Youtube video review form Jam1TCG Channel
No, not really Instacart is not a job! You are brought on as a Third-party, Individual, Independent Contractor/freelancer.
Which basically means You are your own boss and you work when you can and or feel like it ๐
You will need to keep up with your own tax paperwork however which, I talk about in the video review above & And a later section of this Blog.
Heck Yeah! The people you are Picking up orders for Usually have disposable income. Which is why they're having you deliver for them. ๐คThink about it...๐คNo offense to other Apps, but you were not picking up fast food, therefore your customer's budget is a lot higher ranged than Someone who wants a $1 Cheeseburger from McDonald's.
Day 1 I received a $30 tip On my first Batch ( That is what they call the load/order of groceries.
No tricks or hidden fees. Whatever is reported on the app is what you earn. Also, people can give cash tips :)
In just 4 days I made about $600!
Below are my earnings for week one. That $108 was just day 1!
(you can also watch my video review above)

Be Sure to use an email you check often, Instacart is really good at communicating with its shoppers!
2. After you have signed up Instacart will make you download the app & you wait a few days till Instacart sends you (in the mail) the green payment master card you see above.
(while you wait it would be a good idea to try the demo on the app & to buy Thermal control insulated bags & download this mileage tracker)
3. After you get the Instacart payment card in the mail you are just about ready to start Instacart ! Inside the App You'll enter the Instacart payment card number & information to Activate it. It should be obvious but you may not use this card for anything but this Instacart app ๐
When you enter the information: This will trigger a background check. If you have a clean record it will clear. Mines only took a few hours.
4. After your Background check is Cleared you are all set to start picking up hours!
5. Pick any day and time that are available for the week (they open up & close all the time) & In the location that you feel like working and you're all good to go!
6. When you are on Full-Service duty hours. You will hear a sound. When you get a batch (As I mentioned batches are just orders).
Batches work by proximity & Availability. So Most often you'll be chosen to go to the stores very close to you.
7. You drive to the store Instacart Tells you to pick up a batch & you get everything that the customer has ordered. You must scan all items that is how Instacart & the Customer knows You found the right things.
You are graded by speed & accuracy.
Tip: Customers like when you are in constant contact with them When you have issues. Always verify with them before you do something you aren't sure about.
8. After you have found everything in the store you will go pay for it with the green Instacart payment master card. Then it will GPS you to The customer's house.
9. Drive to the customer's house. Help or let them unload, Smile, help out when needed and watch your tips go up!๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฐ
10. Do it again whenever you feel like it & Get paid lots of money๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฐ Direct deposits to your bank account (at the moment of writing this) every Wednesday and Friday Morning!!!

You do not need the shirt or lanyard to get started, Nor are you even required to wear them!
But they do look cool :) and help store employees help you better with your Instacart shopping.
Instancart automatically sends you a lanyard after you complete your 1st batch.
Fun fact: Jam1 really does hate driving, but I must say Insacart Is on my top 10 list In life as like one of the easiest and most fun ways to make money on the side. In just one week I was able to pay for my entire trip to Florida!
How can an extra $100 a day help you? Bills, food, trips, books, fun things? etc.
If you're a serial entrepreneur, a broke college student or just want Some extra spending money. I want to 100% no, 1000% Suggest you give Instacart a try!
You become a blessing to someone else who either doesn't want to or cannot do the shopping for themselves. ๐ค๐ค๐คAnd you make Wads of cash doing so!๐ค๐ค๐ค
Jam1 gives Instacart a 9/10!
Why not 10/10? Well the only part I hate Is buying vegetables/Produce /Fruits๐
My other warning to you is...Don't get stuck treating Instacart like a job! It is good money but if you have your own company to run don't invest all your time into this app. Use it as a tool to supplement & enhance your income instead! :)
