It brings fresh solutions to many problems, such as grocery delivery. With the advent of online grocery delivery platforms, consumers are getting more inclined towards buying groceries online. They choose to buy groceries online because of the convenience, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness it offers. This thriving industry is supported by 1.4 billion monthly consumers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, the online grocery delivery industry is expected to reach USD 623.70 billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 26.83% from 2025 to 2034. The online grocery delivery industry seems promising currently. However, Apoorva Mehta, Co-founder of Instacart, harnessed the power of technology and created Instacart 10 years before the culture of online grocery delivery became a norm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Considering the success &amp; popularity of Instacart, launching a platform similar to Instacart can prove to be a lucrative venture. In this blog, we share all about Instacart, a supermarket delivery and pickup service based in Canada and the USA, and how you can launch your own grocery delivery service like Instacart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<style>    ul li a {\n        text-decoration: none; \n        color: #333; \n        font-weight: bold;\n        transition: color 0.3s ease, text-decoration 0.3s ease;}\n    ul li a:hover {color: #EE3E5A; text-decoration: underline;}\n<\/style>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2; padding: 30px;\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3mbt\">Table of Contents<\/h2>\n <ul>\n    <li><a href=\"#the-journey-instacart\">The Journey \u2013 Instacart<\/a><\/li>\n    <li><a href=\"#3-tiered-customer-strategy\">3-Tiered Customer Strategy of Instacart<\/a><\/li>\n    <li><a href=\"#how-does-instacart-work\">How Does Instacart Work?<\/a><\/li>\n    <li><a href=\"#how-does-instacart-make-money\">How Does Instacart Make Money?<\/a><\/li>\n    <li><a href=\"#features-to-incorporate\">Features to Incorporate while Creating a Platform like Instacart<\/a><\/li>\n    <li><a href=\"#development-approaches\">Development Approaches to Make an App like Instacart<\/a><\/li>\n    <li><a href=\"#cost-to-build-a-platform-like-instacart\">Cost to Build a Platform Like Instacart\n<\/a><\/li>   \n    \n    <li><a href=\"#final-words\">Final Words<\/a><\/li>\n    <li><a href=\"#faqs\">FAQs<\/a><\/li>\n  <\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-journey-instacart\"><strong>The Journey \u2013 Instacart<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Instacart was founded in 2012 by three entrepreneurial friends \u2013 Max Mullen, Apoorva Mehta, and Brandon Leonardo. Primarily, Apoorva had developed the concept. During his time as an employee of Amazon, Mehta saw how the delivery of products affected the status of the company. Furthermore, speed, convenience, and accuracy weren\u2019t just important to customers; they were the driving force behind its success. Other aspects included quality and product variety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mehta began creating the platform \u2018Instacart\u2019 as a remedy to a personal aversion to grocery shopping. It is reported that Mehta placed an order on an early version of the Instacart app. He walked to the grocery store and self-delivered the order. Going forward, the operations of Instacart began in San Francisco, and by 2015, the company had around 200 employees. The services of Instacart grew by word of mouth. To fulfill the demand, Apoorva had to train and employ shoppers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the years, Instacart grew to become an online grocery delivery behemoth and plans to expand into other verticals in the future. Recently, Instacart generated $3.38 billion in revenue and reported a net income of $457 million for 2024. With 14.4 million daily active users, Instacart has experienced tremendous growth since its inception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-tiered-customer-strategy\"><strong>3-Tiered Customer Strategy of Instacart<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that we know the history of Instacart, let us look at its customer strategy. Instacart works on a 3-tier customer strategy, which is based on the fusion of Uber and Airbnb operating models. In other words, the 3-tier customer strategy of Instacart involves the following 3 players:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Retail Partners<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Instacart Shoppers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Consumers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Retail Partners<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Grocery retail partners are vendors who have entered into a contract with Instacart to list their stores and products on the platform. This helps them to increase their profit via online sales through the platform. Also, retail partners are listed under their names.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vendors list their products on the platform and enable customers to order grocery products from the comfort of their homes at their convenience.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Instacart Shoppers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Shoppers get paid for shopping. They normally visit the grocery store and earn extra money by shopping for others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Instacart offers two different shopper roles, and each has different requirements and benefits. These are:&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Full-Service Shoppers<\/strong><br>Independent contractors who use the platform to shop and deliver orders to buyers are known as full-service shoppers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>In-Store Shoppers<\/strong><br>In-store shoppers are those who, among other things, prepare orders in a store at a time. They do not make doorstep deliveries.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Instacart shoppers create an account at shoppers.instacart.com, download the shopper app from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store to complete the signup process. Once the user is approved to shop, they can start making money as per their schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Consumers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>These are the end users who use Instacart to purchase groceries.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Consumers buy multiple types of products from across the digital storefront. Much like going in person to the grocery store, consumers spend time browsing digital aisles and adding items to their carts.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Moreover, Instacart\u2019s same-day delivery service brings fresh groceries to the doors of consumers in the U.S. and Canada, and that too within 1 hour.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><div class=\"cta_box\">\n<div class=\"cta_title\">\n<h2>Looking to Launch a Platform Like Instacart?<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cta_button\"><a class=\"button customBtn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yo-kart.com\/contact-us.html?q=growcer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Contact Us<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-does-instacart-work\"><strong>How Does Instacart Work?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"799\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yo-kart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/How-Does-Instacart-Work_-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11799\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.yo-kart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/How-Does-Instacart-Work_-1.png 799w, https:\/\/www.yo-kart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/How-Does-Instacart-Work_-1-300x188.png 300w, https:\/\/www.yo-kart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/How-Does-Instacart-Work_-1-768x481.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 799px) 100vw, 799px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>For Consumers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>End-users\/consumers sign up.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Consumers browse and add items to their shopping carts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They add the address and other information; make a payment, and select the date and time of delivery.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The shoppers are notified, and once the items are purchased, the shoppers deliver them to the consumers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Consumers can also opt for self-pickups directly from the store by selecting a pickup time at their convenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>For Shoppers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, we discuss the working of both full-service and in-store shoppers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Both full-time and in-store shoppers register and create a profile on the platform.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Both shoppers receive orders via notifications on their smartphones.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The shoppers pick the order items manually and pack them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Full-time shoppers deliver the orders to the consumers, while in-store shoppers do not deliver.

