Reception to the service was mixed; some were neutral to the concept, while cashiers at its participating stores found the in-store televisions broadcasting its programming to be distracting. After believing that it would be too difficult to make the service profitable, Turner discontinued CNN Checkout Channel in March 1993, and took a write-down of $16 million.

CNN cerró la red a finales de 1993.​​ La red inició la utilización de los televisores de Philips en la caja registradora de cada pasillo. CNN luego instaló altavoces activados con sensores de movimiento por separado en la cabecera de los pasillos, en un esfuerzo para reducir el ruido general en la tienda, sobre todo en los pasillos que estaban cerrados, y para superar los comentarios de los asistentes de la caja registradora que se distraían con el audio procedente de la televisión. El canal fue administrado por una división de Turner Broadcasting System, ahora una división de la compañía Time Warner. La red había sido fundada por Jon Petrovich​ y Scott Weiss.
