What you won't collect Clubcard points on

You'll only collect Clubcard points when you use your card to make purchases. Cash withdrawals, cash transactions, balance on money transfers, gambling transactions, buying travel money and regular payments like standing order and Direct Debits don't count. There are also some products at Tesco you can't collect points on, find out more at the Tesco Clubcard Website.

APR stands for Annual Percentage Rate. It shows you how much your borrowing will cost over the period of an average year, over the term of your debt. It also helps you compare different cards on the market. After a 0% period, the amount of interest you'll need to pay on any outstanding balances will be determined by the APR. Don't forget that the length of 0% period on your purchases and balance transfers might be different.
