If you love delivering groceries to your doorstep, you’ll love the Instacart benefits you receive on a bunch of Chase credit cards. There’s a plethora of Chase business and personal cards that offer complimentary Instacart+ along with monthly credits on your Instacart orders.
There’s several United credit cards that offer Instacart benefits including complimentary Instacart+ and discounts on orders. The cards are:
All of the Instacart benefits on the United cards are a nice little bonus to the benefits each card offers. What sticks out to me is the fact that you can get complimentary Instacart+ through December 31, 2027 with the United Club℠ Card or United Club℠ Business Card—Instacart+ is normally $99 annually so this can end up being over $180 in value. Instacart+ makes delivering groceries a much more reasonable option as well.
In order to get your Instacart benefits on a Chase United card, you’ll need to use this Instacart/United link and follow the instructions.
After you have enrolled your card and have your Instacart account set up, you will be on your way to getting monthly credits and enjoying the benefits of Instacart+.
Here are some Chase cards that offer complimentary Instacart+ for 3 months along with a $10 monthly Instacart credit:
Pretty much all the Chase cobranded credit cards offer this credit. This is quite an extensive list of cards that offer a $10 monthly Instacart credit along with 3 months of complimentary Instacart+. If you are someone who loves points and miles like myself, there’s a good chance you have some of these cards.
I personally have the Marriott Bonvoy Boundless® Credit Card and IHG Premier Card—with both of these cards I get $20 total of Instacart credits and 6 months total of Instacart+!
In order to get your Instacart benefits, you’ll need to use this other link for the Chase/Instacart partnership and then follow the rest of the prompts.
The Ink Business Cash® Credit Card and Ink Business Unlimited® Credit Card are the two cards that arguably take the crown for Instacart benefits—with each card you get 3 months of Instacart+ and $20 of monthly Instacart credits. I have both business cards and the benefits are delightful.
I absolutely love when it's the beginning of a month because that means I have $40 of credit while also taking advantage of Instacart+. Here’s an order I placed where I got a pound of ground lamb, parmesan cheese and Quaker Rice Cakes delivered to my door for just $4.49 using my Instacart benefits.
This would normally cost around $20-$25 in the store and I could order it for less than $5 all from the comfort of my home!
A similar story with this order as well where I got $20-$25 of food for just $4.98.
The amazing thing? Both the Ink Business Cash® Credit Card and Ink Business Unlimited® Credit Card come with no annual fee.

With Instacart+, you’ll get $0 delivery fees on eligible orders of $10 or more. This is particularly useful because most of the Chase Instacart credits are awarded in $10 batches. Meaning, if your order is close to $10, then you'll typically just be charged the service fee out of pocket.
There’s two other neat benefits connected to Instacart+—Peacock Premium at no additional cost and a free one year subscription to New York Times Cooking.
Peacock Premium costs $109.99 a year which is fantastic considering you are getting this benefit via Instacart+ simply with a credit card. The New York Times Cooking subscription isn’t a huge benefit for me as I like to look up recipes online at various sources. But, if you’re a foodie and enjoy cooking you might enjoy the subscription.
You might’ve noticed that all of the Instacart+ offers on these Chase credit cards are temporary. Well, the neat thing is that you can extend your Instacart+ membership simply by adding another credit card that has a complimentary Instacart+ offer. You could end up extending your complimentary Instacart+ by years depending on the number of cards you have.
In my case, since I have several qualifying Chase cards, I was able to get over 12 months of free Instacart+. And for every month of Instacart+, that means I have more credits to take advantage of every month.
I have always prioritized other benefits on credit cards over these Instacart perks and I regret that. The Instacart benefits on certain Chase cards are worth taking advantage of every single month. And for some folks every time they shop for groceries. The complimentary Instacart+ allows you to mostly remove your delivery fees, making Instacart a competitive option to shopping in-store.
If you have one of the Chase cards with Instacart benefits, will you be making some delivery orders?
