THE best loyalty schemes to save money on your shops have been revealed.
Researchers surveyed customers of 51 major retailers to find out which schemes were shoppers’ favourites.
More than 2,200 UK customers were asked questions about how satisfied they were with the loyalty programme, how likely they were to recommend it, how personalised the rewards are, and how securely the retailer handles their personal information.
Each loyalty scheme was then scored out of 10.
Tesco‘s Clubcard came out on top with an impressive score of 8.38 out of 10.
For every 100 Clubcard points collected, customers earn £1 to spend in store or £2 to spend with partners.
The points can be redeemed on shopping, fuel, clothing or with partners Disney+, restaurants, days out and travel.
Customers said Clubcard was a “very generous programme with plenty of options to redeem” and it made shopping “extra affordable and easy”.
Leon Club came second with a score of 8.2 out of 10.
The healthy fast food chain lets members collect 100 points for every £1 spent, earning a free menu item once they hit 3,000.
Consumer expert Harry Wallop said: “There are hundreds of different reward schemes out there, but how many are used by consumers with genuine enthusiasm?
“This study shines a light on how the best ones offer shoppers and diners more than just a discount – they actually make you want to visit the shop, cafe or restaurant.”
