Tesco Clubcard basics

Flash your free Clubcard in Tesco or add it to your online grocery account and you bag one point per one pound spent. You can also nab points in other ways, via partners such as Esso, and even without spending a penny – see ways to earn Clubcard points. Once you've amassed enough points, they'll be turned into vouchers.
How much are Clubcard vouchers worth?
What they're worth depends on what you want to use them for. Each point is worth 1p to spend in Tesco, so 500 points equal a £5 voucher to spend in store, but you can trade vouchers for up to 3x that value (ie, £5 becomes £15) in Reward Partner vouchers. It used to be up to 4x the value, but this dropped in 2018. Decent deals do still exist – see our top picks below.
How do I access my vouchers?
Once you've earned over 150 points, there are two ways to collect your vouchers:
1. You can simply wait for your statement which comes every three months
When you earn over 150 points in that three-month period, Tesco will send them as Clubcard vouchers in February, May, August and November to use in store or online.
2. To save you waiting every three months you can use the Faster Vouchers* scheme instead to get them in 24 hours
How can I get a Clubcard?
It's free to sign up to Clubcard (though there's an optional paid-for membership, with a few extra perks – see below). You can join online* and print off a temporary card to scan in stores, or download the app (available on Android and iOS), which lets you sign up and scan a digital version.
Is Clubcard Plus any good?
Tesco's Clubcard Plus subscription service costs £7.99/month and gives perks such as 10% off two shops every month. You can also get 10% off F&F and other non-grocery Tesco brands, plus double data if you have a pay-monthly Tesco Mobile contract.
It's generally only worth signing up if you spend over £80 in store each month. You can currently get a free trial for one month – but you'll need to make a note in your calendar to cancel if you don't want to continue with the subscription.
We've full details below, plus how to work out if it's worth it for you.
How to join Clubcard Plus
You can subscribe to the Clubcard Plus scheme online*, or via the Clubcard app (for Android and iOS). You'll need to be signed up as a basic (free) Clubcard member already. If you're not already a Clubcard member, you can sign up online*.
Clubcard Plus costs £7.99 a month (£95.88 a year), is a rolling one-month contract and there's no minimum subscription.
Changed your mind? How to cancel Clubcard Plus
Tesco says you don't need to give notice if you want to cancel your subscription. You can do this at any point, within the app.

Reclaim lost Tesco vouchers
Many people lose or forget to use their Tesco vouchers, but there's an easy way to claw back the last two years of unused vouchers (or 21 months if you use Faster Vouchers). Some report successes from even further back.
Here's how to check if you have any forgotten vouchers, plus a trick to extend 'em:
- Log in online. Go to the Tesco Clubcard* site (you'll need to be registered for a Tesco.com account). You'll need your email address, password and Clubcard number to access your account.
- Check for unspent vouchers. In your Clubcard account, click on 'my Clubcard account' and then 'vouchers' on the left-hand side and you should see a table listing the vouchers you still have to spend.
- Instantly print vouchers or use the codes online. If you want to spend vouchers online, you simply need to use the code listed, eg, beginning "A6TCD". To spend in store, print vouchers yourself to use instantly.
Just based on those who have reported it to us, MoneySavers have found over £30,000 in lost Tesco vouchers! That's worth up to £90,000 when converted into Clubcard Rewards vouchers – and the real total's likely to be much more...
Here are some MoneySavers who have shown it's worth the effort:
One call netted me £276 in unused vouchers! Thanks MSE!
Thanks to your article, we found that we had nearly £150 of unclaimed Tesco vouchers! We have already doubled the vouchers' value online, which has been incredibly useful for Christmas.
Thanks for the tip on checking unused vouchers – just found over £50 worth not used – don't know how that happened but am happy to spend them now!
Report how much you've found: How many Tesco vouchers have you reclaimed?


Clubcard vouchers are valid for two years, but there's a crafty way you can extend their expiry date for another two years – perfect if you're saving up for something big. Here's how it works:
- Make a small purchase on the Tesco Clubcard* site (not in store or on other Tesco websites) and the remaining balance is credited back to your Clubcard account as points.
- They'll then be reissued as new vouchers (with an expiry date up to two years in the future) when you next get a batch. So if you spend 50p on a £10 voucher, you'll get £9.50 as new vouchers.
- There's no min spend, but the aim's to shell out as little as possible. A good option might be a 50p restaurant voucher* (worth £1.50 at your chosen restaurant).
Bear in mind you'll need to do this for each individual voucher though, so weigh up if it's actually worth it for smaller denominations. For example, if you've a £10 voucher it's probably worth it – if you've got a handful of £1 vouchers, maybe less so.
How to add to your points haul
There are lots of ways to nab extra points – some involve making everyday purchases, while with others you don't need to spend a penny.
Earn Clubcard points without spending
There are ways to add to your points stash without handing over cash. Always check the full terms and conditions though as most of these include giving your consent for Tesco to contact you about future promotions and offers.

