The Uber Eats app now has a loyalty program where users can accumulate rewards through successive orders to restaurants. Users can still receive Uber rewards from the Uber Eats app, however now they also have the ability to get points from the specific restaurant they order from. Users will also be able to see if which restaurants distribute points while they order. The app will email users when they receive rewards, and following that they can redeem rewards points for a total of 90 days.
The company released a statement regarding the new rewards structure, "Restaurants who choose to participate will be able to create their own loyalty program from the ground up, while Uber Eats customers can easily monitor their progress towards their next reward"
