Checkers Sixty60 adding 10,000 ‘large items’ – with free same-day delivery
Checkers has announced that it will be beta testing a new and improved version of its Sixty60 app, which will expand its item listing to over 10,000 larger Hyper products.
These products will be listed with same-day delivery scheduled within a 60-minute time slot.
Delivery is free during beta testing and will remain free for Xtra Savings Plus subscribers, it said.
“With a new fleet of eye-catching Hyper delivery vans, Checkers Sixty60’s product offering now extends beyond groceries to include larger items, ranging from camping and outdoor gear to small appliances, baby products, toys, kitchen and home electronics, gardening and pool equipment – all at supermarket prices,” the group said.
“We’re confident that the next iteration of Sixty60 will again disrupt online retail in South Africa. Our precision delivery promise means no more waiting at home all day for your general merchandise order to arrive.
“Customers can now choose the 60-minute time slot in which they’d like their Hyper delivery to arrive, with the same to-the-minute driver tracking they’ve become accustomed to on their grocery orders,” said Neil Schreuder, Chief of Strategy and Innovation for the Shoprite Group.
The new Sixty60 app is currently available to customers who live in the following areas in Cape Town:
- Bellville

As with the launch of Checkers Sixty60 in 2019, the national rollout will follow a phased approach after Beta testing, it said.
