Target’s Same-Day Delivery More Popular Than Amazon’s Expedited Shipping, According to New Retail Membership Tracker

CHICAGO, May 16, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Numerator, a data and tech company serving the market research space launched its Retail Membership Tracker to analyze the emerging omnichannel landscape of retail subscription models. The tracker compares Amazon Prime, Walmart+, and Target’s Shipt Everyday. Overall, while Amazon Prime retains the highest satisfaction rate and Walmart+ has shown the fastest adoption, Target’s Shipt Everyday is breaking out with same-day delivery and capturing more trips, spending, and share from subscribers than Amazon or Walmart.

“Changes in consumer behavior are accelerating,” said Eric Belcher, CEO, Numerator. “Forward-looking retailers are anticipating and tracking those changes. With the only single-source view of consumer behavior across all channels, Numerator helps retailers identify and respond to emerging trends to drive more loyalty and long-term growth.”

Retail Membership Subscription Findings:

  • Nearly two-thirds of US households subscribe to a retail membership. Memberships are mainstream, with over 62% of households subscribing to at least one retail membership.

  • Over half of U.S. households subscribe to Amazon Prime – 6X more than Walmart+. Although Walmart+ has gained rapid adoption (8.1% of households) since its 2020 launch, Amazon has the majority, with 53.6% of U.S. households subscribing to Prime. Shipt Everday has a smaller share (1.3%) as it is available in limited markets.

  • Most consumers subscribe to a one retail membership program. 80% of households subscribe to one program, 13.8% subscribe to two programs, 3.7% subscribe to three, and 2.5% subscribe to four or more.

  • Multi-program subscribers are more likely to be affluent, ethnically diverse, and values-driven. They are more likely to be Black or Hispanic / Latino, from larger households, buy on impulse, and are more aware of the corporate values behind the products they buy.

  • Walmart+ subscribers are likely to also have Prime. Nearly three-quarters (73%) of Walmart+ subscribers also have Amazon Prime, while 53% of Shipt Everyday members also have Prime.

Prime members claim Expedited Shipping as a key benefit (Index of 205).
