No clue if the app works past signing in and checking available spots! 3+ years on a wait list, not 1 email from them saying something opened up! Yet I've met new shoppers over the years, lots of them! My bf & I signed up the same day, she got in, I was wait listed! I can't believe not 1 spot has become available for me after 3 years, especially because new shoppers are constantly circuiting!

It's pretty decent, and you can make ok money. I've had one problem, and customer service helped and fixed it ASAP. The only problem is that if you need to be reimbursed, the reimbursement order page doesn't work and just goes to a blank page, so you have to get ahold of customer service and try to figure it out. Makes things way more complicated

It's first time when I'm revising feedback. Great app. Great optimization, easy and clear to use, almost 0 glitches, tons of helpful options , fair rating system and care of it. This guys value drivers (first app that understands that they can't exsist without drivers and trying to keep us motivated) And most important! Instacart is not greed like all others.Uber, door dash and other apps (which I'm also using) have to learn from you how to run app. Was on waitlist over a year and it worth it.
