What Is a "Grubhub" Charge on My Bank Statement?

A Grubhub charge is a food delivery order (including food, delivery fee, service fee, and tip) or a Grubhub+ monthly subscription for waived delivery fees.

Plain-English explanation

Grubhub charges include food subtotal, delivery fee, service fee (~9%), applicable taxes, and tip. Grubhub+ ($9.99/month) waives delivery fees on qualifying orders. Amazon Prime members may have activated free Grubhub+ as a benefit — in which case you shouldn't be charged a separate subscription fee.

Most common reasons this appears

• Food delivery order from a Grubhub partner restaurant
• Grubhub+ subscription monthly renewal
• Tip charged separately after delivery completion

How to verify this charge

• Log in to grubhub.com → Orders → view receipt.
• Check Grubhub+ status under Account → Grubhub+ Membership.
• Contact Grubhub support at grubhub.com/help for refunds.

When to be concerned

• Grubhub+ charge when you should have free access through Amazon Prime.
• Order from a restaurant in a city you haven't visited.
• Multiple service fee charges for a single order.
