Clubcard - what's it all about?
Applying for a Clubcard

- How do I register my temporary card?
- You can register a temporary Clubcard online or call the Clubcard Helpline on 0800 59 16 88.
- How long will it take to receive my permanent Clubcard?
- Your permanent Clubcard should be with you within 10 days. If you applied more than two weeks ago and you're concerned at all about the whereabouts of your card, then give our Helpline a call on 0800 59 16 88.
- What will I get when I join?
- When you join you will receive a welcome pack containing your permanent Clubcard and two key fobs.

- The only places you can't use your temporary card are at Pay@pump and the café. You can, however, print out a temporary card and use it everywhere.
- Why do I need to register my personal details?
- If you don't tell us who you are or where you live, we won't be able to send you your Clubcard statement and any vouchers you have earned. If you have an unregistered card, you can provide us with your details by registering your unregistered card online or by calling our Customer Service Centre on 0800 59 16 88.
- Can I use my temporary card when I shop online?
- Yes. However, your Clubcard needs to be registered first. If you haven't registered it yet, you can register your temporary card here or by calling our Helpline on 0800 59 16 88.
- I have two different key fobs - do I need to use both of them?
- No, they both do the same thing. Pop one on your keys, and give one to another member of your household so they can collect points for you.
- I had a Clubcard years ago. Will I be able to retrieve my old points?
- If it was more than two years ago, no. If it was less than two years ago, log in as normal. If you can't remember your log in details, call our helpline on 0800 59 16 88 and they will help you merge your old account with your new one.
- How do I change my password?
- First, log in to your account at: https://secure.tesco.com/register/account.aspx If you're already logged in, you'll be taken to the grocery homepage. In that case, select 'my account' from the top of the page. Then, select 'your password' and follow the instructions to enter a new password and then save the changes.
- I have forgotten the password I registered online with. What do I do?
- If you've forgotten your password, please follow the instructions on the login page and we will send your password to the email account you registered with.
- My details I used to register with Tesco.com are different to those on My Clubcard Account. Does this matter?
- Yes. Our systems need to have the same information about you. Please update both accounts with the right address, phone number, email address and preferences.

Clubcard points
- What is qualifying spend and how do I earn points?
- Depending on where you use your Clubcard, there will be a minimum spend required before you start to earn points. Currently this is £1 in store and £2 at petrol filling stations. The earn rate will also differ, depending on where the transaction takes place. Full details on the different ways to collect points can be found here.
- What are non-qualifying products?
- Unfortunately, you can't earn points on some products due to various legal, regulatory or contractual reasons. These products are: tobacco or tobacco related products, lottery, stamps, prescription medicines, infant formula milk, Tesco Gift Cards, saving stamps, in-store concessions, Paypoint payments or purchases of some Tesco Bank products. Other products may also be excluded from the scheme at the discretion of Tesco.
- Why can't I collect more than 30,000 points per collection period?
- To help us manage the scheme and to ensure all customers are treated fairly, a limit of 30,000 points has been introduced for each collection period.
- What are carried forward points?
- Any points that fall below the qualifying threshold (or any points that remain in your account once your Clubcard vouchers have been issued) will be carried forward to the next collection period. If an account is unused for two years, the carried forward points will expire and be removed from the account.
- How do I see my Tesco Bank points?
- Points from Tesco Bank are converted separately in your account at the time of the statement mailing.
- I have a Tesco Bank credit card and have been using it. I have just got my statement, but there are no points from my credit card on it. Where are they?
- The easiest way to see your points is to link your cards to one account. Call our Clubcard helpline on 0800 59 16 88 and someone will talk you through it. Otherwise, points from your Tesco Bank credit card may appear on a separate statement. Please allow a few days for this to arrive in the post.
- Looking at my points transactions on My Clubcard account, I don't remember using my card for a transaction. I think someone may be using my card. What do I do?
- First, check that another account holder didn't use your Clubcard. Then check that it wasn't a transaction where you used your key fob to collect the points. If it's still a mystery, please call our Clubcard Helpline on 0800 59 16 88 to report the incident.
- I am missing points. Where are they?
- Though Tesco and our points partners try to process all points as quickly as possible, some areas are unable to add points on a frequent basis. These are:
- Travel Money, Car Insurance - points added monthly
- Tesco Entertainment, Wine by the Case, change from vouchers spent on Clubcard Rewards - points added before end of statement collection period
- E.ON - points awarded for payments made may take up to 2 weeks to be added.
Please allow time for these to be added. - How can I find out how many Clubcard points I've got?
- You can find out by looking at your account online, click here for My Clubcard Account. Your points balance can also be found on the bottom of your till receipt. If you have a smart phone you can download our Tesco app and use it to view your points balance. You can also call the Clubcard Helpline on 0800 59 16 88.
- One of my relatives has died. Can I change their card to my name so that their points aren't lost?
- No. The Data Protection Act prevents us from changing any details on a card without the owner's consent. You can have the points transferred to your existing card or we can send you a new card - but the request for this must be in writing.

Dundee DD2 3ZR - My partner buys petrol but always forgets to take my Clubcard. Can I get the points added?
- Yes, you can. You will need to take those receipts to the Customer Service desk in store within 14 days, along with your Clubcard, and we will add the points onto your account. You can only have two receipts added in a 14 day period. To help in the future, the easiest thing to do is to give them one of your key fobs so you can both collect on the same account. Also, with a key fob they're much more likely to remember to collect the points!

