Prime members in Calgary, Edmonton, and select surrounding communities can now receive millions of items faster than ever before. Amazon Canada has expanded its Same-Day and Overnight Delivery options to Alberta’s largest cities, offering even more convenience just in time for the upcoming Prime Day on July 8.
These upgraded delivery speeds are perfect for last-minute summer travel items, birthday gifts, or everyday essentials. With clearly labeled “Prime Same-Day” and “Prime Overnight” items, plus the easy-to-use “Get it Today” filter, shopping for urgent needs has never been easier for Canadians.
Prime members in these regions can now enjoy:
- Same-Day Delivery in as fast as 7 hours on eligible orders
- Overnight Delivery on orders placed as late as 8:30 p.m., with arrival windows as early as 4 a.m. the next day
- Free delivery on orders over $25 (or $6.99 for orders under $25) or $11.99 per order for non-Prime customers
This expansion is made possible through Amazon’s continued investment in Canada, including:
- 12 fulfillment facilities in Alberta, supporting more than 7,000 employees across the prairie region
- A 2025 commitment of hundreds of millions of dollars globally toward safety-focused technologies, training, and programs
- Support for Amazon’s 46,000 Canadian employees and thousands of Alberta-based small and medium-sized businesses selling through Amazon’s store
“After successfully launching faster Same-Day and Overnight Delivery in the Greater Toronto Area, Southwestern Ontario, and Metro Vancouver last summer, Amazon has expanded these services to Prime members in Calgary, Edmonton, and select surrounding communities. This expansion not only enhances the Prime member experience with faster delivery, but builds on Amazon’s investments in the Alberta, driving both customer satisfaction and economic growth across the province,” said the company.
“With this expansion, Amazon is enhancing its existing Same-Day Delivery service while adding Overnight Delivery options for Prime members in Calgary, Edmonton, and select surrounding communities. Although Same-Day Delivery has been available in these areas previously, customers can now receive their orders even faster on millions of items from top brands across 35+ categories.
“These expedited delivery services come with different pricing tiers: Prime members receive free delivery on orders over $25, or pay just $6.99 for orders under $25, while non-Prime customers pay $11.99 per order regardless of order size.”
By placing products closer to customers, Amazon said it has reduced travel distances and handoffs while maintaining consistent processes for employees.
“The health and safety of these employees remain the company’s top priority. In 2025 alone, we’ve allocated hundreds of millions of dollars globally to invest in technologies, resources, training, and programs to further our safety efforts. These investments not only benefit Amazon’s 46,000 employees across Canada but also empower the thousands of Alberta-based small and medium-sized businesses who sell their products to millions of customers on Amazon’s store, further strengthening the local economy,” it said.
