      Important information

      Collecting Tesco Clubcard Points

      Collecting Tesco Clubcard points with your credit card is simple. As long as you've got an eligible card, just use it when you shop, and you'll collect points on almost everything you buy. Your credit card is also your Clubcard, so when you use it to pay in Tesco, you'll collect your extra points as shown below on top of the points you'd normally collect with a Clubcard.

        Clubcard and Clubcard Plus Credit Cards

          • You'll collect one point for every £4 you spend instore or online with Tesco and Tesco Fuel.
          • You'll collect one point for every £8 you spend outside Tesco.

          You'll need to spend at least £4 with Tesco or Tesco Fuel, or at least £8 outside of Tesco, in a single transaction to collect points on that purchase.

            Premium Credit Card

              • You'll collect one point for every £1 you spend instore or online with Tesco and Tesco Fuel.
              • You'll collect one point for every £4 you spend outside Tesco.

              You'll need to spend at least £1 with Tesco or Tesco Fuel, or at least £4 outside of Tesco, in a single transaction to collect points on that purchase.

                World, Classic and Platinum Credit Cards

                  • You'll collect one point for every £2 you spend instore or online with Tesco and Tesco Fuel
                  • You'll collect one point for every £8 you spend outside Tesco

                  You'll need to spend at least £2 with Tesco or Tesco Fuel, or at least £8 outside of Tesco, in a single transaction to collect points on that purchase.

                    Bonus Credit Cards

                      • You won't collect any extra Clubcard points for using your credit card. However, your credit card is also your Clubcard, so when you use it to pay in Tesco, you'll still collect the points you'd normally collect with a Clubcard.

                      A few more things to remember

                      There are some products at Tesco you can't collect points on. Clubcard points also can't be collected on Tesco Travel Money purchases.

                        Premium, Platinum, World, Classic and Bonus credit cards are unavailable to new customers.

                        You must have available credit to collect points. Clubcard points collection rates are subject to change. The Clubcard scheme is administered by Tesco Stores, Tesco House, Shire Park, Kestrel Way, Welwyn Garden City, AL7 1GA, who are responsible for fulfilling points.

                          Get more from your Clubcard vouchers

                          Every 3 months your points are turned into Clubcard vouchers. These can be used to save on your shopping in Tesco and across a wide range of Clubcard Reward Partners for eating out, family fun days or hotel breaks and travel.

                            Top Credit Card FAQs

                                But if there’s a problem with something you’ve bought, and you can’t sort it out with the retailer, we may be able to get your money back for you. This is because you have extra protection when you pay with Visa or MasterCard called a chargeback.

                                There are a lot of different reasons you may be able to make a chargeback. For example, if you bought something online that was broken, or you couldn’t return it, or if you paid for a holiday that was cancelled.

                                Make sure you’ve tried to sort the problem out with the retailer first. They can also challenge your claim which, if it’s valid, might mean we have to re-debit your account.

                                Have anything related to your purchase on hand while you fill out the form like receipts, a copy of the retailer’s terms and conditions and any emails or letters you’ve written or received.

                                There are some rules around asking for a chargeback. Check out these details:

                                • Usually, you’ll need to ask for a chargeback within 120 days of the transactionUsually, you’ll need to ask for a chargeback within 120 days of the transaction

You'll not be eligible for a credit limit increase if:

                                    Please carefully consider any increase to your credit limit as it may increase the risk of taking on too much debt, which may be costly or take a long time to pay off.

                                    Decreasing your credit limit can be done easily and at any time by logging into Online Banking or our Mobile Banking App and following the same steps as mentioned earlier. The minimum that you'll be able to decrease your limit to is £100, or 105% of your current balance.
