Amazon debuts getitfast to spotlight 1- and 3-hour delivery options
TL;DR
Amazon launches a getitfast page and new search filters to surface items eligible for 1-hour and 3-hour delivery, expanding availability to hundreds of cities and over 2,000 locations seven days a week. 1-hour delivery costs $9.99 for Prime members or $19.99 for non-members; 3-hour delivery costs $4.99 for Prime or $14.99 for non-members, while standard same-day remains free for Prime orders over $25 (or $12.99 for non-members). The rollout follows earlier 30-minute tests and a push to speed delivery via robots and new fulfillment centers, with potential impact on local businesses as it grows.
