Amazon has confirmed the launch of Prime Now, a service in NYC that promises delivery in as quick as an hour between 6am and midnight. Right now, there are 25,000 eligible items and 9 eligible zip codes, which will continue expanding into next year.
You must have a $99 per year Amazon Prime subscription to use Prime Now, and the expedited delivery will cost just $7.99 for one-hour delivery and free for two-hour delivery.
For the past few weeks, Amazon has been testing the service with bike couriers in downtown Manhattan. The e-tailer has leased a building across from the Empire State Building for merchandise and office space.
To use Prime Now you must download the Prime Now mobile app, which allows you to search and order in seconds.
