The collaboration will also let users order and pay via GrabFood, GrabPay, and GrabGifts in stores. The deal also provides Starbucks access to last-mile deliveries through Grab’s delivery network, according to a statement.
The partnership will be rolled out across six markets, including Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, and the Philippines.
Grab and Starbuck also plan to introduce an option to sign up for a Starbucks Rewards membership through the Grab app. They will introduce this new feature in the Philippines in the second half of this year, and plan to expand to additional Southeast Asian markets by 2024.
“We believe the online ordering and in-store dining experience will become more connected, as brands in Southeast Asia look for ways to bridge these channels,” said Saad Ahmed, managing director for commercial at Grab.
