Q&A: green Clubcard points

Answers to commonly asked questions about green Clubcard points

What is a green Clubcard point?

Green Clubcard points are the same as Clubcard points but are given to reward environmentally friendly behaviour. They have the same value as Clubcard points and can be redeemed in store, online or on Clubcard rewards.

How many points can I collect if I reuse a bag rather than use a new carrier bag?

The principle is that customers are rewarded for how many bags they have saved. So you will be rewarded with one green Clubcard point for every bag you reuse.

If I purchase a couple of items and carry them out in my arms, can I collect a point?

Yes, as you have not used a carrier bag.

Why have Tesco got Clubcard points and green Clubcard points?

We have decided to differentiate between Clubcard points collected for shopping with Tesco and Clubcard points collected for behaving in a more environmentally friendly way.

You can see how many green Clubcard points you have collected in your Clubcard statement.

How do I collect green Clubcard points?

As well as collecting them every time you reuse a bag, instead of using a new carrier, you can also collect green Clubcard points for mobile phone recycling, inkjet recycling and for recycling cans at our automated recycling centres. Find out whether your ink cartridges qualify.

How do I know how many green Clubcard points I have collected?

Green Clubcard points are shown separately on both your till receipt and in your Clubcard statement.

Can customers collect green Clubcard points with Tesco.com?

Yes, Tesco.com offers bagless deliveries. If you choose this option, you will be rewarded with one green Clubcard point for every 10 items ordered.

Some items will still need to be packed in plastic bags such as bleach or loose produce, but the majority of items can be delivered straight from our green trays. Your shopping will then be unloaded for you either at your door or in your kitchen.

Additionally all drivers are happy to take any plastic carrier bags that you would like to recycle – even if they didn’t come from Tesco.

Can I still collect green Clubcard points if I use the self-service tills in store?

Yes, you can use your own bags. At the end of the transaction the till asks whether you have used your own bags and, if so, how many.
