About this app
Discounted fashion from Nordstrom's off-price arm is what the Nordstrom Rack app sells: clothing, shoes, accessories, beauty and home goods at up to 70 percent off, for the whole family. It's a shopping app first and foremost, for people who already browse the Rack and want first notice of markdowns. Alerts cover sales, new markdowns, new arrivals, brand drops and events. Flash events launch daily with limited-time prices, a wish list saves items and can be shared with family or friends, and joining The Nordy Club, which is free, adds member discounts. Nordstrom credit cardmembers get 5 percent off every Rack purchase and can pay in store by showing a QR code in the app. Nordstrom Rack has belonged to the wider Nordstrom business since 1973, and the app covers its stores and online range alike.
Nordstrom Rack: Shop Deals: the full guide
What the app is
Discount fashion from Nordstrom's off-price division, delivered as an app whose main job is telling you when prices drop. Clothes, shoes, beauty, accessories and homewares are advertised at up to 70 percent off, and the alerts cover sales, fresh markdowns, arrivals, brand drops and events.
Each day brings a flash event with limited-time prices, and a shareable wish list lets a family coordinate. Joining The Nordy Club is free and brings member discounts; Nordstrom credit cardholders take a further 5 percent off at the Rack and pay in store with an in-app QR code. The Rack has been part of Nordstrom since 1973.
How it works day to day
On a quiet day it is a notification or two about a markdown on something you have wished for, and a glance at the daily flash event. On a shopping day it becomes a browsing tool: filtering by brand and size, saving to the wish list, sharing a few options with a partner for a second opinion.
In a physical Rack store, cardholders bring up the QR code at the till rather than reaching for a card. Over a season, the alerts do the waiting for you, pinging when the item you passed on at full markdown drops further.
Why people look for it
Rack shoppers search for it because markdowns move fast and the app is the earliest warning. The 4.9 rating from 100K+ reviewers is unusually high for retail, which suggests the alerts and the checkout actually work. Nordstrom cardholders have the extra 5 percent and the in-store QR payment as reasons.
Look and feel
Retail apps are product grids and photography, and the five screenshots will show category browsing, product pages, the wish list and probably the flash event screen. Nordstrom's design language is restrained, with white backgrounds and large product imagery, so expect something closer to a department store than a bargain bin, despite the discounts.
Updates and upkeep
Version 12.12 reads as a mature app with regular revisions. Nordstrom, Inc. is a large retailer with a dedicated digital team, and the exceptionally high rating across a six-figure review count is a strong vote of confidence. Only an App Store link is given on this page.
