Easy to use, if you don’t want to carry notes around, you can use this card aboard, even add extra on the app from your debit card. Would definitely recommend and use for future holidays

Developer Response ,

Hi. Thank you so much for your review! Kind regards, Online Support Team

Get ready for a hassle

When opening the travel card at the Asda branch, they failed to inform me that this card has one of the most pointless policies I have ever heard, it can only be topped up once every 24hrs. Luckily I tried to top it up before my flight as I would have found myself with no money on the card before the initial 24hr period. Now, when registering on the app, I would continuously receive the prompt stating I have entered incorrect information. So had to call customer service and they confirmed the info was indeed correct and then they had to register my details on the account before setting up the app.

Hi, sorry to hear this, so we can investigate the issue further, please can we ask you to email us at [email protected] so that we can follow up and perhaps provide a resolution. Kind regards, Online Support Team

Paying good, anything else forget it

Paying with pre loaded credit is a dream. Ability to check balance quickly. However topping up becomes a nightmare. Will not download app outside of UK on some phones. Doesn’t understand you have to navigate away from app to authorise via banks app. Asda app then sits there in a fluster. Still going through website was painless.

Hi, thank you for your review. We do apologise for the issues you have experienced with the app, if possible, pleas can you send any further feedback to [email protected]. Thanks, Online Support Team

NEWS... BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT

Asda’s loyalty scheme is changing — here’s what you need to know

Share this with

Fan of Asda ’s popular reward scheme? Well, the supermarket is making a significant change to the system.

The chain has confirmed that Blue Light card holders who shop in Asda  will now receive less in their rewards cash pot. 

The Blue Light Card offers exclusive discounts to thousands of emergency workers in retailers like Asda.

However, as of April 25, Asda has confirmed that Blue Light Card holders will now receive a 5% discount instead of the previous 10% on fresh food items, including meat, fish, fruits, vegetables, fresh fruit juices, smoothies, dairy, and bakery products.

This 5% discount will be reflected in the cardholders’ Asda rewards cash pot as usual.

Since the news broke, shoppers have expressed their frustration on Facebook upon learning about this change.

‘Back to Tesco Clubcard. Absolutely appalling 5%,’ wrote John Rushton-Gundy.

‘This is a real shame,’ added Alexis Drayson.

While Paul Michael said: ‘Time to look at doing all of my shopping in Aldi again.’

In contrast to this reaction, there were also shoppers who argued that they appreciated what the scheme was providing, no matter the size of the discount.

‘We need to remember Asda don’t have to give us anything. I really appreciate that just by scanning my phone each time I go, I get something in return,’ stated Diana Jones.

Asda is the only major supermarket in the UK that currently offers Blue Light Card holders these benefits.

And despite the adjustment in discounts, Blue Light Card holders will still enjoy access to exclusive Asda Rewards offers. These are now beginning with a competition where cardholders have the opportunity to win up to £100 in their Cashpots every day they spend £5 or more until May 27, 2024.

Who is eligible to get the Blue Light Discount?

Only those in certain emergency service or key worker roles can apply for a Blue Light Discount.

Here is the full list of eligible jobs:

• Ambulance service
• Blood bikes
• Fire service
• Highways traffic officers
• HM armed forces
• HM armed forces veteran
• HM coastguard
• HM prison and probation service
• Home Office (Borders and Immigration)
• Independent lifeboats
• MoD civil servant
• MoD fire service
• NHS Dental Practice
• Reserved army forces
• Search and rescue
• Social care
• St Andrews ambulance
• St John ambulance

To be eligible for a card you have to prove your profession by uploading a form of valid ID or recent payslip.

To sign up, just head to the Blue Light Card website where you’ll have to fill out a form.

What is Asda’s loyalty scheme?

To enroll in Asda’s loyalty program, you’ll first need to download the Asda Rewards app, available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play store.

Once downloaded, creating an account is straightforward if you don’t already have one. All you have to do is simply provide your name and other necessary details to get started.

Then, it’s time to start building up your Asda Rewards Cashpot. You earn Asda Pounds, both in-store and online, by buying certain products highlighted in the ‘star products’ section of the app, these are a selection of both branded and Asda own-brand items that can earn you extra rewards.

There are also ‘super star’ deals where you can earn bigger cash rewards.

To redeem your Asda Rewards, you need to convert your Asda Pounds into money off vouchers, which can be redeemed at the till or online when you pay.

At the checkout, simply scan the app’s barcode to accumulate rewards. For online purchases, ensure you’re logged into your account and shop as usual.

You need to convert your Asda Pounds within six months, or they expire.

Asda profits up 24% to £1.1bn in 2023

Even though Asda has been losing market share, it attributed its profit growth to its loyalty programme.

Business reporter @taaffems

Monday 22 April 2024 12:43, UK

Profits at the UK's third-biggest supermarket chain grew 24% in 2023, topping more than £1bn in a year where households struggled with the cost of living.

Asda said its bottom line was boosted by growing supermarket sales, with 5.4% growth - excluding fuel and the effect of new Asda shops opening.

Pre-tax profit reached £1.1bn over 2023, up 24% compared to 2022.

The value of those total sales, also leaving out fuel, hit nearly £22bn during the year.

Why are profits up?

It's thanks to roughly six million customers who now use the Asda loyalty app, the chain said.

Around half of all sales are linked to the Asda reward programme, which the firm said was a "key revenue driver".

Asda's clothing section, George, was already the UK's biggest retailer for kids, but sales increased by 3.4% over the year, valued at £1.5bn.

Sales growth, however, was slower than it had been a year ago.

Price rises - driven by high inflation - helped Asda sales, its chief financial officer Michael Gleeson said.

Asda had "tried very hard to protect customers from the worst impacts" of inflation, Mr Gleeson said, and pledged to match the prices of hundreds of items sold at discount rivals Aldi and Lidl.

Despite those efforts and growing sales, Asda still lost ground to its competitors.

Its market share fell behind rivals Sainsbury's and Tesco to 13.6%, according to industry analysts Kantar, as it faced tough competition from the likes of Aldi and Lidl.

What's been happening at Asda?

Mr Gleeson said competitors Tesco and Sainsbury's "managed to insulate themselves a little bit" against discount retailers by growing out their convenience shops.

It's something Asda has been working on, he said, adding: "I think that was clearly a gap that we needed to address and that's what we've been doing over the last 18 months, and we now have just short of 500 convenience stores".

Asda has bought petrol forecourts from EG Group and Co-op over the past few years , allowing it to expand into convenience stores.

Brothers Mohsin and Zuber Issa joined forces with private equity group TDR Capital to buy Asda three years ago.

They own 45% of the company, while US grocery giant Walmart controls 10% and the remainder is owned by TDR.

Asda as a result faced interest payments of at least £30m from February as loans taken on by the billionaire brothers to fund their £6.8bn purchase of the supermarket became due.

They bought Asda from Walmart with a high amount of borrowed money - a takeover that drew scrutiny from MPs and unions.

It's been reported by Bloomberg that Zuber Issa is preparing to sell his stake to TDR.
