You can approve the replacement shown by clicking “Approve.” Or, you can choose a different replacement by clicking “Other Options” and searching for a different item.

NOTE – the replacement item will only be shopped if the item you initially selected is not available at your store.

What happens if I placed my order and then the item becomes unavailable?

If an item you ordered becomes unavailable at your store after you’ve placed your Grocery Pickup or Delivery order, a comparable substitution may be made by your shopper if substitutions are allowed. Shoppers select a new item that is comparable to the original item based on brand, flavor, size, dietary considerations, and price.

How can I cancel an order?

To cancel an order, simply log back into wegmans.com or the Wegmans App and find your pending order under “My Orders & Receipts.” You can cancel an order online up to the time Instacart’s Personal Shopper starts shopping the order in the store.

Typically, this is 1-2 hours before the requested delivery or pickup time. Cancelation fees do not apply if the order is cancelled prior to the shopper picking the order.

How can I share my list/cart with someone else?

To share your list or cart you need to be on the Wegmans App and have your shopping mode set to In Store. Tap on your shopping list/cart in the upper right-hand corner of the screen and tap “Options” at the top of your list. This will allow you to text or email your list to another user. Unfortunately, list sharing is not available at this time for shopping from a desktop or laptop computer.

Can I use paper coupons when placing an online order for delivery or grocery pickup?

No. Paper coupons can’t be used when placing an online order for delivery or grocery pickup.

Can I use digital coupons when placing an online order for delivery or grocery pickup?

Yes. As long as you are signed into your Wegmans Shoppers Club account when you are placing your order, you can use your digital coupons.

How do redeemed digital coupons show up on my online receipt for delivery or grocery pickup orders?

You can view coupons that have been previously redeemed by selecting “My Orders and Receipts”. This is found on Wegmans.com by clicking on your name in the upper right corner of the screen, and then selecting “My Orders and Receipts” from the drop-down list.

What happens if prices change between when I place my order and when it is delivered/picked up?

The price you pay for a product ordered through Instacart is the price the product was at time you placed your order. Price changes at the time of delivery do not affect your payment for the original order.

How do I get a copy of my receipt?

Receipts can be viewed in your Wegmans Online Account. On the Wegmans App, tap the left-hand menu bar icon  and select “My Orders and Receipts.” On wegmans.com, hover over your name in the upper right corner of the screen and click on “My Orders and Receipts”

Why are the prices on “My Orders and Receipts” on wegmans.com and the Wegmans App different than the prices on my Instacart receipt?

When you order a weighted item, we use an estimated product weight to give you an approximate total. This approximate total is what will appear on your Instacart receipt.  When a shopper picks your order, they update the actual weight of your item so that you are only charged for the product that you receive. This updated total will be what is shown under “My Orders and Receipts” on wegmans.com and the Wegmans App.

Why is my estimated total when I place my order different from my completed order receipt?

When you place an order, the anticipated charge for your items, including estimated taxes and fees, is displayed and included on your order confirmation email. Any approved changes to your order during shopping can update the final total in your order receipt.

These changes can include:

Added items: After you place an order, you can add items to it, either by modifying the order before it is shopped or by communicating with the Personal Shopper while it’s being shopped.

Substituted items: You can choose to have items substituted or not if something is unavailable. If an item is replaced, your receipt will be updated to reflect the replacement item price. If the replacement is more expensive than the item you ordered, you will be charged more. If the replacement is less expensive, you will be charged less.

Unavailable/refunded items: If an item is unavailable, your shopper will mark the item as refunded, and we’ll remove it from your item total. This will reduce the final amount of your order.

Weight adjustments: Personal Shoppers will try to get the exact weight of the items you requested, but it is likely the weight could be more or less than what you requested.  At the store, your shopper will input the correct item’s weights before checking out, which will update your item total. You will be charged for the weight you receive.

Some item weights, like produce, are measured by shoppers using in-store scales. The weight of items from the deli, meat and seafood counters are determined by the label applied in-store to those items.

Why is the amount of my order different from the amount pending on my form of payment?

When a grocery pickup or delivery order is placed, a temporary hold is placed on your payment method for slightly more than the order total to cover any changes in the order total that might occur when your order is shopped. It is common for the order total to change due to weighted items, additions, and/or substitutions. Once your order is complete, your card will be charged for the final order total reflected on your order receipt, which can be more or less than the temporary hold amount. Please refer to the payment details on your order receipt for the final order total and the amount previously authorized when you placed the order.

