Frequently Asked Questions

You can do your grocery shopping wherever you are and whenever it suits you, on your computer, smartphone or tablet, using our website or mobile app. There are two convenient ways to shop: Click & Collect and Delivery (available in certain areas).

Simply complete the online shopping registration here and start shopping right away. For a step-by-step guide on how to register and complete your first shop, see here. 

Alternatively, you can download the New World app from the App Store or Google Play, complete the registration and then start shopping.

Not necessarily, however shopping as a Clubcard member is a rewarding experience, both online and in store. You’ll enjoy instant discounts with exclusive Club Deals and get rewarded by collecting Fly Buys points or earning Airpoints Dollars™. Join Clubcard now (if you haven't done so already).

You need to be logged in to change your password; go to ‘Edit my account’ in the main menu and select ‘change password’. If shopping online as a Clubcard member, keep in mind that the same password is used for your New World Clubcard login, so once changed via the New World app or website, it’s also changed for your New World Clubcard login.

To retrieve your password, go to 'Forgotten password' in the login screen, enter your registered email address and we’ll send you the instructions on resetting your password. 

To add a new delivery address, go to the ‘My Addresses’ option from the menu and follow the instructions. The most recent address you’ve added will be automatically selected for delivery. Please note that the products available and their prices may be different depending on the address you select.

Yes, you can have multiple delivery addresses, and you can name them to make them easy to identify. 

You can place, change or cancel your order up to 12 hours prior to your order pick-up/delivery time.

You can order up to 7 days in advance of the day you want to collect your shopping or get your shopping delivered. Occasionally we may release timeslots early which will be displayed within the timeslot selection dropdown.

To cancel an order, go to My Orders, select the order and follow the prompts.

To change an order, go to My Orders, select the current order you’d like to update, hit the ‘EDIT’ button and follow the prompts.
Please note that any updates to your order may result in a change in the total price of your shop. There may be price variations for some of the items in your order, as well as variations of the service fee (if you’ve opted for delivery), based on the final value of your shop and the time the amends are made.

The minimum order value is only $1.

Your order will be picked and fulfilled from the store you’ve chosen.

No, we do not supply trade customers. If we suspect that you are purchasing goods for resale, then we will not be able to fulfil your order.

You can buy most things online however there are some exceptions, such as flowers, gift cards, tobacco, hot food, oversized items and very heavy items.

Alcohol is available online for customers aged 18 years and over (please note that it is illegal to make a false declaration of age in order to purchase alcohol). Furthermore, someone aged 18 years or over needs to pick up or receive the order; a proof of ID will be required.

Go to ‘My Lists’ or ‘My Orders’, select the list/previous order you’re interested in and then select ‘Add to order’. New prices may apply to the products from your previous order.

Select ‘My Lists’ and follow the instructions to create a new list. When using the mobile app, you can also create a list at any time during your shopping by swiping your basket up and then selecting the list icon at the top (‘Add order to list’).

Go to ‘My Lists’, select the list you want to edit and follow the instructions.

Before submitting your order you can let us know your substitution preference. If you accept substitutions, your Personal Shopper will endeavour to select a similar item for you if the original item you have ordered is unavailable. Otherwise, if we can’t supply the product requested, you won’t receive another product in its place.
There are some products we won’t normally substitute, such as alcohol, baby formula, hair dye and vitamins. These products are usually specifically chosen by customers based on personal taste and preference, and therefore aren’t appropriate to substitute.

If a product you have ordered is not available, we will try to substitute it with a similar product of equal or higher quality, but we will only charge you an equal or lower price.

Yes, you can. Just swipe up your basket and use the comment icon (top left) to add an order comment (e.g. ‘no plastic bags, please’). Alternatively, select a specific product and then use the comment icon to add a product related comment (e.g. ‘green banana, please’).

Your trolley will be saved automatically if you are logged in. Items will remain in your trolley until you purchase them. No matter what device you sign in from you’ll be able to see any items you’ve added. Please keep in mind that specials and deals are only available for a certain period of time and will be priced at the date the order is submitted.

Once you've checked out, you'll receive a confirmation email, detailing all the products, quantities and an estimated order value.

We’re saying goodbye to single-use plastic bags. 
Your online order will be packed in paper bags at a cost of 20c each, to a maximum charge of $1. As more than 5 bags are usually needed for online orders, we’ll be including the $1 bag fee upfront. Once we've packed your order we’ll refund the difference if fewer than 5 bags were used.

