Grubhub Snooze Insurance is a first-of-its-kind, limited-time perk for Grubhub+ Student diners and it offers the chance to do over a meal that became secondary to studying, power napping, or relaxing with a favorite show. A limited supply of codes is set to drop weekly on a first-come, first-served basis, and Grubhub+ Student members can get a make-up meal to replace one they missed. The first codes are set to drop in anticipation of one of the biggest late-night weekends of the year, Halloweekend.
"Grubhub Snooze Insurance isn't about judgment; it's about understanding that college life runs on its own schedule," explained Christopher Krautler, Director of Grubhub Consumer Communications, "If anyone deserves a second chance at getting that midnight fix, it's students juggling academics, social life, and sleep."
