About a year after announcing their partnership, Grubhub and Amazon are extending their offer of free Grubhub+ for Prime members.
In July of 2022, the companies collaborated to make the Grubhub+ subscription free for one year for Amazon Prime members. Now, Prime members who signed up for the initial deal can keep enjoying another 12 months of free Grubhub+ uninterrupted, for a total of 24 months.
In addition, as a limited-time offer, Prime members who redeem now through July 5, 2023, can also enjoy 24 months of Grubhub+ at no added cost. Members that redeem after July 6, 2023 or later can still receive one year of Grubhub+ for free.
Grubhub+ normally costs $9.99 a month and offers benefits such as $0 delivery fees from hundreds of thousands of restaurants and exclusive discounts on their orders. According to a statement, Prime members who place at least one order a month are saving an average of $230 dollars per year in delivery fees and promotions with Grubhub+. Amazon Prime membership costs $14.99 a month or $139 a year.
“Whether it’s saving money on your favorite takeout with Grubhub+, exclusive deals, prescription savings, entertainment, or fast, free delivery on tens of millions of items, Prime keeps getting more valuable for our members,” said Jamil Ghani, vice president of Amazon Prime. “Prime members have enjoyed saving money on takeout with Grubhub+, and we are excited to deliver even more savings to those who already redeemed and those yet to redeem by adding another free year of Grubhub+ to Prime.”
Grubhub and Amazon are also continuing to offer interactive experiences for Prime members. Such as the “Tune In & Takeout” series where the companies aim to aid in the “what to watch and what to eat” dilemma often faced by consumers.
Grubhub recently delivered the “Maisel Tov Martini” a pastrami-inspired martini experience for consumers to toast during the final season of “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” show. The delivery company has further promotions planned for upcoming show releases.
“As we approach the first anniversary of our collaboration with Amazon, we’re excited to bring more value to Prime members by offering Grubhub+ for free for an additional year,” said Ariella Kurshan, senior vice president of growth and marketing at Grubhub. “Prime members are loving Grubhub+ and using it to get even more delivered to their door from their favorite restaurants through Grubhub. With unique experiences like ‘Tune In and Takeout’ that complement our core Grubhub+ offer and showcase what Grubhub and Amazon do best, we’re incredibly energized by the possibilities from our continued collaboration.”
The announcement comes ahead of Amazon’s “Prime Day”, an annual sales event that brings sitewide discounts. An official date has not been announced, but the date typically falls in the summer months.