If you prefer that no bags are used, please state this in the Order Details screen before submitting your order. The store will then endeavour not to use bags and won’t charge a bag fee if other packaging options are available (e.g. cardboard boxes).

Unfortunately, we don’t have the infrastructure to store and clean reusable bags for online shops that eliminate the risk of cross-contamination. We take the health and safety of our customers seriously, that’s why we can’t offer this option.

Paper bags cost significantly more than single use-plastic bags. As a result we need to charge for these bags to cover the cost of the bag itself, warehousing and transportation.

Simply book a timeslot like you normally would, within the "book a timeslot" drop down. Then, press the 'Go to Christmas slots' button, which will then display the available early timeslots for Christmas week.

To secure this timeslot you will need to place an order, which can then be edited between 12-24 hours before your order is due. Make sure you check your confirmation order for the specific edit cut off time.

Please note that if you edit your order, pricing will refresh to the most current pricing. This means you may miss out on any promotional pricing that applied when you first submitted your order.

While we endeavour for prices shown online to match our in-store prices, they may not always be the same.

Any product special advertised on the day the order is placed will be honoured, regardless of the order collection/delivery date.

Yes, you can have more than one credit or debit card linked to your account. Each time you shop you’ll be able to choose which card you want to use. 

You will find most advertised specials available online, including exclusive Club Deals.

The final value of your order may differ from the estimated total. Items in your order are charged at the price applicable at the time you submit your order or any subsequent order amends, except in the following cases:

• When an item is out of stock – you won’t be charged for that item
• If we substitute an item – you'll be charged an equal or lower price than the price of the original item
• Variable weight products – when we pack your order, we weigh the items and charge the price per kilo at the time you ordered for the exact weight supplied

The service fee for Click & Collect is $5, whatever the value of your order.
The service fee for Delivery is $15 for orders up to $199.99, respectively $10 for orders $200 or more.

We can’t accept any of these for online shopping at the moment.

You can pay either by credit or debit card - Visa or Mastercard. (AMEX cards may also be accepted at selected stores.)

A nominal charge of $1 will be taken from your payment card at the time your order is placed and then for each subsequent edit, to ensure your card is valid. These charges will be reversed by your bank within 7 days.

Payment is then finalised when we have picked and packed your order, which in most cases is the day your order is due to be collected or delivered.

If your credit or debit card is declined by your financial institution we will contact you to make alternative payment arrangements. We can only release your order for collection or delivery once it has been paid.

No, we don’t offer this type of payment method.

Yes you do; it will be emailed to you after we pick and pack your order. You will receive a packing list with your order.

Please call our Contact Centre on 0800 463 996.

Yes, you will receive a fuel voucher with your order. This voucher will be printed on your packing slip (which you receive with your order) and on your invoice (which is emailed to you).

The fuel voucher value will be determined on the day your order is placed or edited, not the day that the order is collected (or delivered). It can be used only used once and the expiry date will be printed on the voucher.

Delivery hours may differ between stores. You can book an available delivery timeslot before you place your order. This slot will be held for you for up to 30 minutes, whilst you shop.

Delivery fees are $15 for orders up to $199.99 and $10 for orders $200 or more.

We strongly recommend that you are at home to receive your order. If a delivery can’t be made because you weren’t at home during your scheduled delivery time, we’ll contact you. If instructed, we can leave your order at your door (or agreed location), at which point it becomes your responsibility. If your order contains alcohol items, these cannot be left unattended, and will be returned to the store. In this instance, we will refund the amount to your chosen payment method. Additional fees may apply for re-delivery of those items.

No. It is your responsibility to be at home during the delivery time to receive the order. If your order is left unattended at your request, you are fully responsible for it from that point onwards.

We can only supply alcohol to customers 18 years or older, so if your order includes alcohol you will not be able to access your locker until you show a valid NZ ID to one of our team members. To get a team member to meet you at the lockers, please use the intercom located next to the lockers. Valid forms of ID include an 18+ HANZ Card, a current NZ Driver’s Licence or a current Passport. If you’re unable to show a valid ID which proves you are 18 years or older, any alcohol in your order will be removed and a refund will be issued for those withdrawn products.

To collect your groceries, simply head to the lockers located at the store where you placed your order and enter the code supplied via email.
