Amazon on Monday began testing “ultra-fast” deliveries in two US cities, giving some shoppers the option of having groceries or household essentials at their doors within 30 minutes.

An “Amazon Now” feature built into the e-commerce giant’s app let shoppers in parts of Seattle, Washington, and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, select items such as milk, eggs, fresh produce, medicine and consumer electronics for quick delivery, reports BSS.

“Thousands of everyday household essentials and fresh grocery items can now arrive at customers’ doorsteps in minutes,” Amazon said in an online post.

Delivery fees start at $3.99 for Amazon Prime members and $13.99 for shoppers who do not subscribe to the service.
