  • Jet is an online shopping site that's been likened to Amazon.

  • Though they both boast a large selection of products at low prices, Jet also features some clear differences: multiple ways to save, a referral program, its own brand Uniquely J, and collaborations with non-profit organizations.

  • While we love Amazon as much as the next person, Jet shows that you should still be shopping around when it comes to finding great products, deals, and incentives. 

Millions of people shop on Amazon for, well, everything. Because of its low prices and ubiquitous use, you might assume it's the best and cheapest place where you can throw razor refills, a bed frame, a five pound bag of candy, and a camera all into one cart.

Though some things like Kindle e-readers, Echo devices, and streaming services are exclusive to Amazon and it makes the most sense to purchase them from Amazon, you might consider diversifying your purchase choices for more common household essentials, home goods, clothing, health and beauty products, and appliances. 

Walmart-owned shopping site Jet, which first launched in July 2015, is often compared to its 22-year-old competitor Amazon. At a glance, they seem pretty similar — low prices, good deals, fast and reliable shipping, and a huge offering of products across all categories — leaving many shoppers to question why they should shop at Jet. 

We found that there is more to this young brand than meets the eye, and several of its features distinguish it from Amazon. Learn more about the bold and quirky company that's taking on Amazon its own ways below.
