Club nationwide.

The Scan & Go app allows Sam’s Club members to scan as they go, pay from
their phone, then simply show a digital receipt as they leave. For those
mindful of holiday budgets, the new app also allows users to easily
track spending throughout their trip.
To get started, Android and iPhone users download the free app, which
includes a digital version of their membership card. Once inside their
local Sam’s Club, they can use the app to scan UPC codes on items in
their cart. When a member is done shopping, they pay directly on their
phone from anywhere in the club, bypass the register and show their
digital receipt to an associate on their way out.
“We understand the holidays can create a major time crunch for our
members, so we’re using technology to ease the stress of holiday
shopping,” said Rosalind Brewer, president and CEO of Sam’s Club. “With
Scan & Go, members can skip the checkout line and give themselves the
gift of more time with their families. Members can also use the app at a
number of savings events throughout November and December, saving money
and time.”
A season filled with exclusive events kicks off in clubs at 7 a.m. on
Sat., Nov. 12. On this day, every Sam’s Club across the country will
host a One Day Only event with some of the lowest prices of the
season on electronics and items for the home (while supplies last and no
