Splitting the Bill is Easy Thanks to GrubHub and Venmo

Now splitting the bill is as easy as ordering takeout thanks to GrubHub and its new partnership with the money-sending app Venmo.
Through GrubHub, users will be able to send requests to friends asking for the money the owe for their portion of the ordered food. This streamlined experience cuts out the extra steps that's typically involved in splitting delivery bills, like wiring money or heading to an ATM. The new service only works if both parties have both apps installed on their phones.
This offer is additionally available through Seamless or Eat24, as both are owned by GrubHub. This partnership takes the hassle out of ordering food with friends and creates a more streamlined service.
