Uber Eats is an online food ordering and delivery platform launched by the company Uber in 2014.[4] The meals are delivered by couriers using various methods, including cars, scooters, bikes, or on foot.[5] It is operational in over 6,000 cities in 45 countries as of 2021.[6]
The process of delivering food is carried out by Uber drivers.[7] In 2020, the company was sued for antitrust price manipulation, from forcing restaurants to charge the same price for delivery as for dine-in if the restaurant wants to be listed on the Uber Eats app, along with charging fees of 13–40% of revenue.
