I wish to tip the Instacart shopper after delivery. What's the tradition?

Tipping Instacart customers is seen as a custom of gratitude for their support. Although not required, tips are strongly recommended as a means of recognizing the hard work of the shopper who carefully selects and delivers your order. It's important to note that the customer who handled your order receives 100% of the tip you leave.

Regardless of the size of the order, tipping is customarily done with at least $5. Although Instacart suggests a 5% tip, it is customary to tip even for small orders because of the time, effort, and costs incurred by the customer. This includes costs that consumers frequently pay for themselves, such as gas, parking, and tolls. You can express your appreciation for the Instacart shopper's convenience and service by leaving a tip.
