Groupon Launches To Go Food Delivery Service

Takeaway food deliveryGroupon has launched a takeaway delivery service, Groupon To Go, in Chicago.

Its no surprise to see Groupon entering this space, given its acquisition of food delivery business OrderUp earlier this month, but it is an increasingly crowded market.

Groupon To Gos USP – in line with the principles that initially made Groupon a success – is an instant 10 per cent cashback offer on every order.

“Most people get delivery and takeout multiple times a month, and with Groupon To Go, we’re giving them an easy way to save money every time they do so,” said Sean Smyth, VP and GM of Groupon To Go. “Delivery and takeout is a natural extension of our local deals marketplace, adding hundreds of the best restaurants to Groupon, including many that havent offered online ordering until now.”

The company has partnered with over 500 restaurants in Chicago, ranging from national chains, such as Subway and Papa Johns, to local independent restaurants.
