Tesco Starts Offering Clubcard Points For Charging Electric Vehicles

Shoppers can now collect Tesco Clubcard points when they top up their electric car on a visit to the supermarket.

Tesco-Clubcard-Pod-chargingMembers of the Clubcard loyalty scheme can collect one point for every pound spent on charging at Pod’s Vauxhall-branded chargers at Tesco stores.

Electric vehicle drivers can also get 2,500 Clubcard points by signing up to Pod’s all-inclusive home charging subscription, Pod Drive, as a new customer.

Tesco’s Group Membership and Loyalty Director Shama Wilson said: “Our customers have long been able to collect points on fuel from Tesco, but with an increasing number of drivers switching to electric vehicles, we are delighted that shoppers will now be able to collect Clubcard points when they charge their cars at our stores, thanks to our exciting partnership with Pod.

“You can now park at your local Tesco and top-up your electric vehicle while you shop, in the knowledge that you are collecting Clubcard points towards a future Tesco shop or to exchange with one of our Reward Partners.”

Pod’s CEO Melanie Lane added: “We’re thrilled to deepen our longstanding partnership with Tesco and provide an incentive for Clubcard members to make the switch to an EV and join over a quarter million customers that trust Pod with their charging needs.

“We know that the more that EVs blend with people’s everyday routines, the more it makes sense to go electric, and with our unique partnership, we’re able to align drivers’ charging experiences across both home and public charging points.”
