000. Amazon described the setup this way:

“Prime members can start ordering immediately, with no new app, Uber account, or credentials required.”

Grubhub's exit

Amazon's arrangement with Grubhub ended on 5 November, an Amazon spokesperson said, and Grubhub confirmed it. Prime members can no longer order from Grubhub through Amazon, though those who already activated Grubhub+ keep it until 31 December 2027. The tie began in 2022, when Amazon offered Prime members a free Grubhub+ subscription, and it became an ongoing benefit in 2024. In December 2024 Amazon elected to cash out its outstanding exercisable warrants, according to Just Eat Takeaway's annual report. Just Eat Takeaway later announced plans to sell Grubhub to Wonder.

Savings and Uber's stake

Amazon estimates Prime members could save more than $175 a year, a sum above the $139 annual Prime fee, based on August 2026 order data. New users get $20 off their first two orders of $25 or more within 14 days. Uber declined to discuss commercial terms, including any referral fee it may pay Amazon, Bloomberg reported. Uber's delivery gross bookings rose 22% to $28.5bn in the third quarter, a figure it reported on 4 November, and delivery is its fastest-growing large business. Uber president Andrew Macdonald framed the move in a statement:

“We're excited to connect our restaurant community with new Prime fans, while giving Prime members a seamless way to enjoy great food from restaurants through Uber Eats.”

Rivals and the wider market

DoorDash agreed to buy Instacart in late October, a deal Bloomberg reported and The Independent valued at $17 billion. On the same day as Amazon's announcement, Lyft launched Lyft Go, a $9.99 membership that bundles DoorDash. The companies already work together on cloud computing, Zoox robotaxis and an Uber Eats integration in Alexa+. UpCounting puts Amazon at 40.5% of online retail in 2026, against 6.4% for Walmart.

Limits of the offer

The Verge argued that the $25 threshold makes the offer less practical for solo diners or casual lunch orders. Service fees, local charges, tips and menu markups still make up most of a takeout bill, so the waived delivery fee removes only one cost. Uber One subscribers keep their own benefits, since the two memberships work independently. The $20 incentive for new users applies only during the first two weeks.
