2021年4月,市場監管總局依據《反壟斷法》對美團在中國境內網絡餐飲外賣平臺服務市場濫用市場支配地位行爲立案調查。
市場監管總局成立專案組,依法紮實高效推進案件查辦,廣泛開展調查取證,獲取大量證據材料並全面深入分析,查明案件事實;組織專家反覆深入開展研究論證;多次聽取美團陳述意見,保障其合法權利;確保本案事實清楚、證據確鑿、定性準確、處理恰當、手續完備、程序合法。
經查,2018年以來,美團濫用在中國境內網絡餐飲外賣平臺服務市場的支配地位,以實施差別費率、拖延商家上線等方式,促使平臺內商家與其簽訂獨家合作協議,並通過收取獨家合作保證金和數據、算法等技術手段,採取多種懲罰性措施,保障“二選一”行爲實施,排除、限制了相關市場競爭,妨礙了市場資源要素自由流動,削弱平臺創新動力和發展活力,損害平臺內商家和消費者的合法權益,構成《反壟斷法》第十七條第一款第(四)項禁止“沒有正當理由,限定交易相對人只能與其進行交易”的濫用市場支配地位行爲。
根據《反壟斷法》第四十七條、第四十九條規定,綜合考慮美團違法行爲的性質、程度和持續時間等因素,2021年10月8日,市場監管總局依法作出行政處罰決定,責令美團停止違法行爲,全額退還獨家合作保證金12.89億元,並處以其2020年中國境內銷售額1147.48億元3%的罰款,計34.42億元。同時,向美團發出《行政指導書》,要求其圍繞完善平臺傭金收費機制和算法規則、維護平臺內中小餐飲商家合法利益、加強外賣騎手合法權益保護等進行全面整改,並連續三年向市場監管總局提交自查合規報告,確保整改到位,實現規範創新健康持續發展。
