Evaluating Additional Stores

How Store Coverage Works

When you connect your store account, CartSnitch reads your purchase history and current pricing data from your loyalty account — without ever seeing your login credentials. We use read-only access to your loyalty account data.

What you get when your store is supported:

  • Personalized price alerts on products you buy
  • Accurate basket cost comparison across your stores
  • Shrinkflation detection on your actual purchases

What this requires:

  • An active loyalty account with the store
  • Willingness to connect the account (you can disconnect at any time)

Privacy Note

We never store your store login credentials. Our integration uses read-only access to your loyalty account data. We store only the minimum data needed to calculate unit prices and compare baskets.

Don't See Your Store?

We're building CartSnitch's store coverage as fast as we can. The grocery market is fragmented and each integration requires technical work.

How to request a store:

  1. Sign up for beta
  2. Go to Settings > Request a Store
  3. Submit your store name and location

We review requests weekly and prioritize stores with the highest demand and broadest geographic coverage.
