Tesco Clubcard deadline today sees major change to app - but not all shoppers affected

A deadline for Tesco shoppers who use the Clubcard app on their phone has arrived today - but not everyone is affected.

The Tesco Clubcard app in the UK is set to close today on Tuesday, April 18, with a brand new app replacing it.

However, Irish customers needn't worry as the changes won't affect them and the Tesco Clubcard app in Ireland will continue to function as normal.

But Tesco shoppers in the UK who use the Clubcard app on their phones now need to have a new app downloaded in order to get money off their purchases and build up points.

The new Tesco Grocery & Clubcard app is available to download for free on Android and iPhone.

Shoppers have been reassured that when they download the app, they won't lose any points, vouchers or coupons they already have as these can be accessed on the app via an online account.

This is the second app Tesco have axed this year, after closing their Tesco Pay+ app on February 27.

However, the revamped app combines all the features of listed apps, including the Tesco Grocery app. This means shoppers can also view their points balance, spend Clubcard vouchers, order a grocery delivery and check for stock in your chosen store.

A Tesco spokesperson said: "Bringing the functionality of Tesco Pay+ into the Tesco Grocery & Clubcard app is a demonstration of our focus on providing products which closely align to the needs of Tesco shoppers."
