Making Nutritious & Delicious Choices Easier with Instacart and WeightWatchers
New WeightWatchers integration with Instacart unlocks ability to browse ‘Points’-friendly recipes, shop for ingredients, and get everything delivered to your door – now live in the WeightWatchers app
In the hustle of everyday life, making time for yummy, nutritious, and healthful choices can feel daunting, even with the best intentions. It’s that challenge of finding a balance between convenience and nourishment that led us to an exciting collaboration. Imagine the power of WeightWatchers’ delicious, nourishing recipes combined with the simplicity and convenience of Instacart shopping. Today, we’re excited to share that shoppable WeightWatchers recipes are now available to WeightWatchers members in the WeightWatchers app.
The Delectable Details
For decades, WeightWatchers has stood at the forefront of nurturing healthier lifestyle choices, guiding their members through comprehensive, evidence-based weight health programs. These programs are about understanding how to build livable healthy habits into your life through nutrition, activity and sleep. As part of the nutritional piece and to make healthy eating more seamless and satisfying, WeightWatchers unique in-app feature, “What to Eat” allows members to browse thousands of Points-friendly recipes, as well as curate collections of meal planning and snack ideas like the “Cooking for 1” cart, the “Snacker’s” cart, and “Zero-Point Essentials” cart.
But what’s inspiration without action? In today’s world, the bridge from “I want to make healthier choices” to “I am making healthier choices” is often rife with obstacles – traffic jams, crowded stores, or just simply the lack of time. By connecting WeightWatchers’ “What to Eat” feature with Instacart, WeightWatchers members can now turn their good intentions into immediate action by adding the ingredients they need to their Instacart cart, and get everything delivered right to their door in as little as 30 minutes from their favorite grocery store. No more traffic, no more lines and no more “what’s for dinner” panic. It’s all about making healthy choices, easy choices.
The Daphne Oz breakfast list
Also available is a curated breakfast list from influencer Daphne Oz, which includes everything you need to make Daphne’s favorites, from banana bread waffles to spicy tomato-poached eggs. Daphne’s cart will join other inspirational carts from influencers and carts created by the WeightWatchers Nutrition & Science team, all to make shopping more seamless and healthful.
A Special Offer to Kickstart a Healthier Routine
To celebrate this delicious partnership, Instacart and WeightWatchers will be offering exclusive, limited-time deals to its customers. New to Instacart? WeightWatchers members trying Instacart for the first time can slice $25 off their next grocery haul of $75 or more.* And there’s more goodness on the horizon – in the coming months, select Instacart users will also have a chance to snag 50% off a 6-month subscription to WeightWatchers.**
Powered by the Instacart Developer Platform
This new integration is powered by the Instacart Developer Platform (IDP), a new API program that helps turn discovery apps into delivery apps via an API that lets Instacart partners tap into Instacart’s vast grocery marketplace and real-world logistics. Experiences built with the IDP API can provide consumers with seamless access to item availability and inventory data for products sold by their favorite retailers in communities across the US and Canada.
Cheers to an easier and more convenient path to nutritious and delicious food!
