Grubhub also reported that it would acquire the seven-year old start-up firm LevelUp for $390 million. This deal will help Grubhub provide more channels to attract and engage diners and increase volume from existing diners.
“By becoming a part of Grubhub, we take our biggest and most exciting step in achieving that mission. Together, we will provide restaurants with everything they need to grow profitably as more and more diners opt for the convenience, transparency and control of ordering online,” said Seth Priestbatsch, LevelUp’s CEO.
In early May, Grubhub announced a partnership with Jack in the Box (JACK) to provide delivery at hundreds of locations in over 20 markets across the US. The company plans to further expand its partnership with Jack in the Box in 2018.
