In this article, we’ll cover how Kroger pickup works, how to order using the Kroger app, whether you can use coupons for pickup orders, Kroger’s tipping policy, and more!

How Does Kroger Pickup Work?

Kroger Pickup lets you order groceries online to be picked up at your local store. You can order through the Kroger app or the website, and a Kroger associate will prepare your items. Then, you simply call the phone number when you arrive at the pickup area, and an associate will bring your order and load it into your car.

When you shop at Kroger online using their app or the website, you will have pickup and delivery options to choose from. For pickup orders, you’ll need to select your pickup day and a time slot.

Kroger pickup times are one-hour time slots and can be scheduled up to seven days in advance.

Head to your local store within your selected time slot and park in the designated pickup area. A Kroger associate will bring your order and load it into your car.

If you selected Same-day pickup, make sure to review your items, location, and pickup time, as changes cannot be made once an order is placed.

If you need to change your same-day pickup order, you will need to cancel and place it again, but you may risk losing your reserved time slot.

You can make changes to Next-day Pickup orders until midnight of the day before your scheduled pickup.

There may be times when your selected item becomes unavailable or out of stock. Upon checkout, you can choose whether you’d like your items to be substituted for a similar item.

If you’re not happy with the substitutions made, you can reject them before your order is loaded into your car. You can also return them later to the store and get a full refund.

If you want someone else to pick up your Kroger order, they will need a valid ID. In addition, if you’re purchasing alcohol or any age-restricted items, you will be asked to enter your birth date before checkout and provide a valid ID during pickup.

For additional assistance with your pickup order, you can call Kroger Customer Service at 1-800-KRO-GERS (1-800-576-4377)
