Key Takeaways
Uber partners with Amazon to offer Prime members zero delivery fees on restaurant orders of $25 or more.
Uber Eats connects Prime members across nearly 10,000 U.S. cities and towns to multiple restaurants.
The partnership could boost Uber's customer reach and order volumes, while Prime members gain savings.
Uber Technologies (UBER - Free Report) and Amazon (AMZN - Free Report) have partnered to introduce a new restaurant delivery benefit for U.S. Amazon Prime members. Under the arrangement, eligible members can enjoy zero delivery fees on restaurant orders of $25 or more placed directly through Amazon.com or the Amazon Shopping app, with deliveries fulfilled by Uber Eats. The service requires neither a separate Uber account nor an additional app.
The benefit is available to all Prime subscribers, including those enrolled in the discounted Prime for Young Adults and Prime Access programs. By integrating Uber Eats into its platform, Amazon aims to enhance the convenience and value of Prime membership while expanding access to restaurant delivery services.
The partnership provides Prime members across nearly 10,000 U.S. cities and towns access to hundreds of thousands of restaurants through Uber Eats' extensive delivery network. Coverage spans major metropolitan markets, suburban neighborhoods and rural communities, offering a broad selection of national chains, regional restaurants and local establishments.
Participating restaurants include prominent brands such as Wingstop, Chipotle and Sweetgreen, alongside regional favorites and independent dining establishments. Beyond waived delivery fees, members can access exclusive promotional offers through Amazon, potentially generating annual savings exceeding $175.
To encourage adoption, eligible Prime members can receive $20 off each of their first two Uber Eats orders of at least $25 during the initial 14-day promotional period. Additionally, Prime Visa cardholders can earn 5% back on Uber Eats purchases through Dec. 5, 2026, subject to applicable eligibility requirements.
The ordering process is integrated into Amazon's existing shopping experience. Members can access the service through Amazon's dedicated Uber Eats webpage or shopping application, browse nearby restaurants and complete purchases using their existing Amazon credentials and payment methods. Following order placement, Amazon provides delivery updates through email and push notifications, while Uber Eats issues the final confirmation.
The collaboration is expected to strengthen Amazon's Prime ecosystem by combining restaurant delivery with its established retail, grocery and entertainment offerings. Members can also access free Same-Day Delivery on eligible perishable grocery purchases exceeding $25 through Amazon Grocery.
The expanded restaurant delivery offering complements existing Prime benefits, including fast shipping, Prime Video, Amazon Music, cloud gaming, digital reading services and Alexa+ capabilities. Subscribers also receive access to select ultrafast delivery services, Amazon Pharmacy benefits, healthcare savings and fuel discounts at participating stations.
For Uber, the partnership creates opportunities to connect its restaurant network with Amazon's extensive Prime membership base, potentially broadening customer reach and supporting order volumes. Meanwhile, Amazon can reinforce Prime's appeal by offering additional everyday conveniences and savings through a single membership.
Last year, Uber inked a deal with retailer Best Buy (BBY - Free Report) for on-demand delivery. The deal brought consumer electronics from more than 800 stores to the Uber Eats platform. Uber Eats is the online food ordering and delivery platform of the company. Following the tie-up, Best Buy customers throughout the United States are eligible to order a wide range of electronics, appliances and tech essentials on Uber Eats for delivery to their doorsteps.
