First Netflix, now Costco: It's getting harder to cheat using someone else's membership.
The bulk retailer intends to ask customers to show photo identification in addition to a Costco COST, +1.32% membership card when going through the self-checkout process. The Dallas Morning News first reported on the development last week.
“We don’t feel it’s right that non-members receive the same benefits and pricing as our members,” a Costco spokesperson said. Costco offers Gold Star and Business memberships for $60 each annually, as well as an Executive membership that costs $120. That higher tier of membership gives consumers a 2% reward on qualifying purchases from the company, among other benefits.
