Amazon Prime members in the US can take $20 off each of their first two Uber Eats restaurant orders, provided they order through Amazon before 11:59 p.m. PST on November 18.
Each order must total at least $25 before taxes and fees, and after any other qualifying discounts. That caps the savings at $40. Members also get $0 delivery fees on eligible orders once they activate the benefit, which means visiting Amazon's Uber Eats page while signed in and tapping "Allow".
The catch is where you order. You do not need a separate Uber Eats account, but the order has to go through Amazon's website or shopping app, not Uber Eats' own app or site. The benefit covers US Prime members, including Prime for Young Adults and Prime Access, and the restaurants on offer depend on your location.
The math is better than it first looks. On a $25 order, $20 off is 80% of the pre-tax food subtotal, a steep cut by any measure. But the minimum is measured after other discounts, so stacking promotions can drop you below the line and void the offer.
Prime itself costs $14.99 per month or $139 per year. The maximum $40 saving covers two months of the monthly fee but less than a third of the annual one, so the 30-day free trial is the only sensible way in for someone who wants just this deal.
The structure is also worth noting. These are Uber Eats orders, yet checkout happens inside Amazon, which turns its storefront into another front door for restaurant delivery. The terms given tie the $20 discount to November 18, but they do not say how long the free delivery benefit lasts after that date.
