UberRUSH API launched

Uber has announced that it is expanding its UberRUSH delivery service with the launch of a new API. As previously reported, Uber launched UberRUSH in October last year, working with etailers and platform partners to offer express deliveries in Chicago, New York and San Francisco.

Yesterday (28 January), Uber officially launched the new UberRUSH API.

According to Uber: “Currently available to a closed set of partners, this new API will help businesses big and small build on-demand delivery right into their existing infrastructure and apps.”

This “closed set of partners” boasts some prestige names, including: Nordstrom, T-Mobile, Google, SAP and 1800flowers.

Google is an interesting inclusion to the list, given that the company has its own on-demand delivery service: Google Express.
