Updated and fact-checked: 14 August 2026. Features, prices and availability can vary by country, account and platform.

Quick verdict

The original standalone-app review is obsolete. Uber says Postmates customers and delivery requests switched to Uber’s app in June 2021. The Postmates website can still present local ordering, but the underlying consumer experience is part of Uber Eats.

What it offers in 2026

Users searching for Postmates may be directed into Uber’s ordering system, where they can browse restaurants and stores, choose delivery or pickup, track an order and contact support. Former Postmates couriers also migrated to Uber’s driver platform.

Main features

  • Restaurant, grocery and retail listings through Uber’s platform
  • Delivery and pickup where locally available
  • Upfront checkout total before confirmation
  • Order tracking and in-app support
  • Uber One benefits on eligible orders where offered

Pricing and fees

Menu markups, delivery fees, service fees, small-order charges, taxes and tips can apply. Membership removes only eligible charges under its terms. Compare the final total with direct ordering.

Limitations and risks

Availability varies by address and merchant. Never share account codes with callers and keep refunds inside official support. Restaurant preparation, courier assignment and weather can all affect estimates.

Who is it best for?

Best read as a guide for legacy Postmates users: install or open Uber Eats and judge the current checkout there. Do not search for an unofficial “Postmates Fleet” app.

Our practical recommendation

Check the live checkout, permissions and cancellation terms on your own device. Use the free tier, trial or shortest plan first where possible, and keep transaction records for paid services.
