A delivery of instacart containing $100+ in groceries is different from the average food delivery since the food delivery personnel will very likely be delivering more orders per hour compared to the instacart workers; the $5 extra per delivery might end up meaning more to the food delivery workers than instacart, making it a pretty impossible demand if they want universal integration. Something like "hourly pay increase of $20" would be better.

I also think instacart workers might be at higher risk of virus exposure because, as I understand it, they need to go into the store and pick out groceries - while food delivery workers only really interact with the food bag at the counter. I'm also not sure how often the different contactless delivery options are chosen, but instacart would include more exposure if you needed to hand every grocery bag to the customer compared to one or two food bags.

They charge large delivery fees now, a $100 order will have about a $10-20 fee added. I’m not sure where that goes though.
