Is Pick n Pay asap! down right now?
Start with the live Pick n Pay asap! status graph above, which is built from Pick n Pay asap! down reports sent in by shoppers. A sharp spike tells you the app itself is struggling, not just your phone. A flat line points the other way, at your connection, your store or your account.
Try one small step first, like opening your basket. If pages spin and nothing loads, close the app fully and open it again. Still stuck, test the Pick n Pay website in your browser.
Is Pick n Pay asap! down for me or everyone?
Ask a friend to open the app while you watch the reports here. If their shop loads and yours hangs, the fault sits with your phone, your data or your chosen store. If reports climb from many areas at once, you face a shared fault, and waiting wins.
Linking your Smart Shopper card to earn and spend points
Your Smart Shopper card links in your profile, and the number on the back of the card is all you need. Once linked, every order earns points without scanning anything at a till. The balance shows on your home screen.
Points are not just for collecting. At checkout you can pay part of your basket with points, and Smart Shopper Price deals apply on their own. Partner offers feed extra points into the same balance. Pickaboo shoppers face a sterner checkout race, since a campaign gadget can sell its last unit between the product page and payment.
Following your order from the shelf to your door
After you pay, the tracking screen walks your order through each step, from picking to the driver leaving the store. Push alerts mark every change, so keep notifications on. Your digital receipt lands in your inbox and in your order history when the bags arrive.
Handling swaps when a shelf item runs out
Pickers work from live shelf stock, and a gap on the shelf means a swap or a dropped item. You set how the picker treats missing goods, so set them before you pay. During a wide Pick n Pay asap! outage the picking screens freeze, and orders pause until the app recovers.
Topping up airtime and data without leaving the app
Under the prepaid shelf you can buy airtime and data for the big networks in a few taps. The top-up goes to your own number or to a number you type in. A failed top-up shows in your order history with its state.
Common Pick n Pay asap! Problems and Fixes
Most asap! hiccups clear with a restart, a fresh sign-in or an app update. Match the fault below to your screen first.
App freezes on the splash screen
A stuck splash screen after an update clears for most people with a full restart of the phone. If it still hangs, delete the app and install it fresh, then sign in again.
Smart Shopper points missing after delivery
Points can take a short while to land after the driver closes the order. Pull down on the home screen to refresh the balance. If the number in your profile differs from your card, unlink it and link the right one.
Tracking stuck on the picking step
A frozen step often means the store is working a long queue, not that your order is lost. Give it a few minutes, then refresh the tracking screen. Closing and reopening the app pulls the newest step through.
Card declined at checkout
Check the card allows online shopping and holds enough funds for the basket plus delivery. Remove the saved card and add it again if the bank keeps refusing it.
Order arrived with the wrong items
Compare the bags against the digital receipt in your order history. Report the wrong or missing items from that order screen, so the store team sees the exact order.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I link my Smart Shopper card to the app?
Open your profile, choose the Smart Shopper area, and type the number from the back of your card. The link takes effect at once, and your points balance appears on the home screen.
How long does an asap! delivery take?
Orders aim to arrive in about an hour from your nearest store. Busy times can stretch that, and the tracking screen shows where your order stands.

Yes. At checkout you can pay part of the basket with your points balance. The rest goes on your card, and the split shows before you confirm.
What happens when an item on my list is out of stock?
Your picker follows the swap choice set on the order. Approve a swap, take the closest match, or have the item dropped and refunded.
Does Pick n Pay asap! sell airtime and data?
Yes. The prepaid area sells airtime and data for the main networks, sent to your number or one you enter. The buy shows in your order history.
Where do I find the receipt for an order?
Every order sends a digital receipt to your email inbox. You can also open the order in your history and read the same receipt there.