However, it has other revenue streams. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Mark Up Prices<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some stores sell their products at the same price as their in-store prices. But a few stores have a mark up of 15% or more on their products. The revenue earned from this mark up goes to Instacart and helps pay its shoppers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Delivery Fee<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Instacart delivers orders with a value of at least $10. However, for same-day delivery, it charges $3.99 on orders above $35. It is important to note that Instacart+ members get free delivery on orders above $35 or more, per retailer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Membership Fee<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Formerly known as Instacart Express, Instacart+ is a membership program that saves time and money. The program offers unlimited free delivery on grocery orders of or above $35. The service fee charged is also lower. There is a 14-day free trial and after that $99\/yr is charged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Service Fee<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To cover a range of operating costs, Instacart charges a service fee. This includes insurance, background checks, shopper operations, and customer support. Here, it is important to note that pickup orders have no service fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Pickup Fee<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like a delivery fee, orders from certain retailers have a \u201cpickup fee.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Partner Payments<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Instacart earns money by charging fees from its partners. A few businesses like Kroger, Costco, and many others have partnered with Instacart to integrate their services. The revenue is generated through commissions per order (if stated in the contract) for every partner platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"features-to-incorporate\"><strong>Features to Incorporate while Creating a Platform like Instacart<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As demand for online grocery continues to grow, the features that grocery retailers can implement \u00e0 la carte, are the stepping stones to the success of the online grocery delivery business.

Depending upon the development approach, feature requirements, and other factors, the cost of development can vary.

Hence, when estimating the cost of development, consider the complexity of the platform (in terms of features) and the location of the development team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, readymade software solutions like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yogrowcer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Growcer<\/a> start at $499, which is more efficient and cost-effective than custom development.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"final-words\"><strong>Final Words<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The transition of consumer behavior to online grocery platforms like Instacart has opened a plethora of opportunities for entrepreneurs to venture into.
