Overview

• The Verbraucherzentrale Baden-Württemberg has filed a lawsuit against Rewe in the Cologne Regional Court over its app's promotional practices.
• The consumer group claims that the Rewe app displays potential bonus savings without providing the prices of the required products, such as grapes and sparkling wine.
• Customers are reportedly unable to make informed purchasing decisions without visiting Rewe stores to learn the product prices.
• Rewe has declined to comment on the ongoing legal proceedings but has been urged to stop advertising in this manner.
• Similar complaints were previously raised against Lidl and Penny for app-exclusive pricing practices that allegedly violate price transparency regulations.
