Using the Kroger Website:

Sign in to your digital account at
www.kroger.com -
Look for a navigation tab or section usually labeled "Save" or "Digital Coupons." Click on it.
-
You'll be presented with a wide variety of coupons. You can often filter them by category (e.g., "Dairy," "Produce," "Snacks"), brand, or even search for specific items.

Using the Kroger Mobile App:

-
Remember: Kroger's digital coupons are just like paper coupons, but much more convenient! They're designed to be loaded directly to your Shopper's Card.
Step 3: Clip 'Em! Loading Coupons to Your Card
This is the action step! Finding the coupons is one thing, but you need to "clip" them (digitally, of course) to your card for them to apply at checkout.
Sub-heading: Simple Clicks for Big Savings
-
As you browse the digital coupons, you'll see a button next to each one, typically labeled "Load to Card," "Clip," or a similar phrase.
-
Simply click or tap this button for each coupon you want to use.
-
Once you click it, the coupon will be added to your Shopper's Card. You'll usually see a confirmation message, and the button might change to "Loaded" or "Clipped."
Important Note: Digital coupons are available as soon as you load them to your card. There's no waiting period! However, connectivity or network issues might occasionally impact successful loading, so it's always good to have a stable internet connection.
Sub-heading: Keeping Track of Your Clipped Coupons
-
Both the website and the app usually have a "My Coupons" or "Clipped Coupons" section. This allows you to view all the coupons you've loaded to your card.
-
You can often print a list of your clipped coupons from the "My Coupons" tab on the website if you like to have a physical reminder.
-
Expiration dates are clearly displayed on each coupon, so be sure to check them before you shop!
Step 4: Shop Smart! Purchasing Qualifying Items
Now that your coupons are loaded, it's time to hit the aisles! Make sure you purchase the exact qualifying items for the coupons to apply.

Tip: Summarize each section in your own words.
-
Read the Fine Print: Always double-check the coupon details. Do they require a specific brand, size, quantity, or flavor? For example, a coupon might be for "$1 off Any Brand Cereal," while another might be for "$0.75 off Kellogg's Frosted Flakes, Large Size."
-
Don't Overdo It: Most digital coupons are limited to one redemption per household unless otherwise specified. Some might allow for 3 redemptions of the same coupon per day, per household. Check the coupon policy for details.
-
In-Store vs. Online: Digital coupons loaded to your card work for both in-store purchases and online orders (Pickup or Delivery). For Pickup orders, digital coupons are applied at the time of pickup.
Step 5: Check Out & Save! Redeeming Your Digital Coupons
This is the moment of truth! Redeeming your digital coupons is remarkably simple.
Sub-heading: Effortless Application at the Register
-
In-Store: When you're at the checkout, simply scan your Kroger Shopper's Card or enter your Alternate ID (the phone number you linked to your account) at the register. The system automatically detects the qualifying items in your cart and applies the loaded digital coupons.
-
Online Orders (Pickup/Delivery): If you've placed an online order, ensure your Shopper's Card or Alt ID is linked to your online account. The digital coupon savings will automatically be applied to your purchase at the time of pickup or delivery.
Sub-heading: Confirmation of Savings
-
Check Your Receipt: After your transaction is complete, review your receipt carefully. Digital coupon discounts will appear underneath the qualifying item(s) and are usually identified as "ecpn" (e-coupon). This is your confirmation that your savvy couponing paid off!
What if a coupon doesn't apply? Occasionally, issues can arise. If you notice a coupon didn't apply at the register, politely ask the cashier for assistance. If you're home, you can contact Kroger's Customer Care Center.
