## How Store Coverage Works
|
|
|
|
CartSnitch connects to stores through their loyalty program APIs. When you connect your store account, we read your purchase history and current pricing data — without ever seeing your login credentials.
|
|
|
|
**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.
