Co-op Partners with Uber Eats

Co-op Members can now earn the same Membership rewards when making purchases via the Uber Eats app as they can in store or through Co-op’s own online shop (shop.coop.co.uk). 

Shoppers can now quickly and easily add their Co-op Membership number into the Uber Eats app at the checkout to earn rewards

The move is a first for Uber Eats in the UK, and becomes available from over 1,000 Co-op stores this month, July.

Co-op members can earn rewards for themselves, and also make a difference  to their local community, by just adding their Co-op Membership number into the Uber Eats app at checkout.

As a co-operative, Co-op is owned by its Members who, when buying selected Co-op groceries, earn rewards for themselves (2p in every pound spent on own-brand products) and for communities, with the convenience retailer giving the same amount (2p in every pound) to help support local causes and community projects throughout the UK.

Community causes include a focus on: bringing people together to access food; helping improve people’s mental wellbeing; the creation of opportunities for younger people to be heard and make a difference and, enabling communities to save and restore nature or tackle climate change. Co-op Members can choose or change the cause they support locally, via Co-op’s exclusive Membership App.

Chris Conway, who is the Co-op’s eCommerce Director, said: “We're clearly committed to developing fast, flexible options online to serve our shoppers quickly, easily and conveniently. It's our aim to grow our membership base by one million new members over the next five years and we believe  this is backed by our compelling member-benefits programme. Our members are at the very heart of the Co-op, and by building on our successful partnership with Uber Eats we're now able to create extra avalue for our Members and for local communities.”

Alex Troughton, Head of Commerce at Uber Eats UK, said: “It’s really great to be able to build on our successful partnership with Co-op, and to allow its Members to earn rewards, and support local community causes and organisations when they use Uber Eats. This is all about using our unique technology to deliver exactly what people want, when they want it and enable them to help out community causes that matter to them.”

Co-op’s partnership with Uber Eats has a focus on ease, convenience and choice, and is available from over 1,000 stores following its launch last year.

Co-op's online offer has expanded rapidly via its own online shop  and with partners including Amazon (Prime); Deliveroo; Just Eat; Uber Eats and, autonomous robot delivery of groceries with Starship Technologies.

Groceries are picked fresh in the local store and delivered quickly and conveniently within the community.
