Shoppers can choose from more than 200 products on the Just Eat app including greeting cards, balloons, gift bags, candles, stationery, confectionery and key rings.

Just Eat UK Strategic Accounts Director Amy Heather spoke on the Just Eat and cardfactory partnership saying, "Increasingly, rapid delivery is no longer deemed a luxury but an expectation by busy consumers, and this is demonstrated by the fact 1 million UK customers are now regularly getting groceries from Just Eat. As we expand further into the retail space, this exclusive partnership with cardfactory signals our commitment to serving customers whenever, and wherever, they need us. Through our extensive delivery network we’re working to make gifting and celebrating as convenient for consumers as ordering a takeaway.”
