Tesco has expanded its Clubcard Points Partners programme to more than 500 online retailers through a new shopping platform powered by loyalty technology company Valuedynamx.

The partnership was announced by Valuedynamx on 14 October 2026. Participating brands include Nike, Lego, Lookfantastic, Trainline and Selfridges, bringing more fashion, travel, beauty and leisure purchases into Tesco’s loyalty programme.

Clubcard members can access the offers through Tesco’s app or Clubcard website, then follow a link to a participating retailer to complete their purchase. Eligible spending earns Tesco Clubcard points at the rate advertised by each partner. The rates and exclusions vary, so this is not a blanket offer of the same points on every purchase.

The expansion changes the reach of Tesco’s loyalty programme. Until now, customers mainly earned points through Tesco spending and a relatively small number of external partners. The new arrangement makes Clubcard relevant to more purchases made outside the grocery sector, particularly ahead of the Christmas shopping period.

For Tesco, the potential benefit is more frequent customer interaction with Clubcard between supermarket trips. Points earned elsewhere can be converted into Tesco vouchers or used through the existing rewards programme, helping keep the supermarket brand involved in wider household spending.

For the participating retailers, the programme provides another way to reach shoppers. Valuedynamx supplies the offers-and-rewards commerce technology and the partner network that connects members to those retailers.

The launch also raises questions for grocery competitors. Supermarket loyalty programmes increasingly compete on much more than shelf prices, combining promotions, digital offers and partnerships to encourage shoppers to keep using the same account. Broader partnerships may increase the appeal of a card, although the size of that effect remains unproven.

There is an important distinction between expanding the number of partners and demonstrating commercial results. Neither Tesco nor Valuedynamx has published figures for incremental supermarket sales, new Clubcard enrolments or changes in member retention resulting from the expanded programme.

Retail buyers and FMCG brands should therefore treat the announcement as a change in loyalty reach rather than evidence of stronger grocery demand. More customer interactions may create marketing opportunities, but any gains for product suppliers would depend on how Tesco uses its loyalty engagement and what data and promotional arrangements are available.

MoneySavingExpert has examined the consumer value of the new earning rates, while Retail Gazette concentrated on the participating brands and launch details. The trade question is whether rewards earned outside supermarkets translate into measurable loyalty inside them.

The expansion also follows Tesco’s continuing investment in convenience and online grocery. GTN previously reported on Tesco’s rapid-delivery partnerships, another example of how the group is expanding its digital routes to shoppers.

Valuedynamx says Points Partners became available to Clubcard members on 9 October, with the public announcement issued on 14 October. The company expects the range of partners and categories to expand over time.
