Systems and methods are provided for facilitating group shopping using a shared shopping list. A group such as a family having a shared shopping list may check in at a merchant location. The shared shopping list may be stored by a service provider or a payment provider. As the members of the group move around within the merchant location, one or more wireless beacons at the merchant location may communicate with user devices of the group members to track the locations of the group members. When a group member approaches or is close to an item on the shared shopping list, the user may be provided with an alert that they are nearby or approaching the location of the item. In some embodiments, directions to a list item or a related item such as a replacement item for an unavailable list item may be provided in the alert.
