About this card

Instacart is the grocery layer over North American retail: roughly 2,200 retail banners and close to 100,000 stores — Kroger, Costco, Publix, Aldi, Wegmans, Sprouts, CVS, Loblaws and No Frills in Canada, plus the corner market that only exists in one city — shopped by a person and driven to the door, often within the hour. The recipient picks the store first, so the credit is not tied to one chain's catalogue; it buys whatever that store stocks, including alcohol where the state or province allows it and pharmacy items where the retailer supports them.

What makes this card unusually honest value is what the credit is allowed to touch. Instacart applies gift-card balance to the whole receipt — the groceries, sales tax, the service fee, the delivery fee, priority and heavy-item surcharges, and the shopper's tip. That matters because Instacart's fees are the part people underestimate: a $60 cart can settle at $75 by the time the fee stack and a fair tip are on it, and this balance absorbs all of it rather than leaving the extras on a card.

Two limits to name before you pay. First, this is the ordinary Instacart gift card, not the Instacart+ Membership card — those are separate products, and the membership card is the one that cannot be spent on items, tips, taxes or fees. Second, the balance is not a wallet you can take elsewhere: if an order runs past the credit, Instacart asks for a second payment method to cover the difference, so a nearly-empty balance still needs a card behind it to check out.

Buying it here needs no Instacart account, no card on file and no identity check — a delivery email, the coin you already hold, and the code lands in about eleven minutes. It is the practical way to send groceries rather than money to a household in another state, and the practical way to hold delivery credit without a bank rail behind it. Pick the row that matches the recipient: the instacart.com card is US-only and the instacart.ca card is Canada-only, and neither code loads on the other marketplace.

Asked & answered

Specifics for Instacart cards. For general crypto-payment questions, see the site FAQ.

Does the credit cover delivery fees, service fees and the tip?

Yes — all of it. Instacart applies gift-card balance to the entire receipt: the groceries, sales tax, the service fee, the delivery fee, priority and heavy-order surcharges and the shopper's tip. That is the detail worth knowing, because the fee stack and a fair tip routinely add 20-25% to a cart, and a lot of delivery credit elsewhere stops at the subtotal.

Is this the same as an Instacart+ membership gift card?

No, and the difference matters. Instacart sells two things: this ordinary gift card, which is order credit, and a separate Instacart+ Membership gift card sold in 3-month, 6-month and 12-month terms. The membership card can only start or extend a membership — it cannot pay for items, tips, taxes or fees. This card is the one that buys the groceries.

Does it stack with an Instacart+ membership the recipient already has?

Yes, and they do different jobs. Instacart+ waives the delivery fee on eligible orders over the basket minimum; this balance pays for whatever is still on the receipt — items, taxes, service fees and the tip. Note that since 1 March 2025 Instacart+ no longer reduces service fees, so on a membership order the balance mostly goes on groceries, tax and the tip.

Which stores can the credit actually shop from?

Whichever retailers Instacart serves at the recipient's postcode — the marketplace spans about 2,200 banners and close to 100,000 stores, from Kroger, Costco, Publix, Aldi and CVS down to single-city grocers. The recipient chooses the store before the cart, so this is not one chain's catalogue. Coverage genuinely varies by postcode, so it is worth checking theirs first.

Will a US card work on instacart.ca, or the other way round?

No. Instacart runs the two countries as separate marketplaces with separate accounts and currencies, and states plainly that the Canadian card is not redeemable outside Canada. Buy the row that matches where the recipient shops: instacart.com in USD for the United States, instacart.ca in CAD for Canada.

Does the balance expire, and what if an order costs more than the credit?

It does not expire, and Instacart charges no inactivity or service fee against it — the credit sits on the account until it is spent. If an order runs past the balance, Instacart settles the difference against a second payment method on the account, so the recipient still needs a card or wallet attached even when most of the receipt is covered.

How fast does the code arrive, and can I send it straight to someone else?

The code is emailed once your payment confirms on chain, about eleven minutes on median. Type the recipient's address into the delivery field at checkout and it goes to them directly — the code never appears on the payment page, so it stays between the two of you. That is the usual way this card is sent to family in another state.

Which coins can I pay with, and is there a minimum?

Eight — Bitcoin, Monero, Ethereum, Solana, USDT on TRC-20 or ERC-20, Litecoin and TRON. The floor on gift cards is $50 USD-equivalent, so the smallest US Instacart card here is $50 and the Canadian row starts at C$100. No account, no KYC and no identity document at any point.
