Pick n Pay on Monday said it launched a powerful new app that brings together its on-demand delivery service asap!, Smart Shopper loyalty programme, and value-added services into a single, next-generation platform.
The retailer said it is its most significant digital milestone since launching asap!.
"The asap! back-end and front-end technology has been completely re-platformed over the past 18 months, resulting in the new 'Pick n Pay asap! and Smart Shopper' app. It features enhanced performance, AI-driven functionality, and a redesigned user experience that makes it easier for customers to shop, save, and receive groceries. These improvements are expected to drive strong growth in the coming year," Pick n Pay said.
AI-powered performance, redesigned user experience, and expanded features aim to drive growth and elevate the shopping experience.

The new app is in Beta until the end of September 2025, with new features and improvements being added every week.
Pick n Pay added that its online business, primarily asap! and PnP groceries on the Mr D app, continues to perform strongly.
"Online retail sales for the 53 weeks ending 2 March 2025 (FY25) grew 48.7% year-on-year, with on-demand growing at 60%. Thanks to scale gains, the Online business is now profitable on a fully costed basis," the retailer said.
The new Pick n Pay asap! app offers a basket limit of 45 items, access to over 35,000 products, and has grown to 600 locations across South Africa.
Growth in new and active customers continues, and average order values are rising as more customers shop for full-basket essentials, not just top-up items. While early growth was driven mainly by company-owned stores, the platform is now seeing significant adoption by franchisees, with triple-digit sales growth in FY25.
'This new app is the biggest moment for Pick n Pay Online since we launched asap! in 2020, a move that grew online sales more than elevenfold in under five years. It's the culmination of a four-year journey that began with the rapid rollout of on-demand grocery deliveries during the pandemic. Now, we've brought our online services into one seamless platform, a major step to accelerate growth and elevate the customer experience,' Enrico Ferigolli, Retail Executive: Online at Pick n Pay said.

The app launch aligns with Pick n Pay's new strategic direction under CEO Sean Summers, which includes a renewed focus on online retail.
'The broader business has undergone significant transformation, and online has been no exception. We were given the green light to make bold changes, many long overdue, and we've completely restructured store operations and logistics to support our online growth,' Ferigolli further said.
'Just three months ago, up to 40% of our fleet was made up of cars. Today, 87% of our deliveries are done via motorbike. This boosts efficiency and speed and gives our brand greater visibility on the road. We are also reporting ongoing improvements in key operational metrics, including picking and delivery time. In just the first 11 weeks of FY26, we reduced our average delivery time by a remarkable 24%. This improvement has been made possible by the support and trust to make the overdue operational shifts needed to lay the foundation for scalable growth.'
Built using modern technologies that are fully optimised for iOS and Android, the new app is designed to scale and evolve.
'We've created a future-proof platform that allows us to add features and improve services quickly for a much better user experience.'
New features now available for asap! customers in the app include being able to select their preferred store, load multiple payment cards, place multiple orders at once, schedule deliveries outside of the standard one-hour window, and track orders.
A new pre-authorisation payment system also means customers are only charged for delivered items, eliminating the need for a wallet or refunds.
'This is just the beginning. In the coming months, we'll introduce even more exciting features to make shopping Pick n Pay easier and launch features to resolve customer queries faster, improving the overall delivery experience."
The app also uses best-in-class AI search that learns a customer's shopping behaviour, offering smarter product suggestions and streamlining the browsing experience.
'Our AI helps customers find what they need faster or discover products they'll love. For example, if a customer is browsing specials, we'll prioritise the deals they're most likely to purchase based on their past purchases,' Ferigolli said.
The integration of Smart Shopper into the app also improves ease of use. For example, new asap! users will see their 'Buy Again' section pre-populated with their past purchases, even if the customer had not previously shopped asap!.
Customers can now earn and spend Smart Shopper points with every order, and soon, they'll be able to redeem personalised discounts and Club benefits.
The Smart Shopper section of the app lets customers sign up digitally, update their profile, and easily track their points and rewards.
Meanwhile, the new 'Services' section allows customers to pay bills and purchase airtime or data, with more convenient features coming soon.
To further strengthen its online offering, Pick n Pay's website (pnp.co.za) will also relaunch with the asap! on-demand service rolling out from 1 June 2025.
'Millions of customers still browse catalogues and promotions on desktop, so the opportunity to convert that interest into online purchases is huge. These customers can now access the same fast delivery as our asap! customers without the use of the app. Website orders from 1 June 2025 will be picked from 600 asap! locations compared to the previous 47 stores allocated to pnp.co.za orders, which allows us to lower the delivery fee to just R35,' Ferigolli added.
With its upgraded logistics, fully dedicated picking team, streamlined customer experience, and fully integrated services, Pick n Pay is confident that the Online business is ready for its next growth stage.
'We now have all the pieces in place. Our latest upgrades enhance the customer experience and improve our efficiency and scalability. We're positioned to grow faster than ever,' Ferigolli said.

