In an effort to provide a more streamlined shopping experience for its customers, the grocery chain SpartanNash has developed an app that tightens the gap between the online and offline shopping worlds.
The exciting new offering enables shoppers to browse the best weekly deals in addition to clipping and collecting digital coupons. To build consumer loyalty, the app features a reward system that tracks each user's progress and helps them receive additional savings.
Once the shopper has added all of the items into their virtual cart, they can opt for curbside pick-up, or, to have the groceries delivered to their door. This all-in-one app streamlines the grocery shopping experience while ensuring shoppers are making the most of their money.
