How To Spend Nectar Points In-Store

Collecting Nectar Points In-Store:

What Are Nectar Points? Nectar points are a loyalty reward system used by various retailers, including Sainsbury’s. Customers can collect points while shopping and then redeem them for discounts or other rewards.

Collecting Nectar Points In-Store When shopping at Sainsbury’s stores, customers can collect Nectar points by swiping or scanning their Nectar card at the checkout. For every £1 spent, they earn 1 Nectar point. These points typically appear in their account within 48 hours. Fun fact: Points can also be earned when dining at the in-store restaurant!