SA practising damaging politics of the zero-sum game
While there are many prisms through which you can attempt to understand our politics, one may be to examine whether people see the entire process as a zero-sum game. There may now be mounting evidence that more politicians and voters believe every single issue must be reduced to winners and losers. Anyone with much experience of life will be aware that, as a general rule, when life improves for one person, it often improves for another. This happens in an economy all the time. It is well known that one restaurant in one city block might be popular enough to bring in a certain number of customers. But a group of competing restaurants in the same place are much more likely to bring in a much bigger number. In other words, you are more likely to be successful through sharing space with other restaurants. Growing an economy might well rest on this. One cannot just make a product and sell it on your own. You need to be part of a chain that enables your market and ensures you have both suppliers to help you make your product, and customers to buy it. People who are thinking over the longer term will often make decisions that will cost them in the short run, because they expect to gain in the longer run. Last week, Moneyweb reported that some suppliers to Pick n Pay were actually giving it goods at lower than usual prices. While this costs them in the short run, they don't want a situation where Checkers becomes so dominant they only have one person to sell to. This means that they are helping someone to regain market share. In the case of South Africa, with its incredibly diverse constituencies, and defined by its inequality, the idea of people helping one another might well be more important than in many other places. Winners and losers The nature of our economy requires everyone to be working in the same direction. Instead, what we have is people simply fighting really hard not to be the losers, and others not the winners. Currently, 50 proposals to change the Labour Relations Act are going through Nedlac. While labour analyst Andrew Levy says it's not clear if they really change the balance between workers and managers, several groups and unions have already held a protest against the proposals. They believe that their members might soon lose out, and managers might win. This kind of situation happens all the time in our society. In our politics, the coalition sometimes appears to be reduced to fights between the ANC and the DA that are literally about ensuring one wins and the other loses. Because this is all happening in public, and they are representing constituencies, it can give the impression that those constituencies are really fighting to ensure they are not seen to lose. This transactional approach, and the damage it can cause, is wonderfully, and horrifically, illustrated by the Trump administration's approach to trade. One of the most important dynamics of the past 30 years has been the rise of China as a manufacturer of trade goods. It has made these goods at a cheaper price than many other places, and sold them. This has exported deflation around the world – the price of a cheap bicycle has declined dramatically in real terms since the 1980s. This is largely because companies in different countries have traded with each other. And both parties have become very rich doing so. Trump appears to believe that if one country is getting rich, the other must be losing out. The overwhelming evidence is that this is not the case. Instead, both parties win through these transactions. In some ways, such is the impact of the US, that this example might well be having an impact on our politics. At the same time, another important aspect of how life really works is being lost. In many cases, there is no clear 'winner' and clear 'loser'. Often it is entirely grey, with very little difference in shade. The NHI stand-off In our politics now, it seems that everything must become a life and death situation, that there will be armageddon if someone does not get what they want. Given our inequality, this can sometimes appear as if it is a life-and-death struggle between classes. The NHI might be a useful example: those who support it say the rich are trying to condemn the poor to death, those who oppose it say the rich will lose everything they have. Instead, this is something that should really be negotiated between representatives of constituencies. And there should be a solution that everyone can live with. There are many reasons why we are in this situation. Our racialised inequality must be an important reason. Those who are poor have everything to gain and nothing to lose, while those who are rich have everything to lose and nothing to gain. But this may also be the result of deliberate political strategy. Just as politicians have created abortion as a political issue in the US, by forcing people to take a position, so our leaders often do the same. Both the ANC and the DA benefit from continuing the fight around the NHI. They both get to demonstrate to their constituencies that they are fighting for them. And because the struggle for voters is now so difficult and so intense, the stakes rise each time, and so it is more likely that politicians will behave in this way. All of this feeds an artificial intensity in our politics.

WATCH: Lamb Champs turns up the heat for 2025 with flavour, flair and farm pride
WATCH: Lamb Champs turns up the heat for 2025 with flavour, flair and farm pride South Africa's favourite lamb competition, Lamb Champs, is back for its fourth year and promises to be bigger, bolder and more flavour-packed than ever before. Organised by the Southern African Agri Initiative (Saai) and supported by Pick n Pay and Toyota, the annual event shines a spotlight on family farmers and the high-quality lamb they produce. This year's competition has already attracted 250 entries. Farmers from across the country will compete in four regional rounds, all leading up to the national grand final at the Nampo Grounds in Bothaville on October 17. According to Francois Rossouw, CEO of Saai, the competition is more than just a showcase of premium lamb. 'Lamb Champs is about honouring the real people behind every chop, the farmers who work hard every day to bring quality meat to South African tables,' said Rossouw. Qualifying rounds across the country The 2025 qualifying rounds are taking place on the following dates and locations: July 26 at Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria September 6 at Parys Afridome in the Free State September 24 at Hoër Landbouskool in Paarl in the Boland The first round saw Lize Mans from Kakamas walk away with R40 000 and earn her spot in the grand final. Family farmers who raise lamb anywhere in South Africa are encouraged to enter. Judges score the meat based on taste, tenderness, appearance and overall quality. More than a competition With Toyota behind the wheel, Lamb Champs gives farmers a chance to share their stories, meet consumers and reach new markets. The campaign also celebrates the heritage and sustainability of sheep farming in South Africa. As part of the initiative, Lamb Champs branded lamb cuts sourced directly from participating farmers are now available at selected Pick n Pay stores nationwide. This supports local farmers while giving shoppers access to premium, ethically sourced meat. At Caxton, we employ humans to generate daily fresh news, not AI intervention. Happy reading!
