Costco is taking a more aggressive enforcement stance after noting that more non-member shoppers have been using membership cards that do not belong to them.
“We don’t feel it’s right that nonmembers receive the same benefits and pricing as our members,” Costco said in an emailed statement. “As we already ask for the membership card at checkout, we are now asking to see their membership card with their photo at our self-service checkout registers.”
As of May, Costco had 124.7 million cardholders from 69.1 million households, according to the company’s website.
