10 July 2025: Last August, Woolworths launched Australia’s first digital supermarket trolley, allowing customers to scan and bag items and track their spend as they shop in 10 NSW stores. Following a successful trial, Scan&Go Trolleys will be launching in an additional 25 new stores in New South Wales and for the first time, VIC and QLD. 

Scan&Go Trolley is the next evolution of Scan&Go, and eliminates the need for customers to use their own mobile device to scan. Using their Everyday Rewards card, customers unlock a tablet style device from the charging wall at the front of the store and attach it to their trolley to start shopping. The Scan&Go Trolley allows customers to control their budget by tracking their spend in real time on the device screen and saving time by scanning and bagging as they go.

Managing Director for Woolworths360, Rob McCartney said “After the initial roll out to ten stores across New South Wales, customers have told us using the Scan&Go Trolley has resulted in a faster and more convenient shopping experience.

“We have noticed that over seventy percent of Scan&Go Trolley users are repeat customers, which supports our expansion into Victoria and Queensland respectively. To add, young families in particular have told us Scan&Go Trolley is helping them balance their budget, as they can track their spending in real time. 

“Scan&Go Trolleys are just another way for customers to shop their way and we’re pleased to add another convenient option, alongside our offering of traditional shopping in-stores, being served by a friendly team member, Direct to boot, using self service, Pick up or online delivery.”

The first Scan&Go Trolley launched last year and was developed in-house by Woolworths Group digital teams in close collaboration with supermarket operations to create a seamless in-store and digital shopping experience. 

How it Works:

  • Unlock a device: Scan your Everyday Rewards card to unlock a device and pop it on your trolley.

  • Scan your items: Scan your items using the built-in scanner, and pack your groceries as you go.

  • Pay and go: Once you're ready to check out, head to the self-serve checkout to pay for your shop.
