Delivery platform Grubhub to give $30 million of funding to restaurants

This post was originally published on this site

The restaurants – only small, independent outlets or regional chain franchises – will get a benefit of up to $250 as part of Grubhub’s dinner promotion to help generate sales thru April.

The company had already deferred commission fees, which restaurants pay for advertising on the platform, as delivery firms try to help restaurants offset steep losses from dining rooms they have been forced to close to comply with government mandates.

(This story corrects headline, first and second paragraph to show the funding is a rolling promotional benefit, not a credit at the end of the month.)
