Aldi Süd launches 'Cheap Without Bonus-App' campaign

Aldi Süd has launched a nationwide marketing campaign titled "Einfach Einkaufen" with the slogan "Günstig ohne Bonus-App", positioning itself against supermarket bonus/discount apps. The creative work was developed by lead agency Antoni99, with media planning and buying handled by Zenith (Publicis Media). The campaign includes eight TV and online films, radio spots, outdoor and digital OOH, social media, display ads, handbills and point-of-sale materials and will run across July and August. Aldi Süd says it offers low prices for everyone and considers app-only discounts and the added complexity they create unnecessary. The article also notes consumer-protection analyses (vzbv) that estimate real savings from such apps at roughly 0.75–2.29% and ongoing—but so far partially unsuccessful—legal scrutiny of app-based extra discounts.

Aldi Suisse Reuses 2021 Creative for Price Campaign

Aldi Suisse launched a new image campaign centered on the claim “Wie macht Aldi das nur?” featuring people in a pondering pose to highlight the discounter’s strategy: permanent low prices, an affordable organic range, and more than 700 price reductions since the start of the year. Each motif is accompanied by a three-point promise: no app, no points, no fuss. The article notes the claim and visual motifs were first developed in 2021 by Zurich agency Inhalt und Form for an employer campaign; that earlier use — which showed people in competitor uniforms — drew critical reactions. Aldi Suisse’s media office states the current campaign is an in-house creation. Published by persoenlich.com on 2026-06-25.
