Summary
The New York Post reports that restaurants are also seeing increased commissions billed even for calls that don’t result in an order, such as inquiries about restaurant hours or food allergies.Grubhub later responded that its contracts allow it to create these “microsites” as marketing material, and its partnership with Yelp allows the two companies to utilize such commission-hungry tactics.“It is our understanding that Grubhub has marketing agreements with some restaurants that allow Grubhub to utilize referral numbers on third party partner sites like Yelp,” a spokesperson for Yelp told Vice.
