Uber Eats and Best Buy have teamed up to provide customers across the U.S. with the convenience of ordering a wide variety of electronics, including video games and controllers, directly through the Uber Eats app.
This partnership offers a straightforward delivery service: users can browse Best Buy`s selection within the Uber Eats app, choose their desired items, and a courier will deliver them to their door. To mark this exciting launch, Uber is offering a special promotion: customers can receive $20 off Best Buy orders of $60 or more by using the code BESTBUY10. Additionally, Uber One members benefit from complimentary delivery.
With this discount, customers can find deals on popular items. For example, a new PS5 DualSense controller could be purchased for $55, or an Xbox wireless controller for $45. Availability and specific pricing can be checked directly within the app based on the user`s location. However, it`s worth noting that major gaming consoles like the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, or the rumored Nintendo Switch 2 do not appear to be available for purchase through Uber Eats at this time.
Hashim Amin, an executive at Uber, emphasized that modern consumers expect to quickly receive items they view online. While the delivery process isn`t instantaneous, the option for same-day delivery of sought-after products is a significant advantage in today`s fast-paced world.
“Through this collaboration, Uber Eats and Best Buy are making it easier than ever for customers to access the latest technology, whether it’s for essential needs or simply for enjoyment. We are thrilled to integrate Best Buy`s trusted product range into the rapidly expanding on-demand economy,” Amin stated.
