Instacart Partners With Uber Eats for Restaurant Delivery

Instacart customers can now get two-for-one services on their choice of groceries or takeout. The company has partnered with Uber Technologies Inc. to bring Uber Eats restaurant delivery to Instacart customers.

A press release details that in the coming weeks, Instacart customers can use their app to order from restaurants powered by Uber Eats. Their shopping experience will begin in a tab on the Instacart app called “Restaurants.”

This tab will allow customers to choose from a selection of nearby restaurants. They can also browse menus, place orders, and track real-time deliveries.

Along with groceries, restaurant orders will be fulfilled by Uber Eats and its workers on the platform. Instacart+ members will receive added benefits to their membership without extra charges, including free delivery on grocery and restaurant orders exceeding $35.
