Start earning quickly* on your own schedule
Paid weekly, with the option of cashing out in minutes

Additional information:

If you already provide services as a personal shopper or are involved in the grocery or transportation industries (such as a courier, driver, truck driver, professional driver, taxi driver, food delivery driver), you might want to consider shopping with Instacart. Interested individuals from an array of industries and backgrounds are welcome to sign-up. Shopping via the Instacart platform is great for anyone looking for flexible, seasonal, home-based, entry-level, weekend, weekday, after-school, or temporary opportunities. As an Instacart Full-Service Shopper, you can work more flexibly than a part time job.

Instacart is committed to diversity and providing equal opportunities for independent contractors. Instacart considers qualified individuals without regard to gender, sexual orientation, race, veteran, disability status, or other categories protected by applicable law.

Instacart also values providing prospective contractors with a fair chance to pursue opportunities. Instacart evaluates criminal histories in accordance with this value and applicable local, provincial, and federal laws, and tailors any consideration of criminal histories to the requirements of the contract engagement sought.
