Temporary Shopping Authorization

In exceptional cases, it is possible to entrust a third person, who does not have to belong to your company, with your purchase. For this we need the following documents from you: your customer card and the printed one-time purchasing authorization signed by you, presented when your trustee make a purchase, and a proof of identity of the authorized trustee (driving license or identity card).

Digital

The temporary shopping allowance is accessible via the METRO app. You need to be logged in and use the function “Temporary shopping allowance”. Just enter the name and an e-mail address to send the permission. The trusted person will get an e.mail message with an authorization code. The trustee needs to install the app and enter the code in the app for a n-time (once or more) permission to shop/for x days.
