What is Prime Now?
Check the website to see where Prime Now delivers, and which areas offer local store and restaurant delivery.
How to Use It
For local stores, there might be a minimum delivery requirement; one supermarket in Manhattan has a $20 threshold. If something you order is out of stock, the store will contact you about a replacement. You have to select what the delivery person should to do if they don’t reach you: include replacement or leave it out. Restaurant orders are prepared and delivered right away, the same as if you ordered dinner through Seamless or GrubHub. Conveniently, you can track the driver in real time. Prime Now delivers every day from early morning to late evening; specific hours vary by locality. If you don’t have a saved shipping address, enter your zip code in the box in the middle of the screen. You can sign up to get an email notification when Prime Now comes to your area if it’s not already available. There’s also a View all cities link below the zip code box so you can see if Prime Now is anywhere close to where you live or work. The service ships to over 30 cities and localities, including Manhattan and Brooklyn in New York City, San Francisco, Houston, and Las Vegas, all of which include some portion of the suburbs, such as Long Island, New York. Not all cities covered by Prime Now include local store and restaurant delivery. Metro areas offering all three Prime Now options include San Francisco, Seattle, New York, and Atlanta.
