Accessing your Kroger pay stubs is essential for managing your finances, verifying income, and understanding your earnings and deductions. Whether you're a current employee or a former one, Kroger provides a straightforward online portal for this purpose. Let's dive into a comprehensive, step-by-step guide to help you view your Kroger pay stubs with ease!
Let's Get Started! Are You Ready to Uncover Your Earnings?
Before we jump in, make sure you have a few things handy:
Your Kroger Enterprise User ID (EUID)
Your password for the Kroger employee portal
A stable internet connection
A device (computer, tablet, or smartphone)
If you're missing your EUID or password, don't worry, we'll cover how to address that later.
Step 1: Navigate to the Official Kroger Employee Portal
The first crucial step is to access the correct online portal. There are a couple of ways to get there, but the most common and recommended path is through the Kroger ExpressHR application or the Employee Self-Service (ESS) portal.
Sub-heading 1.1: Direct Access via ExpressHR
Open your preferred web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, etc.).
In the address bar, type in
www.kroger.com Once on the Kroger homepage, scroll down to the very bottom of the page.
Look for the "Company Information" column. Within this column, you should find a link for "ExpressHR" or "Employee Self-Service." Click on this link.
Sub-heading 1.2: Alternative Login via SecureWEB
Sometimes, you might be redirected to a SecureWEB login page. This is also a legitimate Kroger portal designed to keep your information secure.
You might find yourself on a page like
federation.kroger.com/identity/login sso.kroger.com/SecureWEB/kswlogin.fcc
Step 2: Log In to Your Account
Once you're on the login page, it's time to enter your credentials.
Sub-heading 2.1: Enter Your Enterprise User ID (EUID)
Locate the text box labeled "Enterprise User ID" or "EUID."
Carefully enter your EUID. Your EUID is typically your first initial, last initial, followed by a five-digit number (e.g., "jk12345").
Remember: IDs are not case-sensitive, so you can type letters as uppercase or lowercase.
Sub-heading 2.2: Input Your Password
Find the text box labeled "Password."
Enter your password. Important: Passwords ARE case-sensitive, so make sure your Caps Lock is off if needed.
Sub-heading 2.3: Troubleshooting Login Issues
Forgot your password? Look for a "Password Help" or "Forgot Password?" link on the login page. You'll likely be guided through a process to reset it. For Kroger employees, this might involve using the PassPort website (accessible from a work computer or approved remote access) or setting up a new password if you don't use your EUID for other company systems.
Can't find your EUID? If you don't know your EUID, contact your manager or an Information Security contact at your work location. They can help you retrieve it.
Still having trouble? If you're completely stuck, Kroger's support line can assist. Call 1-800-952-8889 and, after the automated prompt, dial 47. It's often recommended to be on a Kroger computer when you call, as they might be able to guide you more effectively through the system.
Step 3: Access Your Pay Stubs
Congratulations! You're logged in. Now, let's find those pay stubs.
Sub-heading 3.1: Locating the Pay Stub Section
Once logged into ExpressHR or the ESS portal, look for sections related to "Pay," "Payroll," "My Pay," or "Compensation and Taxes." The exact wording might vary slightly, but these are common labels.
Click on the relevant link to proceed.
Sub-heading 3.2: Viewing and Selecting Your Pay Stub
You'll likely see a list of your available pay stubs, typically organized by pay period date.
Identify the specific pay stub you wish to view.
There might be an "eye" icon, a "View" button, or a direct link next to each pay stub. Click on this to open the pay stub details.
Sub-heading 3.3: Understanding Your Pay Stub Information
A typical Kroger pay stub will include various details. Here's a quick rundown of what you'll find:
Employee Information: Your name, address, employee ID, and other personal details.
Company Information: Kroger's name and address.
Pay Period Dates: The start and end dates of the period for which you are being paid.
Pay Date: The actual date your payment was issued.
Gross Pay: Your total earnings before any deductions or taxes are taken out. This will often include your regular hours worked, hourly rate, and any overtime or other special pay.
Deductions (Pre-tax): Amounts taken out before taxes are calculated (e.g., 401(k) contributions, certain health insurance premiums).
Taxes:
Federal Income Tax (FIT/FWT): Withholding for federal taxes.
State Income Tax (SIT/SWT): Withholding for state taxes (if applicable in your state).
Social Security (SS/SSWT): Your contribution to Social Security.

Other Deductions (Post-tax): Amounts taken out after taxes (e.g., certain benefits, garnishments).
Net Pay: This is your take-home pay – the amount you actually receive after all deductions and taxes.
Year-to-Date (YTD) Information: These figures show your cumulative earnings, taxes, and deductions from the beginning of the calendar year up to the current pay stub. This is incredibly useful for tracking your financial progress.
Time Off Balances: Some pay stubs may also display your accrued and used vacation, sick, or personal time.
Step 4: Download or Print Your Pay Stub
Once you've viewed your pay stub and confirmed everything looks correct, you might want to save a copy for your records.
Look for a "Print" icon or button (often in the upper right corner of the screen or within the pay stub viewer).
Clicking "Print" will usually open a print dialog box. You can then:
Choose your connected printer to get a physical copy.
Select the option to "Save as PDF" or "Print to PDF" to download a digital copy to your device. This is highly recommended for easy digital record-keeping.
Save the PDF file to a secure location on your computer or cloud storage.
Step 5: Logging Out Securely
Once you're finished accessing your pay stubs, it's crucial to log out of the system to protect your personal information.
Look for a "Logout" or "Sign Out" button, usually in the top right corner of the page.
Click it to end your session securely. This is especially important if you are using a shared or public computer.
