But, when you're a new Instacart Shopper<\/a>, it can also take time to familiarize yourself with the app and learn how to get started.<\/p>\n Plus, one common question new shoppers have relates to Instacart demo orders, how to complete them, and what they even are in the first place.<\/p>\n So, this Instacart demo order guide will cover everything you need to know about this feature and how you can start making extra cash!<\/p>\n Let's get to it.<\/p>\n Want to try other high-paying side hustle ideas? Checkout<\/strong>:<\/p>\n Instacart demo orders are a feature in the Instacart Shopper app that are practice Instacart orders you can complete without actually shopping. The purpose is to help new Shoppers learn how to use the app. You can find demo orders in the Instacart Shopper app by tapping on the “Menu” icon and then tapping on “Demo Orders.”<\/strong><\/p>\n When you visit this section, you should see numerous types of orders for different stores, like a Kroger or Walmart in your area.<\/p>\n If you tap on an Instacart demo order, it also displays additional information, like the fake Instacart customer, distance to the store, and how many items are in the order.<\/p>\n Note<\/strong>: This is just a practice tool for new Instacart Shoppers, not a real order<\/strong>!<\/p>\n But, it's still helpful to complete Instacart demo orders so you can learn how the app works and how to deal with different types of orders.<\/p>\n Demo orders on Instacart aren't real orders. You don't have to go to the store and actually shop for your customer since it's a test order designed to teach you how to use the Shopper app.<\/p>\n These orders are still a good idea to complete so you can learn how everything works. But don't get stressed and rush to the store since these aren't real orders.<\/p>\n When you tap on a demo order, you can also tap a green “Accept” button to start the order. Again, this is a fake order and you don't have to actually go to the store to complete an Instacart demo order<\/strong>.<\/p>\n But, different orders will have different types of items on them. Some common examples include:<\/p>\n Products also display their location in a grocery store, price, and have other buttons you would see on a real Instacart order, like a “can't find item” button and “message customer” button you would use if you have to make a substitution or update the customer.<\/p>\n You can also use the “Found Item” button to mark products as being found which is what you do on a real Instacart shopping trip.<\/p>\n If you want a great video on how to complete Instacart demo orders, I suggest watching the last few minutes of this video from YouTuber Your Driver Mike:<\/p>\n\n