If your order is canceled prior to being shopped, your bank will remove the temporary hold from your account. Please refer to your order confirmation email for the estimated amount of your order and the temporary hold amount authorized.

Why did the taxes change on my final order?

When first placing your order, an estimate of the sales tax and any other applicable fees and taxes, such as bottle deposits and bag fees is applied to your total. These are the same types of fees that you would pay in the physical store. Estimated taxes and fees applicable to your order are visible on the right-hand side of the checkout page. Final taxes and fees will be included in your receipt after your order is picked and delivered. Any changes to your order when it’s shopped could result in adjustments to the taxes and/or fees.

How do I return product I am not satisfied with?

To ensure the quality and safety of items, we do not accept returns for online orders. You may, however, receive a credit on you next order if you are not satisfied with your order for any reason.

Can I call Wegmans for help on my order that I placed on the Instacart website or App?

The best way to receive help for orders placed through the Instacart website or App is by contacting the Instacart Support team at (888)-246-7822.

Why doesn’t my delivery/grocery pickup receipt total match my list total?

There are many reasons why your receipt total might differ from your list total. Some reasons include:

  • Added items: after an order is placed, items can be added to the order.
  • Replacement items: if an item is replaced, the receipt will be updated with the price of the replacement item. This may differ from the price of the item that was originally on your list.
  • Weighted items: while the shoppers will try to get the exact weight of the items that you ordered, the actual weight will likely be slightly more or less. At checkout, the shopper will be sure to update the correct item weights.
  • Special Requests: if a certain product is specified in the notes section of the list, the shopper will do their best to accommodate that request. Since we don’t know the cost of special request items until the shopper finds them in the store, the item cost is not included on the customer’s list.

What do I do if I have been waiting for my grocery order and no one has brought it out to me?

Contact the customer service desk at the store you are picking up your order from. The phone number is listed on the signs in the pickup area.

Why do some items not transfer on my list when I change my order from in-store to grocery pickup or delivery?

Certain items that are available for in-store purchase are not available for grocery pickup or delivery. Some of these items include:

  • Alcohol (exceptions apply, see below)
  • OTC drugs for which ID is required
  • Catering
  • Market Café subs, pizza, hot & cold food bars
  • Special order products (e.g. custom cakes)

Alcohol is available in NJ for Grocery Pickup only and in MA, VA, and NC for Grocery Pickup and Delivery. Beer is available in NY for Delivery or Grocery Pickup.

Why are prices different when shopping In-Store vs Delivery/Grocery Pickup on the Wegmans App and wegmans.com?

The increase in price for Delivery and Grocery Pickup orders covers the cost of shopping your order. Enter your Wegmans Shoppers Club number to receive any discounts for the lowest prices available.

How do I review the status of my order?

To view the status of your order, go to “My Orders and Receipts” and click on your online order. When the order is being shopped, it will say “In Progress”. When your order is ready for Pick up it will say “Ready”. You can also view the status of your order by selecting “My Orders and Receipts” on the homepage of the Wegmans app.

Can I save a form of payment for later use?

Yes. When checking out you will have the option to “Save to Profile”. When you select this, it means that next time you go to check out, you don’t have to reenter your credit card information.

I share an account with someone else. Can we share the same list between two accounts and have it update as we make changes?

Yes, you can share a list but there are a few things that you need to be aware of:

  1. Cart items don’t refresh in real time if items are being added on different devices.
  2. If you are on the In-Store list and someone else adds an item, you need to exit the list and reopen it to pick up the added item.
  3. Same with the count ‘bubble’: the list icon has an item count bubble anytime you are not in the list itself and if someone else adds or removes an item, you need to tap into the list to see the update OR change location for the bubble to reflect the new item count.
  4. On desktop, refreshing the browser will also update the list and count bubble.
  5. Additionally, both lists must be in the same mode (for example, both must be In-Store or Online). One store being in Grocery Pickup mode while another is in In-Store mode will cause the contents of the list/cart to be different.

I received a credit on my order, where can I view that credit?

Right now, credits can only be viewed on our desktop website. To view them, click on your name in the upper right-hand corner of the screen and select “Profile” from the drop-down menu. Then, on the left side of the screen, select “Available Credits” to see any credits you have. As a reminder, when using your credits, your order subtotal must be greater than $10 after your credit is applied in order to complete your transaction.

EBT SNAP as payment

Can I use my EBT SNAP card to order groceries online?

Yes! Customers can now use EBT SNAP cards when placing an order online. Please note that only EBT-eligible items can be paid for using SNAP funds. A primary payment method is required for non-EBT-eligible items and fees.

