Quarterly gross bookings of Uber Eats worldwide 2022-2024

Uber's delivery segment, which mainly refers to Uber Eats operations, witnessed a significant increase in gross bookings worldwide in the last two years. During the second quarter of 2024, gross bookings on Uber Eats platforms amounted to more than 18.1 billion U.S. dollars globally, an increase from approximately 13.9 billion dollars in the first quarter of 2022.

Global leader

In 2023, Uber Eats sat atop the global food delivery market with more than 12 billion U.S. dollars in worldwide revenues, taking over global titans such as Delivery Hero and Just Eat Takeaway.com. Uber Eats is also gaining significant ground in the race to profitability, being the first food delivery aggregator to turn a profit in 2023. 

DoorDash catching up

Since its acquisition of Wolt in May 2022, DoorDash is slowly but surely catching up with Uber Eats globally. Since the fourth quarter of 2022, quarterly gross bookings on DoorDash marketplaces surpassed those of Uber Eats by a small margin. Juxtaposed next to each other, the quarterly GOVs of the two U.S.-based food delivery operators are a perfect reflection of their cut-throat, head-to-head competition.
