SAN FRANCISCO — Postmates, the leader in delivering anything you want on-demand, today introduced Postmates Party, an innovative new product that gives customers a fun way to save money on popular restaurants like Shake Shack.

By joining the Party, customers can share the delivery from popular restaurants and get free delivery.
Launching in Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco, Miami, Chicago, Seattle, Las Vegas, Long Beach, Phoenix, San Diego, Orange County and Philadelphia, each Party has a five-minute time limit in which the customer must place their order to get the deal.