 

How do I know which items are SNAP eligible?

There is an EBT filter online and an EBT tag on items to quickly identify eligible products.

 

Is there an order minimum when I am paying with a EBT SNAP card?

No

 

Can I designate the amount to pay with a EBT SNAP card?

Yes, you can determine the amount charged to your EBT SNAP card up to the total amount of eligible products.

 

How can I add my EBT SNAP card online?

Under your account profile or during checkout.

 

Do I need to also use a credit card when paying with my EBT SNAP card?

Yes, you will need to enter a credit card in addition to EBT SNAP for ordering online to cover items and fees that are not EBT-eligible.

 

What do I do if I have a problem after receiving my grocery order? Will you refund my SNAP funds?

If EBT-eligible items require a refund, the refund will go back to the EBT SNAP card.

 

How will my order be charged if I add an item after I placed the order?

If the order has not begun to be shopped, you can add items to your order and adjust the SNAP EBT amount for your order. Select “Charge more to EBT” after adding EBT-eligible items to adjust the amount of funds used for the order. If it is not adjusted, all charges will be covered by the credit card on file. If the order is being shopped, any items added or changed through substitutions or communication with the shopper will be charged to the credit card on file.

 

How are weighted items that go over the pre-authorized amount charged?

For weighted items that go over the original estimated amount, the first 10% of the price difference will be charged to EBT. The remaining difference will be charged to your credit card.

 

How do I know that my EBT card has been entered correctly and will be charged?

Before clicking “Place Order,” you can check the payment breakdown in the paragraph below “Place Order.” If the EBT card has been entered correctly, it will say how much will be charged to the EBT card and how much your credit card will be authorized for. If you do not see both payments listed, double-check that everything is entered correctly under the payment field before placing your order.

 

My credit card was charged but not my EBT card. Can you charge my EBT card instead?

Unfortunately, we are not able to change the card that an order has been charged to after the order has been placed. You will need to cancel your order and place a new order with the correct payment methods selected.

Back To FAQ Topics

Why are the prices on “My Orders and Receipts” on wegmans.com and the Wegmans App different than the prices on my Instacart receipt?

When you order a weighted item, we use an estimated product weight to give you an approximate total. This approximate total is what will appear on your Instacart receipt.  When a shopper picks your order, they update the actual weight of your item so that you are only charged for the product that you receive. This updated total will be what is shown under “My Orders and Receipts” on wegmans.com and the Wegmans App.

Back To FAQ Topics

Why is my estimated total when I place my order different from my completed order receipt?

When you place an order, the anticipated charge for your items, including estimated taxes and fees, is displayed and included on your order confirmation email. Any approved changes to your order during shopping can update the final total in your order receipt.

These changes can include:

Added items: After you place an order, you can add items to it, either by modifying the order before it is shopped or by communicating with the Personal Shopper while it’s being shopped.

Substituted items: You can choose to have items substituted or not if something is unavailable. If an item is replaced, your receipt will be updated to reflect the replacement item price. If the replacement is more expensive than the item you ordered, you will be charged more. If the replacement is less expensive, you will be charged less.

Unavailable/refunded items: If an item is unavailable, your shopper will mark the item as refunded, and we’ll remove it from your item total. This will reduce the final amount of your order.

Weight adjustments: Personal Shoppers will try to get the exact weight of the items you requested, but it is likely the weight could be more or less than what you requested.  At the store, your shopper will input the correct item’s weights before checking out, which will update your item total. You will be charged for the weight you receive.

Some item weights, like produce, are measured by shoppers using in-store scales. The weight of items from the deli, meat and seafood counters are determined by the label applied in-store to those items.

Back To FAQ Topics

Why is the amount of my order different from the amount pending on my form of payment?

When a grocery pickup or delivery order is placed, a temporary hold is placed on your payment method for slightly more than the order total to cover any changes in the order total that might occur when your order is shopped. It is common for the order total to change due to weighted items, additions, and/or substitutions. Once your order is complete, your card will be charged for the final order total reflected on your order receipt, which can be more or less than the temporary hold amount. Please refer to the payment details on your order receipt for the final order total and the amount previously authorized when you placed the order.

If your order is canceled prior to being shopped, your bank will remove the temporary hold from your account. Please refer to your order confirmation email for the estimated amount of your order and the temporary hold amount authorized.

Back To FAQ Topics

Why did the taxes change on my final order?

