You don’t need a membership to shop with Instacart. However, Instacart+, previously known as Instacart Express, is a membership option for customers who want to save more and get other exclusive benefits.
For a flat annual cost or a low monthly fee, you can enjoy unlimited free deliveries on all orders of $35 or more. You must meet the $35 order minimum for each retailer within an order.
As an Instacart+ member, you can save on average $7 per order. You can also enjoy the following exclusive benefits on every order—
- $0 delivery fees on orders of $35 or more (typically starting at $3.99 for non-Instacart+)
- Reduced service fees*
*The service fee covers a broad range of operating costs including shopper operations, insurance, background checks, and Instacart Customer Experience.
