Mobile app capabilities
With Storefront Pro, mobile apps have the following additional capabilities over the web app and the Storefront mobile apps and web app.
Digital loyalty card
You can display a digital loyalty card in the mobile app. This is a great way to encourage your customers to scan their loyalty card when shopping.
Search by a scanned barcode
Customers can search for products by scanning a barcode with the camera on their device.
Conversion prompts
When customers visit your storefront on mobile web, they see a prompt encouraging them to download your mobile app. A second prompt appears after checkout. The prompts inherit your theme settings colors from Storefront Branding settings in Instacart Platform Portal.
Deep linking doesn't work in this environment. If a customer enters the web app from a referral link you sent and then downloads and opens the mobile app, the app opens on the homepage instead of your promotion page.
Marketing push notifications
You can send marketing push notifications to your customers through the mobile app. This is a great way to promote new products, special offers, and other marketing messages to your customers.
