SEATTLE – An Amazon news report last week revealed a new feature called “Add to Delivery” which makes it simple to add items to an upcoming delivery with one tap. There will be no need to go through checkout again, and no added shipping fees. “Just find what you need, tap the ‘Add to Delivery’ button, and your item will be added to your upcoming delivery automatically,” write company officials.
Eligible items will show a blue “Add to Delivery” button on their product detail page. The option is available on the Amazon Shopping app or Amazon.com on mobile devices. When users tap the button, the item is instantly added to the upcoming delivery. If customers change their minds right away, there is an “Undo” option to remove the item immediately.
“Add to Delivery makes shopping with Amazon even more convenient— so when you realize there’s something else you need, you can quickly add it to your next order,” write Amazon staff. “With this feature, Amazon is adapting to how people actually shop: one need at a time, as they arise. If we can still add to your delivery that’s arriving later today or tomorrow, you’ll see the Add to Delivery option as you shop, and with one tap you’ll be done.”
