Digital purchase: How the Jö app saves evidence and protects the environment

In Wiener Neustadt, an exciting step towards digitization and environmental protection has attracted attention. Austria's trade and catering market recorded around seven million transactions every day. As a result, about 1,500 kilometers of paper for invoices are printed for purchases alone - and a considerable part of it ends up in the trash. In order to counteract this waste, a new option has now been introduced for customers.

REWE introduced a digital invoice system for JÖ members in his sales rails, which include Billa, Billa Plus, Bipa, Penny and the ADEG markets participating in the JÖ bonus program. Customers who choose this option can do without the issuing of a conventional paper bill when shopping and instead receive a digital invoice.

legal foundations and simple activation

The registration ceremony and occupancy obligation that came into force in Austria in 2016 requires that every proof must be available to the customer. However, the new regulation also allows the electronic creation of the document. By using customer cards or apps, the document can be automatically delivered directly to the buyer profile.

In order to be able to use the digital purchasing bill, interested parties only have to agree to the terms of use in the Jö app and activate the function once. A change back to paper bill is possible at any time, which offers users flexibility.

advantages of digital bill

Nikolai Scheurecker, Managing Director of the Jö Bonus Club, emphasizes the advantages of this innovation: "The digital invoice beats several flies with one stone: On the one hand, we underline our comprehensive steps towards digitization and avoid large amounts of garbage in the sense of the environment. On the other hand, it is a pleasant service for the JÖ members, at any time in the Jö app of any invoices and purchases at a glance have. ”

This innovative system could not only reduce environmental pollution, but also make purchasing more comfortable for customers. The possibility of digitally managing all bills in one place is another piece of customer -friendly service, especially today.
