Shoppers will see one estimated pay number on the offer card so that they can best evaluate how to spend their time and work. The estimated pay number, which is calculated through Shipt’s effort-based pay model, is the minimum pay you’re guaranteed for completing and delivering the order.

The following FAQs provide more information about the offer card.
Does the offer card include promo pay, tips, and bonuses?
- The estimated pay on the offer card reflects the guaranteed pay shoppers can expect for completing an offer, and will include promo pay (if applicable). If on-time delivery pay is available for the order, you'll see this amount listed below the estimated pay on the offer card.
- In select metros, shoppers may be able to view an estimated tip amount before they claim the order. Estimated tips are either (1) driven by a customer’s pre-tip or (2) when a pre-tip is not available, estimated by Shipt based on various factors, including previous tipping history, order history, total items, and/or shopping trends. When tipping information is available, you’ll see the estimated tip amount listed next to the estimated pay on the offer card.
- Bonuses will not be displayed on the offer card. If an order qualifies for a bonus, you'll be able to see this reflected in the bonus tracker in the app.
Will a shopper ever get paid lower than the offer card single estimate?
- What is shown on the offer card is the minimum a shopper will get paid to complete that offer. If an order is canceled before you have started shopping, you will not be paid for that order. However, if an order is canceled while or after you shop for an order, you will still receive a percentage of the original offer payment.
Can I make more than the offer card estimate?
- Yes, an offer can pay higher than the estimate shown on an offer card. For example, if more items were added to an order after a shopper had claimed an offer, the payout could be higher than what was originally estimated. Shoppers also have the opportunity to earn more through the potential of tips and bonus opportunities.
