Looking for product information in an Edgars Store has never been easier. Simply type in the barcode or use our built in scanning system which leverages your camera to automatically scan and decipher the barcode. We will find the product, what the latest price is, how many items are available in your favourite or nearby stores with the corresponding stock levels.
**Order Products
You can rapidly order any product you have scanned and deliver it directly to your favourite store. Login with your Edgars account details, pick your favourite store, choose the products you wish to order and you’re done. Those products will be delivered to your favourite store to pick up at your earliest convenience.
**Find Variants
To alleviate the frustrations of not being able to get your hands on an out of stock item Edgars SmartApp Variants enable you to find any alternative size for any scanned product. Say the stunning jeans you want are too small and the size that will fit is out of stock. This would be a major problem before but now just scan smaller jeans and with variants you will have an option to select the alternative size you want. Once selected you will be displayed product information, stock availability at nearby stores, with the option to order it to your favourite store to pick up later.

What's the use of this app if your balance is never reflected correctly and never updated? Worst app ever.

Its stupid enough that the company does not send me any statements every month so i tought having the app would make life so much easy, but nooooo! It is showing the wrong info, i have to go store to just find out how much I need to pay. Waste of time

The app is never correct with my balance and also stops working so I cannot check anything on the app. Edgars just remove the app from the app store if you are not going to improve on it.

After so called registration am told no "account validated online".. Surprisingly u cant even validate your account on the app after registration???? So whats point of" registration" if u cant complete whole process on the app itself.. Worse l went to feedback section of the app and wasnt surprised that l couldn't even send feedback despite filling all the required fields.. My rating is 0...

Like really. Have an account but everything comes up as R0. How's that going to help. Does anyone even check the feedback being sent? If I send feedback via the app, there's no way I know if it's sent cos the page doesn't send out an acknowledgement. Really, the IT guys that created this app, are crap. Edgars requires a full refund of whatever payment was made to them for creating this app. Disappointing

Balances reflects R0. No use for this app...to be frank I have no use for an Edgars account anymore as well. I agree what a previous user reflected...please copy the TFG app. A waste of data and time! Immediate uninstall.

Thank you points on the app reflect as zero when there is a balance. The installment and differs to the actual. The Submit Feedback button on the app does not work.

Just copy what TFG has. Most important for me is to check statement, make payments and check how much is due for next month. Thats it! No need to find out where shops are located, I know theres edcon family of shops in every next mall around. No need for online shopping before u can manage the basix. On the next atempt try improving graphics and look and feel. Current look is extremely boring. Remove it from market.

I can view my statements online. The app keeps giving me an error that email or password are incorrect which they not! Removing it off my phone immediately.

I can not even register! And who has login in Settings! Worst app ever. I can't even use their website cause it requires an id number which I do not have. The app is worse. Usability =0 accessed the app again. At least I can register. Woo. But website and mobile app are not synchronised! Imagine that. Still useless

Why even bother with an app when your website is so terrible. It's in such a state, even Jet store's website is better. We wanna buy online, why can't south African retailers just catch up? Its darn frustrating.

Dont waste data on downloading it. Thought it would be as effective as Woolies and TGF apps. But no. It doesnt even pick up my account and often telling my my correct password is incorrect. Does not work at all. Nothing of it works.

Waste of download time. Register. OK. Login. Successful. Account not validated. No meaningful details of error message. And no way to validate or update account number. In a world where people create innovation by harnessing technology. All you've done is bought the technology. Without the innovation, design and quality assurance. Epic fail. Keep trying while your competitors are MILES ahead.

I've reported my log in error more than a month ago and still not resolved. It is currently with the programmer to see why!? If Edcon would start reading the complaints and update the app (November 2013 last) the maybe we could actually enjoy the amazing features!

What a useless piece of software. First, at login it asks for email address and password. I know my details are right, and it can't log me in! Then, I go to the website and login using my username--not my email address. So, I decide to enter my username as email address to login to the app, and voila!, it works! This app really does nothing apart from providing tel numbers of stores. Quite pathetic! I am going to uninstall it now!

Zero star it does not give any details of the account. Only the amounts of points, no balance, no installment.... You might as well remove it.

Has potential to be great app, to aid both the company and the customer. But after waiting a few months, I redownloaded it, still no info, no credit, no points. Same bugs. Perhaps app should be looked at again.