- Complete surveys. Register to join Shopper Thoughts and if you qualify for the scheme you can collect points every time you complete the surveys you're emailed. They take between five and 20 minutes and the number of points varies by survey (you'll usually get 100 points for a 15-minute one). There are also prize draws to enter.
- Tell 'em about your shop. Collect 25 Clubcard points when you tell Tesco about your most recent visit. You need to keep hold of your receipt and use a code on there to take part at Tesco Views. The number of points you can collect is capped at 25 a month. Plus there's a £1,000 gift card monthly prize draw.
Earn Clubcard points with everyday spending
You accumulate Tesco Clubcard points* at a rate of one per £1 spent in store, but you can earn them in other ways too when spending either via partners or Tesco's other businesses.

As we explain above, you can simply convert points to Tesco vouchers to use at the store – for example, 500 points are usually worth £5. But spend them the right way and those 500 points could be worth £15. This is about exchanging Clubcard vouchers for codes to spend with Clubcard Reward Partners* on jewellery, travel, food, days out and more.
It's worth noting that while Clubcard points are valid for two years, when you swap them for rewards they usually expire after six months (unless otherwise stated).
Top picks to use your points on
We've crunched the numbers and below is our list of top rewards. You should always check Clubcard vouchers give you the best deal possible before committing.

Every £6 in Clubcard vouchers gets you a three-month subscription to Disney+* (normally £7.99/month, so you're getting over three times the value).
You'll get a code that's valid until 10 August 2023. So if you already have a subscription, you can wait till it expires then use the code.
Reason it's a top pick: A decent discount on a popular streaming service. It can be used by both new and existing Disney+ monthly subscribers (though remember to cancel if you don't want to keep it after three months).
Days out including Alton Towers and Longleat Safari – 3x value, good if no better deals on offer

You can get £1.50 to spend on days out for 50p of Clubcard vouchers at 100+ attractions*.
Reason it's a top pick: It's a good way to cut the cost of family days out, but check for other Cheap days out offers before converting, as Clubcard vouchers can't be stacked.
Restaurant vouchers (dine-in only), including Pizza Express, Prezzo – 3x value, a fab deal if 2for1s aren't available

Every 50p gives £1.50 to spend when dining at restaurants*, including Bella Italia, Cafe Rouge, Pizza Express, Prezzo and Zizzi.
Reason it's a top pick: There's a range of restaurants to choose from, and at 3x value it's a good swap to boost a family meal out – but only if no other decent deals are available for that restaurant as Clubcard vouchers can't be used on top.

£1 in Clubcard vouchers becomes £3 to spend on an annual railcard*.
Reason it's a top pick: Railcards get you a third off most rail travel in the UK, and this is a decent discount on the upfront cost.

Every £5 Clubcard voucher gets you £15 to spend in Goldsmiths stores* or online with Denby* – so for example, a £600 ring would cost £200 in Tesco vouchers.
Reason it's a top pick: If you want something specific, this is practically a cash discount. Particularly for those looking for engagement rings, this can seriously boost spending power.

£5 in Clubcard vouchers gets £15 in Hotels.com* vouchers.
Reason it's a top pick: This is a good way to cut down the cost of travelling, providing you can't find a cheaper deal elsewhere (see our Cheap hotels guide).

50p in Clubcard vouchers gets £1.50 to spend on magazines*. There are over 70 titles on offer, including Elle, Gardeners' World, Grazia, Empire and Good Housekeeping.
Reason it's a top pick: This is always popular with Forumites and a safe bet if you'll read the magazines.
3x value on cinema tickets – well worth it in pricey areas such as London

Swap 50p in vouchers for £1.50 towards a Cineworld* or Picturehouse* cinema ticket.
Reason it's a top pick: Cinema tickets have become increasingly expensive in recent years (typically £10+ depending on where you are), so this is a strong deal – and if you're a regular at the flicks, the savings can soon add up.
The pricing we've mentioned for Clubcard Reward Partners is based on companies' list prices. See Tesco's full list of Reward Partners*.
