  • We charge a $5.99 convenience fee for all orders, with no order minimums. This fee helps to off-set the technology costs necessary to operate our Curbside program.

  • The provisional charge is a temporary amount added to your order total—$5 or 10% of the item total, whichever is higher—which allows for small changes to the amount of your order, such as those from bottle deposits, final sales tax, and items sold by weight.

    When your order is complete, we charge your card for exactly what was in your final order, and no more.

    PLEASE NOTE: Adding any items to your order may result in additional pending hold(s) for the new total of your order. For catering orders, the provision charge will still appear, but will not be charged when we process payment

  • We accept all major credit cards, debit cards, EBT, and co-op gift cards.

    About using co-op gift cards for curbside:

    You may use a Merc gift card to pay for all or part of your Curbside order, but you will still need to provide one of the standard payment methods (credit, debit, EBT/SNAP) to place your order.

    To use a Merc Co+op gift card on a Curbside order, please include the following information with your order, or email it to us:

    1. The gift card number below the bar code The amount on the card (if known)

    2. The amount you wish you use (either of what’s on the card or what’s on the order)

    If you pay with a gift card, you will receive a receipt stating any remaining balance on the card(s) along with your order receipt.

  • Yes! If you are unable to pick up your own order, you may designate another person to pick it up for you. Simply provide us the name of the person who will pick up your order, and have them call and give their name and the name on the order when they arrive.

  • Yes! You may make changes to your order online until we begin shopping your order. Here’s how:

    1. Click My Account, then My Orders, then click your order number.

    2. Make any changes (add or remove items, change amounts, etc.)

    3. Finish your order as normal.

    If you cannot make changes, then our shoppers have already begun picking your order. At this point, you may call the Curbside department at 785-843-8544 ext. 235 or email us to request changes to your order.

    Changes while the order is being shopped cannot be guaranteed. We will, however, do our best to make these changes if payment hasn’t been processed yet.

    PLEASE NOTE: If you make any changes to your order that exceed the provisional hold, the system will require you re-enter payment information to cover an additional provisional hold for each new estimated total of your order. In some cases, your bank may not let go of the original hold for up to one week. Please know that this is a limitation enforced by your bank and not by The Merc Co+op.
