Tesco Clubcard Alert: £18 Million in Vouchers Expire Soon Here’s How to Use or Extend Them

Attention Tesco shoppers! If you’ve got a Clubcard, check your account immediately. A whopping £18 million worth of vouchers is set to expire on Saturday, 30 November. Don’t worry if you’re not ready to spend them yet—there’s a clever trick to extend their validity.

How to Check Your Tesco Clubcard Vouchers

Tesco Clubcard vouchers are valid for two years from their issue date, unless you extend them. If you’re unsure whether yours are about to expire, here’s how to find out:

Check Paper Vouchers
Look at the expiry date printed on your physical voucher.
Lost paper vouchers or unsure?
Use the Tesco Clubcard website or app to check digitally:
- On the Website:
  - Go to the Tesco Clubcard site and log in.
  - Select “Clubcard account,” then “Vouchers.”
  - A table will display all your available vouchers and their expiry dates.
- On the App:
  - Open the Tesco app (download it for free on the App Store or Google Play).
  - Go to “Clubcard,” then “Vouchers” to see your available balance and expiry details.

How to Use Tesco Clubcard Vouchers

Once you’ve found your vouchers, there are a few ways to use them:

Spend Them at Tesco
Use the provided code for online shopping or print the vouchers (or scan the barcode in the app) for in-store purchases.
Double Their Value with Tesco Reward Partners
Boost your vouchers by redeeming them with Tesco’s Reward Partners, such as Disney+, Legoland, or Pizza Express.
- For example, 500 Clubcard points are usually worth £5 at Tesco. With a reward partner, those same 500 points could become £10.
- This is an excellent way to get more bang for your buck on dining, entertainment, and more.

Want to Keep Your Vouchers? Try This Trick to Extend Them

If you’re not ready to spend your vouchers, you can extend their validity for another two years with this simple trick.

How It Works

Go to the Tesco Clubcard Rewards page (not other Tesco pages or in-store).
Make a small purchase or donation to one of Tesco’s partner charities. For example:
- Use a £5 voucher to buy a 50p restaurant voucher.
- The remaining £4.50 is credited back to your Clubcard account as points.
These points will be converted into new vouchers with a fresh two-year expiry date.

Things to Note

You’ll need to do this before 11:59 PM on Saturday, 30 November.
Repeat the process for each voucher you want to extend.
Consider whether it’s worth the effort for small denominations (e.g., extending a £10 voucher might be more valuable than a handful of £1 vouchers).

Tips to Maximize Your Tesco Clubcard Rewards

Plan Purchases Wisely
Use your vouchers for essentials or items already on your shopping list to avoid overspending.
Combine Offers
Pair your vouchers with in-store promotions or sales for extra savings.
Track Your Points
Regularly check your account to ensure you don’t miss out on expiring vouchers.
Use Reward Partners
Doubling the value of your points can provide significant savings on experiences, dining, and subscriptions.

Don’t Let Your Vouchers Expire!

Tesco’s Clubcard system offers excellent value, but only if you use your vouchers before they expire. Whether you spend them now or use the trick to extend their validity, don’t let them go to waste.
