Quick answer

Start at the official Ruler Foods membership page, create or sign in to your account, then make sure your Ruler card or Alt ID is connected before checkout.

Clip Ruler Foods digital coupons before you shop, use the same account in store or online, and check weekly ad details before treating a member price as the final deal.

Step-by-step signup

  1. 1

    Open the Ruler Foods membership page

    Start with Ruler Foods's official membership page or app. This keeps your signup tied to the banner where you actually shop in Discount grocery markets.

  2. 2

    Create or sign in to your digital account

    Use the email address and phone number you want connected to receipts, coupons, pickup orders, and rewards. If you already use another Kroger-family site, try signing in before creating a second account.

  3. 3

    Connect your Ruler card or Alt ID

    Make sure your Ruler card or Alt ID is attached to the account. This is the identifier that connects in-store checkout, digital coupons, weekly ad offers, and rewards activity.

  4. 4

    Set your preferred store

    Select the Ruler Foods location you normally use. Weekly ad deals, pickup inventory, coupon eligibility, and final prices can vary by store.

  5. 5

    Clip digital coupons before checkout

    Open Ruler Foods digital coupons and add the offers you want before shopping. The clipped offers need to be on the same account you use at checkout.

  6. 6

    Use the same account at checkout

    In store, scan the app, use the physical card if you have one, or enter the Alt ID tied to your account. Online, stay signed in before building the cart.
