The FTC and Illinois say that around 2019 Grubhub split its delivery fee in two: a restaurant's $4 delivery fee could show up as a $1 delivery fee plus a $3 "service fee" added at checkout. The complaint says service fees brought in $482 million in 2022, against $293 million from delivery fees. Grubhub settled in December 2024, a $140 million judgment with about $25 million paid and the rest suspended, and neither admits nor denies the allegations. The full case file, from the public record: the split, where the fee hid, what it was worth, the engine, free delivery and the settlement.
