Anycart always gives free delivery, right now they are offering $15 off the actual groceries to encourage people to try them out.
anycart.com
They will take $15 off your groceries.
The questions to ask:
1) What is the delivery fee?
2) How much is the service marking up their groceries from the supermarket's prices? I am seeing certain services mark up the supermarket prices from 12-18% for delivery and pick-up.
You will find out that the $15 savings is illusionary.

Many are confused about the service and not realizing that they do nothing but provide the technical platform for stores to expand their already available or seeking to implement online shopping. It's the store that does all the actual work from picking the items, packing them for deliver and delivering them to the consumer. Stores like Kroger with their own fully operational and integrated systems really have no need for the tech services. You also have stores like Whole Foods that welcome any and practically all tach platforms that will increase sales. The $ off is just an incentive to get consumers to use their platform as the underlying need is consumers who buy things.
Now based on other similar "no cost to user" tech platforms, I assume their revenue comes from the sale of the user's personal shopping data and cross marketing with partners. Remember, the commission from the store on a purchase probably isn't as valuable as the sale to others of that user's purchasing history, preferences, discount use, buying trends and likely ability to target market products to them.
