Nectar card swipe required at each transaction. We’ll accumulate all your fruit & veg purchases during the Promotional Period and display your total in the app dashboard.
To collect additional Nectar points you must complete your fruit and veg tasks during the Promotional Dates by buying portions of fruit & veg. A portion is equal to 80g (30g for dried fruit, 40g for dried pulses and beans, 20g for concentrated puree) (each a “Portion”). Individual types of fruit and vegetable potions of 80g each are counted separately, and portions are not calculated cumulatively across a basket of products.

Your tasks are personal to you based on your purchasing history and will be clearly shown. Collect points when you complete Task One by buying the requisite number of portions of fruit and veg. Collect additional Nectar points when you complete Task Two and collect even more Nectar points when you complete the final Task.

You must have the most up-to-date version of the Nectar App to view the Promotion summary pod.
