2 Wakefern Banners Add Online Checkout Feature

Wakefern Food Corp is adding to its payment options with a digital wallet called Paze. Customers at all ShopRite and The Fresh Grocer locations can use the online checkout solution that is integrated into the Aurus payment platform. 

Shoppers’ eligible debit and credit cards from participating banks and credit unions can be added to a digital wallet with no third-party app, username or password for download. From a security perspective, transactions are tokenized and actual card numbers are not shared with retailers.
