UK | Sainsbury’s is giving EV drivers the opportunity to supercharge their summer with the biggest ever Nectar points giveaway from Smart Charge, its ultra-rapid EV charging network.
Until the 20th of July 2025, EV drivers who charge at any Smart Charge location and add their Nectar card will automatically be entered into a competition for the chance to win one million Nectar points, worth at least GBP 5,000 in rewards.
“Smart Charge makes EV charging simple, reliable, accessible, and affordable for all EV drivers across the UK,” said Patrick Dunne, Chief Property and Procurement Officer, and MD Smart Charge.
“We’re proud to be the UK’s first EV charging service to offer loyalty rewards from Nectar, the UK’s largest multi-partner loyalty programme, at our charging hubs. This giveaway is a brilliant way for us to further reward our loyal customers.”
With Nectar’s network of over 500 big-brand partners, the winning customer has the luxury of choice when it comes to deciding how they spend their bounty. From everyday essentials and items for the home at Sainsbury’s, Argos, Habitat and Tu to unforgettable experiences, there are so many ways you can spend your Nectar points.
For example:
- Sainsbury’s – Save on the weekly shop or on entertaining friends and family, from food and drink to household essentials
- Argos, Tu and Habitat – Choose from thousands of products across home, tech, fashion and toys
- Travel – Convert points into Avios for flights or book a summer getaway with Eurostar
- Charitable causes – Donate points to organisations like Comic Relief and The Woodland Trust
“With one million points on offer, customers have the freedom to use their reward in ways that are most meaningful to them; from groceries to travel and technology. It’s an excellent example of how the Nectar coalition delivers loyalty everyone loves,” said Amir Rasekh, Managing Director of Nectar360.
“Whether customers are heading off on a summer road trip or simply topping up while doing the weekly shop, this promotion is a great way for us to reward EV drivers through Nectar, offering one lucky customer the chance to win big, while giving all Smart Charge users the benefit of earning points every time they charge.”
