Uber suits the court DoordashAccusing the largest supplier of delivery of food in the United States that he puts pressure on restaurants to use his services exclusively. In accordance with Wall Street Journal And Financial timesUber filed a lawsuit in California on February 14. Uber said that he had filed a lawsuit when he heard in “restaurants throughout the country”, which were left without a choice but to “leave the DOORDASH) requirements or pay the price”.
Both Doordash and Uber Eats offer their delivery services to restaurants, even for customers who are bought at their own webcake or the application of the institution. At the same time, they also offer advertising in their applications for those who want to promote their business. Doordash has a significantly larger market share than Uber Eats, and previously stated that 90 percent of large restaurants in the United States are available on its platform.
Doordash allegedly threatened to charge higher rates of the commission for processing orders made through the market if the restaurant is also on Uber Eats. In his complaint, Uber said that in one case the company threatened to increase the commission’s rate in a restaurant by 30 percent to order. The lawsuit indicated another case when Doordash allegedly told the restaurant that it would cost them millions of dollars in the form of additional fees if it also unites with Uber. According to Uber, in 2024, a large group of restaurants abandoned the long -term Uber launch plans after threats from Doordash to increase tariffs at the commissions. In addition, Doordash allegedly threatened to overcome restaurants that are also available on Uber in his application.
Now Uber asks the court to make Doordash change his business practice. Meanwhile, Dordash denied all the accusations. “The Uber case has no advantages,” the company said. “Their claims are unfounded and based on their inability to offer merchants, consumers or couriers a quality alternative.”
