Postmates launches new subscriber perk — no more delivery fees

September 8, 2017

Postmates just made a strategic move in the online delivery war.

Knowing that delivery fees can exceed the cost of a food order, the on-demand app-based delivery provider has killed delivery fees for orders over $20. This decision entitles Postmates Unlimited subscribers to free delivery for orders placed with any of its 250,000-plus merchant partners.
