Frequently asked questions
It's simple. Using the Instacart app or website, shop for beer, wine, liquor and extras like soda, mixers, non-alcoholic drinks, or food from a store near you in California. Then, Instacart will connect you with a personal shopper in your area to shop and deliver your order. You can track your order is progress and communicate with your shopper every step of the way using the Instacart app or website. However, additional alcohol cannot be added to your cart once you have placed your order. Contactless delivery is available with our “Leave at my door” option. The Instacart shopper will scan the back of your ID card when delivering alcohol items to verify your age. If they cannot scan your ID, manual entry is acceptable for some orders, though this method cannot be used in California or for any Walmart or Costco orders nationwide. Instacart shoppers will not deliver alcohol items to those who are visibly intoxicated.
