Sainsbury's issues message that affects over a million shoppers with a Nectar card

Sainsbury's has announced a change to their loyalty scheme which will hit 1.8 million shoppers.

The supermarket has announced bank customers will now only get one Nectar point for every £2 spent. The change was confirmed on November 1.

Previously, customers would get two points for every £1 spent at Sainsbury’s, Argos, Habitat and Tu Clothing. The new rules mean cardholders will now get half of the usual points.

  • Argos For Business
  • Argos Spares
  • Argos Financial Services
