GrubHub Eliminates Delivery Fees on Orders Over $50
- Policy Implementation: GrubHub will begin a new policy on Thursday that eliminates service and delivery fees for restaurant orders over $50, with a broader rollout planned for February 2, aiming to enhance customer loyalty and increase order sizes.
- Competitive Strategy: By removing delivery fees of up to $8 and service fees of 10% to 15%, GrubHub seeks to attract users from DoorDash and Uber Eats, particularly as the latter charges an additional $2 for orders under $10.
- Checkout Abandonment Issue: This initiative aims to reduce the phenomenon of “checkout abandonment,” where customers drop large orders due to high delivery fees, thereby increasing overall sales and improving user experience by addressing a major pain point in the food delivery industry.
