Job Description

Instacart is a leading technology-driven company revolutionizing the grocery shopping and delivery experience across the United States and Canada. As a prominent full-service grocery delivery platform, Instacart connects customers with personal shoppers who pick and deliver groceries and other products from local stores right to their doorsteps. The company prides itself on providing a flexible earning opportunity for individuals seeking seasonal, part-time, or full-time work with the freedom to set their own schedules. Instacart is committed to diversity, inclusion, and equal opportunity employment practices, striving to create an accessible and supportive environment for all independent contractors, regardless of gender, race, sexual orientation, disability status, veteran status, or other legally protected categories. They also ensure compliance with Fair Chance ordinances in cities like San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia.

The Full-Service Shopper role at Instacart offers an exciting chance for individuals who enjoy mobility, customer service, and a fast-paced work environment. As a Full-Service Shopper, you will use the Shopper app to receive grocery orders, shop for the requested items from local stores in your area, and deliver them directly to customers' homes. This position goes beyond simple delivery; it is about making customers’ day easier by ensuring they get the groceries and products they need promptly and accurately. This role is suitable for individuals looking to earn quickly with a flexible schedule that can accommodate other personal or professional commitments. It is ideal for students, part-time workers, retirees, or anyone seeking additional income with the freedom to choose when and where they work.

Earnings are made on a per-order basis with the opportunity to receive tips in addition to base pay. Weekly payments are made with an option for instant cash out, allowing shoppers to access their earnings promptly. Instacart also offers special earning promotions that may increase potential income opportunities. To qualify, candidates must be at least 18 years old (21 or older to deliver alcohol), have the legal right to work in the United States, and have consistent access to a vehicle as well as a recent smartphone capable of running the Shopper app smoothly.

Working as a Full-Service Shopper demands good organizational skills, the ability to manage time efficiently, attention to detail to fulfill orders correctly, and customer-oriented service mindset. This dynamic role allows individuals to work independently while being part of a growing community of shoppers and support services provided by Instacart. The company values transparency and fairness, ensuring each contractor is given a fair chance and equitable treatment throughout their engagement. This opportunity is perfect for those who desire a blend of flexible work, earning potential, and the satisfaction of helping people get the items they need without the hassle of going to the store themselves.
