Purchases credit cards

Spread the cost of things you buy over a period of time at a low or 0% interest rate.

    What is a purchases credit card?

      Purchases cards are designed for spreading the cost of the things you buy. Some cards offer a 0% interest rate at the start for a set period of time. To make the most of this type of card you should try to pay off your balance before any 0% interest period ends.

                Collect Tesco Clubcard points

                1
                Clubcard points when you spend £4 in Tesco
                1
                Clubcard points when you spend £4 on Tesco fuel (excluding Esso)
                1
                Clubcard point when you spend £8 outside Tesco

                Your Credit Card is also your Clubcard, so when you spend on it you'll collect your usual Clubcard points and some extra ones on top.

                Using our Credit Card, for every £4 spent in Tesco you’ll collect 5 Clubcard points. That’s 1 Clubcard point for every £4 you spend, plus your normal Clubcard points (1 Clubcard point for every £1 spent) in each purchase transaction. Plus you’ll also collect 1 Clubcard point for every £8 spent outside Tesco in each purchase transaction.

                With a Tesco Bank Credit Card, spending £4 filling up at Tesco (excluding Esso fuel) gets you 5 Clubcard points – 1 Clubcard point for every £4 you spend, plus your normal Clubcard points at an enhanced rate of 1 Clubcard point per £1 spent (usually 1 Clubcard point for each £2 spent) in each purchase transaction .

                Clubcard points collection rates are subject to change and you must have available credit. Exclusions on collecting Clubcard points apply, expand below to read more.

                  Turning Clubcard points into vouchers, exclusions and how the calculator works

                  Clubcard vouchers

                  Every 3 months your Clubcard points are turned into Clubcard vouchers. Or you can choose to get them quicker with Faster Vouchers. Use your Clubcard vouchers for money off your Tesco shop, or get up to 3x the value with Clubcard Reward Partners - choose from days out, travel, restaurants and more.

                    What you won’t collect points on

                    You’ll only collect Clubcard points when you use your card to make purchases. Cash withdrawals, cash transactions, balance or money transfers, gambling transactions, buying travel money and regular payments like standing orders 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.

                      How the calculator works

                      The calculator uses how many Clubcard points you could collect if you had a Tesco Bank Credit Card and used it to pay for items in and out of Tesco.

                      Based on the Clubcard points you say you typically collect in each month, we can then give you an idea of the Clubcard vouchers you could receive. The actual number will depend on how you use your credit card. Don't forget that you’ll need to spend a minimum amount to begin collecting Clubcard points. And please also bear in mind that this is just an indication.

                      The Tesco Clubcard Scheme is administered by Tesco Stores Limited, Tesco House, Shire Park, Kestrel Way, Welwyn Garden City, AL7 1GA who are responsible for fulfilling Clubcard points.
