Prime Now launched in New York last year and subsequently expanded into cities including Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Chicago, Dallas, Indianapolis and Miami.
Members who enroll in the service for $99 per year can receive free delivery of selected items within two hours between 8 a.m. and midnight. For an additional $7.99, members can receive their items in one hour.
The service includes thousands of items from paper towels to food products to electronics, but Seattle-area customers will also be able to order beer, wine and liquor.
“Customers love the convenience of one-hour delivery and we’re excited to bring Prime Now to our hometown customers in Seattle and surrounding areas," Prime Now director Stephenie Landry said in a statement.
