| How Do I Use Coupons On Kroger App |
Step 1: Getting Started – Download the App & Sign In (Or Sign Up!)
-
Are you new to the Kroger app? No worries, we've got you covered!
-
Download the Kroger App: Head over to your device's app store (Google Play Store for Android or Apple App Store for iOS) and search for "Kroger." Download and install the official app.
-
Create Your Account: Once installed, open the app. You'll likely see an option to "Sign In" or "Create Account." If you don't have a Kroger digital account, choose "Create Account." Follow the prompts to enter your email address, create a password, and link your existing Kroger Shopper's Card. If you don't have a Shopper's Card, the app will guide you through creating a virtual one or applying for a physical card. It's absolutely essential to link your Shopper's Card to your digital account for coupon savings to apply!

-
Simply Sign In: Open the app and sign in with your existing email and password. Make sure your Shopper's Card is linked to your account. You can usually verify this in your "Profile Information" or "Account Settings" within the app.

Step 2: Discovering Your Digital Treasure Chest – Finding Coupons
Now that you're logged in, it's time for the fun part: finding those amazing deals!
Sub-heading 2.1: Navigating to the Coupon Section
-
Look for "Savings" or "Coupons": On the Kroger app's main screen or navigation menu, you'll typically find a section dedicated to "Savings" or "Digital Coupons." Tap on this to explore all available offers.
QuickTip: Pause after each section to reflect.
Sub-heading 2.2: Browse and Filtering Coupons
-
Explore Categories: Kroger organizes coupons by categories like "Dairy," "Produce," "Snacks," "Household," etc. This makes it easy to find coupons for the items you regularly buy.
-
Search Functionality: Have a specific item in mind? Use the search bar within the coupon section to quickly locate coupons for that product.
-
Sort Options: You can often sort coupons by:
-
Relevance: Based on your past purchases.
-
Expiration Date: To catch those expiring deals.
-
Value: To see the biggest savings first.
-
Newest: To see recently added offers.
-
-
Weekly Digital Deals & Personalized Offers: Keep an eye out for these! Kroger often has special weekly digital deals that offer significant discounts, and they also provide personalized coupons based on your shopping habits. The more you shop with your Shopper's Card, the more personalized your offers become!
Step 3: Clipping Your Savings – Adding Coupons to Your Card
This is where the magic happens! Digital coupons need to be "clipped" to your Shopper's Card before you can redeem them.
-
Tap "Clip" or "Load to Card": When you see a coupon you want to use, simply tap the "Clip" or "Load to Card" button associated with that offer. You'll typically see a confirmation that the coupon has been added to your card.
-
Review Coupon Details: Before clipping, it's always a good idea to tap on the coupon itself to view the full details. This includes:
-
Qualifying Products: Make sure you're buying the exact brand, size, and quantity specified.
-
Expiration Date: Don't miss out on a deal because it expired!
-
Limitations: Some coupons have limits on the number of times they can be used per household.
-
-
"My Coupons" Section: After clipping, you can often go to a "My Coupons" or "Clipped Coupons" section within the app to see all the digital coupons you've loaded to your card. This is super helpful for planning your shopping trip!
Step 4: The Checkout – Redeeming Your Digital Coupons In-Store
This is the moment of truth!
-
At the Register: When you're ready to check out, you'll need to link your Shopper's Card to your purchase. You can do this in a few ways:
-
Swipe Your Physical Shopper's Card: If you have the physical card, simply swipe it at the self-checkout or hand it to the cashier.
-
Enter Your Alt ID: Your Alt ID is usually your phone number associated with your Kroger account. Enter this on the keypad at checkout.
-
Scan Your Digital Shopper's Card (Kroger Pay): The Kroger app often has a "Kroger Pay" feature or a digital barcode of your Shopper's Card. You can scan this barcode at checkout for a seamless experience.
-
-
Automatic Application: Once your Shopper's Card is linked, your clipped digital coupons will automatically apply to qualifying items in your cart. You don't need to do anything else!
-
Check Your Receipt: After your transaction is complete, always review your receipt. Digital coupon savings will appear as "ecpn" or similar abbreviations next to the qualifying items. This confirms that your discounts were applied correctly.
Step 5: Online Orders – Using Coupons for Pickup or Delivery
If you prefer the convenience of online shopping, using digital coupons is just as easy!
-
Build Your Cart: Add your desired items to your online cart through the Kroger app or website.
-
Linked Account: As long as your Kroger digital account (with your Shopper's Card linked) is signed in, clipped digital coupons will automatically apply to qualifying items in your online cart as you add them.
-
Review Before Checkout: Before finalizing your pickup or delivery order, double-check your cart summary to ensure all applicable digital coupons have been deducted. The savings will be reflected in your total.
Tip: Skim once, study twice.
