Up to 4 customers can create family carts and share an Instacart+ membership with family accounts. If 1 member on the family account has an Instacart+ membership, all users get the order savings benefits. You can also create family accounts and share carts without an Instacart+ membership.

These benefits include, but aren’t limited to—

  • $0 delivery fees on eligible orders of $35 or more 
  • Reduced service fees on eligible orders 

You can shop together using family carts or shop individually if you prefer. Items in a personal cart don’t add to a family cart.
