Just use your gift card like you would your Tesco Clubcard – scan it at the till and the value will be deducted from the cost of your basket. When shopping online, you might need to type out the gift card number.
- Visit your app or website of choice
See below for the platforms I use
- Find the gift card you want
Shouldn’t be too difficult, just search for it.
- Buy the gift card
Depending on the platform, you can pay by debit/credit card or by instant bank transfer using open banking.
- Receive your cashback
After your purchase is processed and you have received your gift card, you will soon receive your cashback. If you are lucky to have access to an employee discount portal, you would instead have received a discount on the cost of the gift card.
- Use Your Gift Card
Use the gift card you’ve purchased when you shop online or in a physical store. Simply add the gift card during checkout or present the gift card at the till. Most shops will scan the barcode, and the value will be deducted from your purchase.
- Check your cashback balance and withdraw your rewards
Keep an eye on your cashback app’s account to ensure that the promised cashback or rewards have been credited to your balance.
- Redeem Your Cashback
Once you’ve accumulated a certain amount of cashback, you can typically redeem it through various options provided by the app, such as transferring it to your bank account, using it for future purchases, or converting it into gift cards for other retailers.
