How to Unlock the Nook Shopping App

Buy 100 Items through Nook Shopping

To get the Nook Shopping app on your NookPhone, you need to have ordered 100 items through Nook Shopping at the Nook Stop.

Once you have made your 100th order, a message will appear congratulating you, and rewarding you with your new app!

How to Get the Nook Shopping App

Only 5 items can be ordered per day

You can only order up to 5 items each day. This means that it'll take at least 20 in-game days to make 100 purchases, so be sure to buy 5 items every day.

We recommend getting K.K. Slider songs, or items you don't have yet!

If you can't wait 20 real days to order 100 items, you can always time travel to 20 different in-game days in one real day. Check our guide below to find out how!
Time Traveling Guide

Track your total number of purchases using your Nook Miles+ app

You can keep track of the number of items you've bought from Nook Shopping using your Nook Miles+ app.

Open the app and select the Shop to It challenge. Your progress at the bottom will show how many items you've ordered.

What Should You Spend Nook Miles on First?

Nook Shopping

With Nook Shopping, you can buy Special Goods (including resident posters and seasonal items), Furniture, Clothing, Wallpaper, Flooring, Rugs, and Music!

You can only purchase a maximum of 5 items per day, and the items will be delivered to your mailbox at the next day.

Order using the Nook Shopping app

After you've ordered a total of 100 items at Nook Shopping, via Nook Stop, you will automatically receive the Nook Shopping app in your phone.

With the app, you can order Nook Shopping items without having to use the Nook Stop terminal at Resident Services.

How to Get the Nook Shopping App

ABD (ATM)

The Nook Stop is equipped with an ATM where you can save up and withdraw your bells. Put away the bells you don't need into your bank to earn interest over time!

How to Get Bank Interest

Invite amiibo Camper

The Nook Stop can also be used to read amiibos and amiibo cards to call villagers to your island.

If you become friendly with these visitors, you may just be able to persuade them to stay on your island. For more information about amiibos, check out the link below!

List of amiibos and Compatibility

Unlock Campsite to use amiibos

Before you can use amiibos, you need a place where the villagers can stay while they visit.

In other words, you need to unlock and build the Campsite before you can use amiibos. Tom Nook will explain the feature once it unlocks.

See our guide on the Campsite and amiibos here:

How to Make the Campsite and How to Use amiibos
