Aldi Nord and Aldi Süd Reject App Discounts: One Price for All

Aldi Nord and Aldi Süd said they will not offer app-only coupons or loyalty prices, launching ad campaigns that pitch the same shelf price for every shopper against rivals' bonus apps.

Aldi Nord and Aldi Süd said they will not use loyalty apps or app-only coupon prices, positioning themselves against a "two-till society" in which shoppers without a smartphone pay more^[1][2].
"The Aldi price doesn't have to be activated, searched for or unlocked. It applies to everyone," the two companies said^[1][2].
They cite research that loyalty apps and coupon prices lead shoppers to spend up to 30% more^[1][2].
Both chains back the stance with advertising campaigns showing how simple shopping can be without conditions^[1].
Aldi stresses its simple model: about 2,000 products on about 1,000 m², against about 12,000 in a typical supermarket, and around 90% own brands that are on average 50% cheaper than branded equivalents^[1][2].
