How Kronos fits a Instacart workflow

Instacart payout model: Weekly direct deposit every Wednesday, or Instant Cashout for $0.50 per cashout.

Typical earnings: Full-service Instacart Shoppers earn $12–$22 per hour including tips.

Where it hurts: Customers can reduce or zero out tips after delivery. Instant Cashout fees stack up.

What Kronos adds: Kronos sits next to your existing Instacart income flow. You link the bank account Instacart deposits into — Kronos reads the deposits and underwrites an cashflow against them. Earnings tools settle to your Kronos deposit account or your linked bank, your choice. Repayment is automatic on your next Instacart payout.

Why Instacart Shoppers are joining

FAQ — Instacart × Kronos

Does Kronos work with Instacart?

How much can I borrow as a Instacart Shopper?
Up to on the free tier and up to on Kronos Pro. The amount is underwritten against your verified Instacart deposit history. No credit check. No interest on Pro.
How is this different from Instacart's built-in instant pay?
Customers can reduce or zero out tips after delivery. Instant Cashout fees stack up. Kronos is a separate banking app — your Instacart earnings still land in your bank as usual, and Kronos reads the deposits to unlock larger earnings tools ahead of the next payout, with no per-cashout fee.
Can I still use my existing bank account?
Yes. You can link your current bank to Kronos, or open a Kronos deposit account alongside it. Both work.
Is Kronos FDIC insured?
Yes. Kronos deposits are held through FDIC-insured banking partners via our our banking partner integration. Kronos is registered with FinCEN.
Does Kronos charge interest on earnings tools?
No. Earnings tools are not loans. There's no interest on Kronos Pro. Fees are disclosed upfront on every cashflow.
