E-commerce giant Amazon prepares to shift its standard shipping time for Amazon Prime deliveries from two days down to one day. During a recent earnings call, Amazon announced it will spend $800 million to support faster free Prime shipping. Likely adding to Amazon’s efforts is Walmart’s recent e-commerce pilot offering free next-day delivery for purchases of $35 or more from Walmart.com. Walmart plans to provide this free next-day shipping to approximately 75 percent of the U.S. population by the end of 2019.