Joining, merging and splitting Clubcards
- How do I join my account with someone else's?
- If two Clubcard members live at the same address, you may join your accounts together by calling our Customer Service Centre on 0800 59 16 88. For data protection purposes, both members must be available to talk to the member of staff. Once complete, you will both be named members on a joint Clubcard account and both of you may control this account.
- How do I split my account from someone else's?
- If you have a joint account and wish to create two separate accounts, please call our Customer Service Centre on 0800 59 16 88. The account will be split into two and any points collected will be divided between the two accounts, based on whose card or key fob was originally used to collect the points. Any vouchers already issued will not be affected and it is the responsibility of both members to agree how to divide these up between themselves.
- Can I have a card to give to someone else?
- All cards are issued to the Clubcard member named on the account and must not be transferred in any way. If you have friends or family living at the same address, you may give them one of your key fobs to help you collect points faster.
- Can I have a key fob to give to someone else?
- Key fobs may be given to family and friends, providing they live with you at the same address. Key fobs may not be used by anyone who does not live with you.
- I'd like to join my Partner's card to mine - is that possible?
- Yes. Your partner needs to be at the same address as you and be over 18. We need to speak to both of you to obtain consent, so just give us a call on 0800 59 16 88 at a time that suits you both.
- I have a joint account but my partner and I have separated. Do I need to start a new account with a new card?
- No. We can remove your card from the joint account and it will take any points earned during the current collection period with it. However, we can't change the address on a partner's card - they'll need to call us to do this. Please agree between yourselves how any vouchers that you have earned will be split.
- I'd like to collect points with a partner / friend. Do they need to sign up if I have two key fobs?
- Not necessarily. You can give your key fobs to anyone who lives at your address and is over the age of 18, so if your partner or friend lives with you, they won't need to sign up in order to collect points as well - you can both simply use the same account.
General
- What do the terms and conditions apply to?
- The terms and conditions form the contract between us (Clubcard) and you (the Clubcard member) and underpin how the scheme operates. They apply to the entire Clubcard scheme and are applicable to all members. Please be aware that there are optional elements of Clubcard that may have additional terms and conditions. Examples of these are - Christmas Savers , Rewards, Clubcard Perks and Clubcard Credit Card.
- Why are there separate terms and conditions for optional elements of the Clubcard scheme?
- The core terms and conditions apply to all members of the Clubcard scheme. Not all of our members participate in the optional elements of the scheme, so not all of the terms and conditions are relevant for everyone.
- How can I find out how many Clubcard points I've got?
- To see your points balance, just check the bottom of your receipt whenever you shop at Tesco, or while you're here, why not check your points balance online.
- I forgot to present my Clubcard in store - what do I do?
- If you forget to present your Clubcard, you may have your points manually added to your account next time you are in store, at the Customer Service desk. Please provide your receipt and Clubcard to the member of staff. Note that the transaction must have taken place within the last 14 days and that you are restricted to presenting two receipts per day.
- Can I add points to my Clubcard online? I forgot to use my card the last time I went shopping.
- Sorry but no, you can't currently add your points online. This has to be done at Customer Services, in store.
- I'm about to change my home shopping account address. Will my vouchers be automatically sent to my new address?
- No, you'll have to change the address on your Clubcard, too. It's easy for us to change your details though. Give us a call on 0800 59 16 88 or update them in My Clucbard Account under ‘My Personal Details'
- What happens if my details are out of date?
- If you move house and forget to tell us your new address, we'll continue to send your statement to your old address, which means you won't receive any vouchers you have earned. Once we're aware you have moved we will stop sending statements to your old address until you provide us with your new one.
- What happens when a relative dies and they had a Clubcard?
- If a family member dies, please write to our Customer Service Centre detailing the member's name, address and Clubcard number. We will close the account so that no further mailings are sent. The Data Protection Act prevents us from changing any details on a card without the owner's consent but you can have the points transferred to your existing card or we can send you a new card. However, the request for this must be in writing. Please write to:

- Why can I only have one account?
- You only need one account to participate in the scheme, regardless of the number of different cards you may have, i.e. Clubcard, Clubcard Credit Card, etc. Having one account means you can easily keep track of the points you are collecting in one place and means we only need to send you one statement, which is better for the environment.
- I have more than one account, what should I do?
- Call our Customer Service Centre on 0800 59 16 88. They will be able to merge all of your accounts into one so that you can easily keep track of the points you are collecting.
- Why do you remove accounts if no points are collected for two years?
- We are obliged to not keep personal information for longer than is necessary. Members who don't use the scheme for two years are considered to have left the scheme and their details are removed. Of course, customers are free to join the scheme again in the future by simply re-registering their details.
- How do I leave the scheme?
- If you wish to leave the Clubcard scheme, please call our Customer Service Centre on 0800 59 16 88.
- What happens when I leave the scheme?
- If you leave the Clubcard scheme your account will be closed and you will no longer receive a statement mailing or be able to collect points. Any vouchers that have been issued will also be cancelled. If you have points in your account or vouchers that you wish to use, we recommend that you do so before choosing to leave the scheme.
- I don't use Tesco.com. Can I still sign up for My Clubcard account?
- Yes, all Clubcard customers can sign up to My Clubcard account but for security reasons you will need to register with Tesco.com in order to log in
