A microfluidic chip for causing the delivery of a payload to a cell comprises a plurality of constrictions configured to allow a cell suspension to flow through one or more of the plurality of constrictions from a first fluid flow region to a second fluid flow region within the microfluidic chip, wherein a cross-sectional width of each of the plurality of constrictions is less than a diameter of cells in the cell suspension, such that membranes of the cells are perturbed when passing through the constrictions such that a payload is able to pass through the perturbed cell membranes, and wherein a quotient of a cross-sectional area over a cross-sectional perimeter of each of the plurality of constrictions is greater than greater than or equal to 0.5 μm.
