Tesco Clubcard holders issued update amid 'two week' coupon shake up

Tesco Clubcard holders can soon expert a change to how they shop amid a shake up to the supermarket.

It comes as Money Saving Expert (MSE) has said that four million Clubcard holders who use their app will now get personalised coupons every two weeks.

These are said to offer extra discounts and bonus points on specific purchases with the soon-to-be shake-up being good news for many eligible Tesco shoppers.

So what do we know about this so far? here's what MSE have said...

Is it just app users that can use the coupons or can all Clubcard holders benefit?

It's currently unclear how much the new coupons will be worth or if the scheme will be available to the other 16 million Clubcard holders who do not have the mobile app, or whether it will at all.

What's changing with Clubcard coupons

MSE have said the key info on Tesco's coupon shake-up are "targeting four million 'digitally engaged' shoppers" and if eligible, you'll now get tailored coupons more often - which is only good news.

They are set to land in your account every two weeks rather than what it was before at six weeks. According to Tesco, this means that you should now get around three coupons each time on average.

This also means that the coupons will be based on your shopping habits so you are more likely to get coupons that you will use.

Can the coupons be used in store and online?

Yes - the coupons can be used both in-store and online. MSE add: "Tesco wasn't able to put a figure on exactly how much you can expect to save (or earn in points) using the new coupons – but examples we've seen include £1 off when you spend £4 on any cheese and 25 extra points on fresh pre-packed carrots."

How will I get my coupons?

If you get your vouchers by post, you'll continue to get your coupons this way. Despite changes being made, whatever option you have it set as is how you will receive them.

How to check for and use the new coupons

The new coupons are digital and you can access them by doing the following steps:

  1. Open the Tesco Grocery & Clubcard app
  2. Go to the 'Clubcard' tab in the app
  3. Scroll down and click on 'My coupons'
  4. Select the coupon(s) you want to use
  5. Simply scan them individually at the till in-store. If you're shopping online, just select the ones you want when you get to the checkout.

MSE add: "The older standalone 'Tesco Clubcard' app is being phased out and will close in 2023, as its features are merged into the main 'Grocery & Clubcard' app. Tesco says it'll give customers 'plenty of notice' before the older app is shut down for good – but your points, vouchers and coupons won't be affected."
