When it comes to availability and store selection, Instacart definitely has the advantage. Still, you may be able to save more money and earn more discounts through referrals with Shipt — if it's available in your area. This is especially true if you plan on regularly ordering your groceries online.
Shipt is one of the best food delivery services to work for because it allows shoppers to accept and shop for more than one order at a time. It can be a more efficient use of your time to earn more money.
Higher Prices: Shipt prices are slightly higher than in-store prices to help cover the costs of picking, packing and processing your groceries. On average, you can expect to pay about $5 more per $35 order than you would in-store.
Instacart does not require a membership but it does offer one for $99/year. Shipt requires a membership for ordering (you can browse for free). The membership is $99/year or $14/month. Plus, they often run specials where you can grab an annual membership for just $49/year.
That's something you need to decide for yourself. But if you think outsourcing groceries is worth it to you, then Shipt is definitely worth checking out, especially if it partners with stores in your area.
Here we have appraised some of the major retailers' websites and offerings, and compared the best online food shopping services going.
Tips are not required but are greatly appreciated. If you choose to tip, you can add a tip when placing your order by choosing a preselected or custom amount. You may also tip in cash or within the app after you receive your delivery. ... Show your shopper some love and appreciation by tipping any amount of your choice!
You'll usually get more per order with Shipt and more per hour with Instacart. It depends on how many orders you make in a given timeframe to understand what is best for you, but you could make full-time work for yourself with both companies.
“We were excited about the opportunities in front of us as we came into 2020, and let's be honest, in March the playbook went out the door,” said Kelly Caruso, CEO of Shipt, which Target agreed to buy in late 2017 for $550 million.
Just like Instacart, Dashers are responsible for taxes and wear and tear on their vehicles. Verdict: DoorDash is the winner. There are more opportunities for drivers to increase their pay with a variety of in-app opportunities and promotions.
Instacart partners with the most popular national and regional retailers such as Albertsons, ALDI, Costco, CVS, Kroger, Loblaw, Publix, Sam's Club, Sprouts, and Wegmans, among others. The Instacart marketplace offers more than 300 retailers and trusted local grocers that customers love.
While the average pay of the two companies are tied, Instacart does make it easier for you to earn on top of your commission and tips, with bonuses that are fairly easy to achieve. However, Shipt does allow you to keep the tips you earn, so that is plus that shouldn't be disregarded.
