m. on May 31. The vouchers in question were issued in May 2024 and are reaching the end of their two-year validity period. The company is encouraging members to check their accounts immediately to avoid losing the value. With around 24 million Clubcard users across the UK, many customers may have unused vouchers sitting in their accounts without realising.
Tesco said the current period represents a significant quarter for voucher expirations. The retailer is urging shoppers to review their balances before the deadline. A spokesperson for the company said this is a big quarter for Clubcard voucher expiry, with more than £17 million of vouchers due to expire at the end of May.
Vouchers can be used for discounts with restaurant partners, savings on days out across the UK, railcards or hotel bookings. " — Shama Wilson, Tesco’s group membership and loyalty director (GB News) Clubcard members earn one point per £1 spent in stores or online, and one point per £2 spent at Tesco petrol stations.
Additional points can be collected through Tesco Bank credit cards and selected partner brands. Every 150 points convert automatically into a £1.50 voucher. New vouchers are issued in February, May, August and November. Each voucher remains valid for two years from issuance.
They can be spent directly in Tesco stores or exchanged with reward partners, where their value is often doubled or tripled.
Tesco highlighted one method for customers to extend the life of unused vouchers. Making a small online purchase using a Clubcard voucher triggers the remaining balance to be credited back to the account with a new two-year expiry date. This allows the value to be preserved without spending the full amount before the current deadline.
