Summary
Amazons Amazon Now service, offering 30-minute deliveries for a fee, is expanding globally, including in the U.S. Prime members pay $3.99 per order, non-members $13.99, with a $1.99 fee for small orders. While customers love the speed, competitors like DoorDash, Instacart, and Uber Eats remain unfazed. Walmart also enters the race with under-an-hour deliveries. Amazon avoids guaranteeing times to prevent past mistakes, focusing on order progress updates and AI-driven stocking. Despite pushback for slower shipping, early signs show positive results.
