How to earn Avios via Clubcard by taking gas and electricity from E.ON
Links on Head for Points may support the site by paying a commission. See here for all partner links.
E.ON is one of the lesser known Tesco Clubcard partners. This is because, since the end of 2013, you do NOT earn Tesco Clubcard points directly from them.
E.ON has its own rewards scheme – E.ON Rewards – and it is those points which can be converted into Tesco Clubcard.
The other reason it is low key is that E.ON Rewards is an ‘opt in’ scheme. If you don’t sign up, you don’t earn any points, even though E.ON is supplying your fuel.
E.ON Rewards is simplicity itself. You can find an introduction to the scheme here.
You earn a capped 1,500 E.ON Rewards points per year for being on an eligible electricity or dual fuel tariff
Points accrue daily and are awarded monthly
You can either transfer these to Tesco Clubcard (1:1, no minimum) or for Bonusbond high street shopping vouchers (500 = £5 voucher)
Points expire after two years if not redeemed
Points do NOT transfer automatically. You need to go onto the E.ON Rewards website to move them across.
As you can see, E.ON appears to be quietly hoping that many customers either fail to opt-in to the scheme or, if they do, forget about it and let their points expire!
1,500 Clubcard points per year is worth 3,600 Avios or 3,750 Virgin Flying Club miles. Given the size of the most gas and electricity bills, however, this is a drop in the ocean. Your first priority should be to find the cheapest supplier and only then, if it is E.ON, take the points into account.
