Report: Amazon lowering price of Prime Pantry
Amazon is making another strategic move in the home delivery battle.
The online giant’s Prime Pantry service is lowering its monthly membership model to $5, down from the $6 fee it currently charges per box, according to Bloomberg.
A company spokeswoman said that the price change will happen gradually. The company is using the discounted price to encourage Prime Pantry shoppers to commit to a monthly service charge that gives them free shipping on orders of at least $40.
The Prime Pantry program enables members to order non-perishable grocery items that are delivered in a single box for delivery for a flat fee.
This is the latest price cut from the online giant. Earlier this week, Amazon lowered the cost of its Prime membership for Medicaid recipients to $5.99 per month. The regular annual membership for Prime is $99 per year, or $12.99 a month.
