Shipt vs Instacart - what's the difference?
Shipt and Instacart are both grocery delivery services with membership options. Shipt is owned by Target and focuses on same-day delivery from Target, Meijer, CVS, and other retailers. Instacart works with a broader range of grocery chains. If you only order from Target, Shipt membership may have made sense - but Target's own free delivery on orders over a threshold may make the membership unnecessary.
Can I pause my Shipt membership?
Shipt does not offer a formal pause option. Your options are to cancel or to let the membership auto-renew. If you only need delivery for a few months, consider canceling and resubscribing when needed.
Shipt refund policy
Shipt does not offer prorated refunds for unused membership time. If you were charged after a confirmed cancellation, contact support at shipt.com or call 1-205-502-2500.
