Tesco has launched a new Clubcard available from today, June 24, 2026, exactly 30 years after the original loyalty scheme began. For the first time, the supermarket giant is extending its discount prices and membership points to 16 and 17-year-olds with a card specifically designed for this age group.
New Clubcard for Younger Shoppers
The new Tesco Clubcard for 16-17s allows access to Clubcard Prices on thousands of products, including the iconic Tesco lunchtime meal deal for just £3.85. Cardholders can also collect Clubcard points that can be converted into vouchers for money off at the checkout. To apply, a 16 or 17-year-old must be invited from the Clubcard account of a parent or guardian.
Tesco Group Membership & Loyalty Director Shama Wilson said: "We are delighted to be giving younger customers access to Tesco Clubcard for the first time, and we have no doubt that it will prove popular with 16 and 17-year-olds, whether they are shopping in one of our ‘big Tesco’ or ‘little Tesco’ stores. From today our new Clubcard for 16-17s members will not only be able to get Clubcard Prices in-store, including our iconic Tesco lunchtime meal deal for just £3.85, but also collect points that they can turn into vouchers for money off their in-store shopping."
How to Apply
The ‘Invite to Clubcard’ button is only visible to Clubcard members using the latest version of the Tesco app. Those who cannot find the button are advised to update their app. The easiest way to access the new Clubcard for 16-17s is for a parent or guardian to click on the identity icon in the top corner of their Tesco app, which allows them to access their account settings. In the account settings section, they can then click on the ‘Invite to Clubcard’ button and choose the option to send a sign-up link to their 16 or 17-year-old.
Tesco Clubcard Popularity
Tesco Clubcard is the most popular supermarket loyalty scheme in the UK, running for more than 30 years. Today, more than 24 million UK households have a Tesco Clubcard, with a Clubcard used in more than 80% of sales at Tesco. Thousands of Clubcard Prices offers are available in Tesco stores each week.
