Uber Eats through Prime is mainly a delivery-fee waiver for restaurant orders of $25 or more, and it can work well for pickup or for stacking with the $20 promo and other offers. The Amazon-linked flow appears in the browser or app tile, but orders must be placed through Amazon.com/UberEats, with Amazon Pay required and no Uber gift cards. The biggest drawbacks are high service fees, marked-up menu prices, and no Uber One-style service-fee discount. It is a narrow benefit that helps most when the order is small or the promo is strong.
Pickup orders can remove pickup service fees while still applying the promo discount for some orders.
Prime members can activate a $0 delivery fee benefit for eligible restaurant orders $25+ on Amazon.com via the UberEats activation flow.
The Prime-linked Uber Eats tile in the app can route directly to an ordering page ready to place an order.
Using pickup can still preserve the $20 off promo while avoiding delivery time costs.
The $0 delivery fee benefit does not reduce Uber service fees in the way Uber One does, limiting savings to delivery fees for participating retailers.
The Prime-linked Uber Eats experience may not support Uber gift cards, which can prevent stacking with other gift-card deals.
The benefit can end immediately if Amazon Prime is canceled or paused, requiring re-activation afterward.
Order tracking can be unreliable after using the Prime-linked offer, including missing order records and a lack of a driver PIN at delivery.

OK, TLDR, that Amazon offer is not good if you already have Uber One. At first I was excited: "Hey Amazon is going to pay for my Uber One membership!" NOPE.
Amazon is constantly watering down their offerings while upping the prices. Gotta take care of the shareholder, I know, but if they keep screwing their customers they'll lose both.
What a great company Amazon was once. It's just sad to see what they've become. It's like Google going from their slogan of "do no evil" to dropping the slogan and becoming Evil Inc.
- Grubhub: $76.34 (waives service fee on orders over $50),
- Doordash $86.87 (waives $1.49 delivery fee),
- Uber Eats App: $88.71 (waives delivery fee and a little bit of service fees on an auto promo),
- Uber Eats via Amazon: also $88.71.
So Grubhub is already ~14%-16% cheaper!Add that to the fact that Gruhub just extended Grubhub+ (not really needed on orders of this size) to all members who were linked to Amazon even though Amazon ditched them, free through Dec 31, 2027, plus issued to promos on your account (check your email):
- Up to 50% off (max $10) on delivery orders over $12 for your next 5 orders
- Up to 50% off (max $20) on grocery/instacart orders over $24 for your next 2 orders
And Grubhub wins by some margin. That said, I have noticed lower participation from restaurants but at the same time, their orders tend to reach me faster than doordash or uber eats unless you pay the extra premium charge on top of the above prices for faster delivery.Stack it with the current 20% of discount from Costco.com (https://www.costco.com/p/-/4201058282) on Grubhub Giftcards (and 2% cash back on a Costco Visa -- sorry, 2% executive rebate does not apply on gift card purchases), and THIS is the real slick deal.
I still intend to use the two $20 off 1 order over $25 deals from Amazon but then I won't be using their sham of a new service to save $0.49 on a delivery fee that Uber Eats in the app already waives.

And for the people who hate delivery because of the markup (trust me, as a 20yr Slickdeal veteran, I'm one of them - I rarely even eat out because it's so expensive), here's the comparison for the same place for pickup and with everything stacked. I didn't doublecheck my math but it should be good.
- $54 - Subtotal before fees/tax for pickup
- $56.16 - for the same if ordered through the restaurant's 1st party app for pickup
- $70.20 - for delivery.
So that's 25% more even before taxes/fees for delivery.Final calculation:
- Pickup $54 for pickup - 1% cash back credit card = $53.46
- Grubhub delivery $76.34 - 21.6% (using pre-purchased Costco gift cards + 2% Costco Visa cash back) = $59.85
So net, 12% higher for delivery than takeout even with all of the discount stacks.Bottom line - if I'm lazy, or if we're out away from the kids and need them taken care of, it's worth it.

1) Uber/UberEats credit is available on an ongoing basis for a 20%-25% discount via Costo in addition to the Delta or Marriott points earned.
2) UberEats almost always has promos, sometimes broadly available and sometimes specific to your account, which can be extremely generous. 20%-40% off (capped) is common, as are BOGO or free item offers, as are waived Service Fees.
3) Cart size and which specific restaurant or grocery store you select can greatly influence the analysis.
In general, unoptimized orders are often slightly cheaper elsewhere, but if you take advantage of the available discounts, UberEats is almost always cheaper.

All three got the opportunity to provide offers and any provided were established for the comparison. I've actually never found Doordash or UberEats cheaper when I've ordered this year.
Fully agree the extra 20-25% can apply to all 3 (as they do now, for instance, with gift cards from Costco) - so that's pretty much a wash.
Stacking Delta/Marriott - definitely smart. Didn't include other stackable credits from various cards, etc. - was really just trying to look at a delivered price (and vs takeout).
