How do I collect my Nectar points?
You can collect Nectar points by scanning the unique QR Code on your Nectar app or by using your physical Nectar card.
Use it at Sainsbury’s stores, Argos, Esso, Dulux Decorator Centres, and all other Sainsbury’s partner outlets.
The points you collect will be based on your final payment amount after all applicable offers and discounts. Always link your Nectar card before checkout to earn rewards. Points are no longer added automatically if you link your Nectar card after completing a purchase.
This ensures your rewards reflect your actual spend and provides a seamless experience for all our loyal customers.
