The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is sending more than $23.8 million in payments to over 640,000 consumers impacted by Grubhub\u2019s practices.<\/p>\n

The agency says<\/a> the funds come from a $25 million settlement reached in late 2024 with the company and the Illinois Attorney General.<\/p>\n

Grubhub allegedly deceived drivers about earnings, blocked diner accounts and funds, and listed restaurants without consent.<\/p>\n

Said<\/a> FTC Chair Lina M. Khan at the time,<\/p>\n

\u201cOur investigation found that Grubhub tricked its customers, deceived its drivers, and unfairly damaged the reputation and revenues of restaurants that did not partner with Grubhub\u2014all in order to drive scale and accelerate growth. Today\u2019s action holds Grubhub to account, putting an end to these illegal practices and securing nearly $25 million for the people cheated by Grubhub\u2019s tactics. There is no \u2018gig platform\u2019 exemption to the laws on the books.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The settlement required the company to reform its pay advertising, create account dispute mechanisms, and obtain consent for restaurant listings.<\/p>\n

\u201cConsumers who have questions about their payment should contact the refund administrator, Analytics Consulting LLC, at 1-888-446-4992, or visit the FTC website to view frequently asked questions about the redress process. The Commission never requires people to pay money or provide account information to get a payment.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Payments arrive via check, which must be cashed within 90 days, or PayPal, which must be redeemed within 30 days.<\/p>\n
