Amazon Prime makes same-day delivery free in 14 cities

It seems Amazon is continuing its push to improve delivery service in the face of rivals trying to challenge the internet shopping giant. The company just announced that it is making its same-day delivery option free for select Prime subscribers, doing away with the previous $5.99 fee. Amazon says orders will need to be over $35 and placed before noon on the day of delivery. The other limitations include that the service is only available in 14 metropolitan areas, and on roughly one million products.

Amazon promises that customers who choose same-day delivery will receive their packages by 9:00 pm on the day they order. The funny thing here is that Amazon’s other super quick delivery option, dubbed Prime Now, already offers free same-day shipping with delivery in two hours or less. And Prime Now is already available in three of the cities included in the now free same-day delivery option: New York, Baltimore, and Atlanta.
