How to Cancel Shipt in 2026 — Stop Target's $99/Year Delivery Trap
Last updated: February 2026 • Difficulty: Easy
⚠️ The Shipt math doesn't work: $99/year for "free" same-day delivery from Target sounds great until you realize: (1) Shipt marks up items 10-15% over in-store prices, (2) you tip $5-10 per delivery, and (3) the convenience makes you order more often. Most Shipt members spend $500-1,000+ more per year than they would shopping in-store.
The Hidden Costs of Shipt
- Item markup: Shipt/Target delivery prices are 10-15% higher than in-store for many items
- Tips: $5-10 per delivery is standard — that's $260-520/year at weekly orders
- Service fee: Additional percentage-based fee on each order
- Impulse spending: App-based shopping with "free delivery" removes friction, increasing cart sizes
- Substitutions: Shoppers sometimes substitute with pricier items
How to Cancel Shipt
- Go to shipt.com and log in
- Click your account icon → Account Settings → Membership
- Click Cancel Membership
- Or in the Shipt app: Account → Shipt Membership → Cancel
- If you subscribed through Target Circle: cancel via Target app → Account → Shipt Membership
- Membership runs until end of current billing period (annual or monthly)
💡 Check if it came free: Some Target RedCard holders and Target Circle 360 members get Shipt included. If you're paying separately for Shipt AND have Target Circle 360, you're double-paying.
Alternatives
- Target Drive Up (free): Order in the Target app, park in the Drive Up spot, they bring it to your car — no markup, no tip, no membership
- Walmart+ ($98/year): Free delivery with NO item markup — prices are same as in-store. Better deal than Shipt.
- Amazon Fresh: Free delivery over $100 for Prime members (you're probably already paying for Prime)
- Costco same-day (Instacart): Pay per delivery if you don't need it often — no annual commitment
- Curbside pickup everywhere: Most grocery stores offer free curbside — Kroger, Publix, Whole Foods, etc.
The Math
Shipt annual ($99) + 15% markup on $150/week groceries ($1,170/year) + tips ($390/year) = $1,659/year in delivery premiums. Target Drive Up: $0/year — same products, same store, you just drive up and pop the trunk. The only cost is 10 minutes of your time per trip.
