My guess is infrastructure

Half a billion worth of infrastructure?
Might be more like "we'd lose more than 500M while we build our own" so a 500M price tag makes sense to have it now.
Would they really? They already have a good amount of developers working on their apps and websites. Now this app will be consolidated as an extra feature on the Target app. I really seem to be missing something here. Jet acquisition made (atleast some) sense because it had much bigger employee count and showed it can run okay.

What I know for sure is that the investors are super happy with their returns.
