Walmart Launches Delivery Unlimited, a Subscription Service for Grocery Delivery
Amazon announced its own delivery service to support its one-day delivery service, and recently, another tech giant, Target, also launched its one-day delivery service for the online purchases. And now, Walmart also revealed that it is going to start an unlimited grocery delivery service called Delivery Unlimited for its customers.
Grocery deliveries are picking quite a hike, and now, Walmart is also looking forward to serving its customers with unlimited deliveries. The company is already providing its customers with delivery services, costing them between $5 and $10 fee per delivery, for the purchases they make online. The company also has been providing its customers with a monthly fee for a limited number of deliveries through sign-ups.
But now, with a $98 yearly subscription, the customers will get access to the unlimited deliveries on online purchase from the Walmart website. The company is also offering its customers a monthly subscription of $12.95 for the deliveries, such that they do not have to pay the pre-order fees on the deliveries. The users just need to go to the Walmart website, and after, making purchases, they will be asked for the delivery options upon the checkout, from where they can opt for monthly or yearly subscription.
The subscription service from Walmart can be a big money saver for those customers, who regularly purchase grocery from Walmart. Unlike the other grocery sellers, Walmart does not have its own delivery service or has got a contract with a single delivery partner. In fact, it is tied up with various delivery providers, including Point Pickup, Skipcart, AxleHire, Roadie, Postmates, and DoorDash.
Walmart has even introduced a free and one-day delivery service to its customers for orders above $35. Along with that, it has also started an in-house delivery, through which the delivery boys will place the ordered food items directly into the customer’s refrigerator.
The news was first reported by TechCrunch, while the company has not given any statements over the matter, not even over its site’s FAQ section. Though, one of the Walmart Store’s Instagram account had mentioned the same in a post in March this year.
