Amazon's new 1-hour delivery service takes on Instacart, DoorDash
Amazon just launched a one-hour delivery service in major US cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, and Washington, D.C.
The move is aimed at taking on Instacart, DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Walmart.
There's also a three-hour delivery option for over 2,000 communities.
Pricing details for 1-hour and 3-hour delivery
You can pick from over 90,000 items: think snacks, cleaning supplies, meds, electronics, clothes, and more.
For Prime members: one-hour delivery is $9.99; three-hour delivery is $4.99.
Non-Prime? It's $19.99 for an hour or $14.99 for three hours.
New app filters help you find fast-delivery products
Amazon added new app filters so you can quickly spot which products are eligible for fast delivery.
There's also a special storefront at Amazon.com/GetItFast to make shopping even easier.
Amazon previously tested 30-minute deliveries in select cities
This isn't Amazon's first speedy-delivery rodeo. They had Prime Now before and even tested 30-minute drops in some cities previously.
This time around they're using smarter tech (hello predictive AI) to get stuff closer to you before you even hit "order."
