Next, you'll need to link your existing Kroger Shopper's Card.
If you have a physical card: Enter the 11, 12, or 13-digit number found on the back of your card (it usually starts with a '4').
If you use an Alternate ID (like your phone number) at checkout: You may be prompted to enter this instead. If not, you might need to call Kroger customer service (1-800-576-4377) to get your card number.
If you don't have a Shopper's Card at all: The app will likely give you the option to create a virtual one during the registration process. This is great because you get all the benefits without needing a physical card!
Follow any additional prompts to complete your registration, such as selecting your preferred store or agreeing to terms and conditions.
Once successfully registered, you'll be logged into your new digital account.

Kroger Pay is an even more integrated solution that combines your Shopper's Card and payment into one scan.
Within the Kroger app, navigate to the "Kroger Pay" section (often found in the "More" menu or as a prominent button on the home screen).
If you haven't set it up before: You'll be guided through a simple setup process, which involves creating a 4-digit PIN and linking your preferred payment method (credit/debit card, etc.).
Once set up, when you're at checkout, simply open Kroger Pay in the app. It will generate a QR code that securely transmits both your Shopper's Card information and your chosen payment. One scan, and you're done! It's incredibly efficient and contact-free.

The final step is to put your digital card to good use!

When you're at the checkout lane (either with a cashier or at self-checkout), simply open your Kroger app and pull up your digital barcode (from Step 3).
Hold your phone's screen with the barcode directly under the scanner. The scanner will read the barcode, applying all your digital coupons, fuel points, and other loyalty benefits.
If using Kroger Pay, scan the generated QR code.
Sub-heading: Providing Your Alternate ID
If for some reason the barcode isn't scanning, or if you prefer, you can always tell the cashier your Alternate ID (usually your phone number) linked to your Kroger account. They can manually enter it to ensure you receive your savings.
Troubleshooting Tips: When Things Don't Go as Planned
Even with the best intentions, technology can sometimes be finicky. Here are a few common issues and their solutions:

Card Not Displaying: Ensure you are logged in to your account. Sometimes, a temporary internet connection issue can prevent the card from loading. Check your Wi-Fi or cellular data.
Forgot Password: Use the "Forgot Password?" link on the sign-in screen to reset your password.

Old Deals/Coupons Showing: Make sure your app is updated to the latest version. Outdated apps can sometimes display incorrect information.
