GameStop has joined the Uber Eats marketplace, the companies announced July 15.
The retailer is making its video games, gaming consoles, accessories, collectibles and other products available on the marketplace. It said consumers can shop from its store locations across the U.S. on Uber Eats, where they can schedule deliveries or receive them on demand.

Why GameStop joined the Uber Eats marketplace
GameStop joins retailers in tapping third-party marketplaces centered around last-mile delivery. Instacart, DoorDash and Uber Eats each have been making pushes to add retailers to their respective marketplaces, offering last-mile delivery services.
The day before GameStop joined Uber Eats, Tractor Supply joined the Instacart marketplace, offering one-hour delivery.
Uber Eats said GameStop is the latest retailer to join the marketplace. The Uber Eats marketplace now includes retail stores selling in merchandise categories including:
- Grocery
- Convenience
- Beauty
- Home improvement
- Office supplies
- Pet supplies
- Electronics
“Whether they’re replacing a controller before game night, picking up the latest game release on launch day, or grabbing a last-minute gift, consumers increasingly expect gaming essentials and collectibles to be available on-demand,” said Hashim Amin, head of grocery and retail for Uber in North America, in a statement. “Adding GameStop to Uber Eats strengthens our growing gaming and electronics selection, giving customers access to another trusted retailer they can shop with the speed and convenience they know from Uber.”
GameStop still pursuing acquisition of eBay
On July 7, GameStop announced that its stockholders approved all proposals presented at the Company’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. That included an amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation increasing the number of authorized shares of Class A common stock.
GameStop said the amendment provides it the capacity to issue common stock in connection with strategic transactions, including its proposed acquisition of eBay, Inc.
As of July 7, GameStop directly owns 4,343,725 shares of common stock of eBay.
On the evening of May 3, retail chain GameStop made an unsolicited offer to acquire all of eBay for about $55.5 billion. However, GameStop’s proposal only indicated how it would fund about $30 billion of that.
About a week later, eBay said its board of directors “thoroughly reviewed” the unsolicited acquisition offer from GameStop before ultimately rejecting the proposal.
On June 26, GameStop provided its fiscal 2026 outlook and said its leadership team remained focused on advancing its acquisition of eBay. GameStop said it expects to generate adjusted EBITDA of more than $600 million in its fiscal year 2026. That compares to adjusted EBITDA of $345.4 million in fiscal 2025.
