  Grubhub publishes no price for API access. The partner APIs (Menu, Orders, Merchant Data, Merchant
  Schedules, Deliveries, Grubhub Connect, Onboarding, Reporting) are included with a Grubhub
  Marketplace listing and are reached through the partner program - there is no self-serve API
  signup, no metered per-call price and no API plan page. What Grubhub does publish is the
  MERCHANT pricing that the APIs serve: three Marketplace marketing-commission tiers plus a
  delivery fee. Those are recorded below verbatim from the live pricing page, read 2026-09-17.

    Use Grubhub's courier fleet instead of your own. Delivery fees start at 10%. Self Delivery is
    0% (you use your own drivers); Supplemental Delivery charges the same fee from 10% only on the
    orders Grubhub's fleet actually carries. This is the commercial side of the Grubhub Connect
    (DaaS) API in openapi/grubhub-connect-endpoints-openapi.yml.

  Replaces the 2026-05-04 bulk-sweep artifact, which carried Basic ~15% / Plus ~20-25% /
  Premium ~25-30% and a "Premium" tier name. The live page read 2026-09-17 says Basic 5%,
  Plus 15%, All-access 20%, and the tier is called All-access, not Premium. New York City has
  separate published pricing (the page links to it) because of the municipal fee cap; exact rates
  are still set per restaurant contract and vary by market.
