Tesco x Pod Points For Charging EVs

Shoppers can now collect Clubcard points for charging electric vehicles at Tesco with partner Pod

UK | Clubcard members can collect a Clubcard point for every pound spent on charging at Pod’s Vauxhall-branded chargers at Tesco stores.

Shoppers will now be able to collect Tesco Clubcard points when they top up their electric car on a visit to the supermarket, thanks to an expanded partnership between Tesco and Pod.

Electric vehicle drivers can now also get 2,500 Clubcard points by signing up to Pod’s all-inclusive home charging subscription Pod Drive as a new customer. To access the Clubcard points deal with Pod Drive, customers start their order through the offer page on Pod’s website.

As part of the sign-up process, they will need to sign into their Tesco Clubcard account to link their order, so that their Clubcard points can be credited once their home charger is successfully installed.

“Our customers have long been able to collect points on fuel from Tesco, but with an increasing number of drivers switching to electric vehicles we are delighted that shoppers will now be able to collect Clubcard points when they charge their cars at our stores, thanks to our exciting partnership with Pod,” said Tesco’s Group Membership and Loyalty Director Shama Wilson.

“You can now park at your local Tesco and top-up your electric vehicle while you shop, in the knowledge that you are collecting Clubcard points towards a future Tesco shop or to exchange with one of our Reward Partners.”

Pod’s CEO, Melanie Lane was thrilled to deepen the longstanding partnership with Tesco and provide an incentive for Clubcard members to make the switch to an EV and join over a quarter million customers that trust Pod with their charging needs.

“We know that the more that EVs blend with peoples’ everyday routines, the more it makes sense to go electric, and with our unique partnership, we’re able to align drivers’ charging experiences across both home and public charging points,” she said.

“Fresh from repositioning the business as Pod and launching Pod Drive, we’re committed to building momentum and bringing our brilliant partners on our mission: to make EV charging easy and affordable for everyone.”

The addition of Pod as a Tesco Clubcard points partner strengthens its existing links with the supermarket.

Pod has been working in partnership with Tesco since 2019, and its partnership with Tesco and Vauxhall operates more than 2,600 EV charging bays at more than 600 Tesco store car parks across the UK.