When first placing your order, an estimate of the sales tax and any other applicable fees and taxes, such as bottle deposits and bag fees is applied to your total. These are the same types of fees that you would pay in the physical store. Estimated taxes and fees applicable to your order are visible on the right-hand side of the checkout page. Final taxes and fees will be included in your receipt after your order is picked and delivered. Any changes to your order when it’s shopped could result in adjustments to the taxes and/or fees.

Back To FAQ Topics

How do I return product I am not satisfied with?

To ensure the quality and safety of items, we do not accept returns for online orders. You may, however, receive a credit on you next order if you are not satisfied with your order for any reason.

The best way to receive help for orders placed through the Instacart website or App is by contacting the Instacart Support team at (888)-246-7822.

Back To FAQ Topics

Why doesn’t my delivery/grocery pickup receipt total match my list total?

There are many reasons why your receipt total might differ from your list total. Some reasons include:

  • Added items: after an order is placed, items can be added to the order.
  • Replacement items: if an item is replaced, the receipt will be updated with the price of the replacement item. This may differ from the price of the item that was originally on your list.
  • Weighted items: while the shoppers will try to get the exact weight of the items that you ordered, the actual weight will likely be slightly more or less. At checkout, the shopper will be sure to update the correct item weights.
  • Special Requests: if a certain product is specified in the notes section of the list, the shopper will do their best to accommodate that request. Since we don’t know the cost of special request items until the shopper finds them in the store, the item cost is not included on the customer’s list.

  • OTC drugs for which ID is required

Back To FAQ Topics

I share an account with someone else. Can we share the same list between two accounts and have it update as we make changes?

Yes, you can share a list but there are a few things that you need to be aware of:

  1. Cart items don’t refresh in real time if items are being added on different devices.
  2. If you are on the In-Store list and someone else adds an item, you need to exit the list and reopen it to pick up the added item.
  3. Same with the count ‘bubble’: the list icon has an item count bubble anytime you are not in the list itself and if someone else adds or removes an item, you need to tap into the list to see the update OR change location for the bubble to reflect the new item count.
  4. On desktop, refreshing the browser will also update the list and count bubble.
  5. Additionally, both lists must be in the same mode (for example, both must be In-Store or Online). One store being in Grocery Pickup mode while another is in In-Store mode will cause the contents of the list/cart to be different.

EBT SNAP as payment

Can I use my EBT SNAP card to order groceries online?

Yes! Customers can now use EBT SNAP cards when placing an order online. Please note that only EBT-eligible items can be paid for using SNAP funds. A primary payment method is required for non-EBT-eligible items and fees.

 

How do I know which items are SNAP eligible?

There is an EBT filter online and an EBT tag on items to quickly identify eligible products.

 

Is there an order minimum when I am paying with a EBT SNAP card?

No

 

Can I designate the amount to pay with a EBT SNAP card?

Yes, you can determine the amount charged to your EBT SNAP card up to the total amount of eligible products.

 

How can I add my EBT SNAP card online?

Under your account profile or during checkout.

 

Do I need to also use a credit card when paying with my EBT SNAP card?

Yes, you will need to enter a credit card in addition to EBT SNAP for ordering online to cover items and fees that are not EBT-eligible.

 

What do I do if I have a problem after receiving my grocery order? Will you refund my SNAP funds?

If EBT-eligible items require a refund, the refund will go back to the EBT SNAP card.

 

How will my order be charged if I add an item after I placed the order?

If the order has not begun to be shopped, you can add items to your order and adjust the SNAP EBT amount for your order. Select “Charge more to EBT” after adding EBT-eligible items to adjust the amount of funds used for the order. If it is not adjusted, all charges will be covered by the credit card on file. If the order is being shopped, any items added or changed through substitutions or communication with the shopper will be charged to the credit card on file.

 

How are weighted items that go over the pre-authorized amount charged?

For weighted items that go over the original estimated amount, the first 10% of the price difference will be charged to EBT. The remaining difference will be charged to your credit card.

 

How do I know that my EBT card has been entered correctly and will be charged?

Before clicking “Place Order,” you can check the payment breakdown in the paragraph below “Place Order.” If the EBT card has been entered correctly, it will say how much will be charged to the EBT card and how much your credit card will be authorized for. If you do not see both payments listed, double-check that everything is entered correctly under the payment field before placing your order.

 

My credit card was charged but not my EBT card. Can you charge my EBT card instead?

Unfortunately, we are not able to change the card that an order has been charged to after the order has been placed. You will need to cancel your order and place a new order with the correct payment methods selected.
