YourPoints - 3 things you need to know
Loyalty YourPoints
You'll receive 2,500 bonus points when you take out a new card, and every year thereafter. So that’s enough points every year for a £10 shopping voucher to spend at M&S, Boots or amazon.co.uk, with 500 points left over to put towards your next great reward.
Collecting YourPoints
For every £1 you spend you'll earn 1 point. So the more you use your card the sooner you can afford to spend YourPoints, your way. It really is that simple.
Spending YourPoints
Now for the fun part – the spending. Use YourPoints for almost anything our partners sell, like the latest digital camera from Amazon.co.uk, designer labels from Harvey Nichols, a second honeymoon from ebookers.com or a weekend break with easyJet.
Unlike other programmes, when our reward brands have a sale, so does YourPoints – this means better value for you. For example, if brands like BA, easyJet, Hilton or Hertz discount their prices, you use fewer YourPoints.
