Holland & Barrett has launched a revamped loyalty app, now called H&B&Me, that rewards shoppers with 4 points per £1 spent, plus an extra 10% off own-brand vitamins, minerals, supplements, and healthy snacks in-store until September 30. The app also offers new members an instant 300 bonus points (£3 value) on their first purchase.
How the H&B&Me loyalty app works
Formerly known as Rewards for Life, the loyalty scheme has been rebranded as HandBandMe, or H&B&Me. Unlike rival schemes such as the Boots Advantage Card, which offers 3 points per £1, H&B&Me gives shoppers 4 points per £1. Once users hit 50 points, they can convert them into money-off vouchers.
The app functions as an ecosystem that goes beyond tracking past purchases, actively guiding users along their wellness journey. App members can stack the extra 10% discount with existing multi-buy promotions.
Deals and customer feedback
For example, the Holland & Barrett Iron and Vitamin C Tablets (£7.25 for 90) qualify for the extra 10% app discount and can be stacked with the current Buy One, Get One Free offer, allowing shoppers to pick up Vitamin D3 Tablets (£5.59) for free. Beauty lovers can save £4.99 on the Holland & Barrett Marine Collagen with Vitamin C (£49.99 for 180 tablets).
Shoppers on Trustpilot have praised the app as 'straightforward' to set up. One user noted: "Helpful staff and high-quality products with lots of buy-one-get-one-free/half-price vibes. I found their app the easiest to set up." Another shared: "I love the App and website. I like getting the good deals and promos. Easy to use and great products."
One customer who experienced glitchy website checkouts found that switching to the mobile app resolved the issue 'seamlessly', adding: "I eventually downloaded the H&B app, where everything went smoothly. My order was spot on and didn't take that long to be delivered, and I was very pleased with the offer I received in order to buy my chosen items."
Click & Collect free gift
While a handful of customers noted that standard home delivery can occasionally take a few extra days, with one reviewer writing: "Great app, great products, but slow shipping. If I had known the shipping would take so long, I would have visited a store instead. I absolutely love the products I purchased, but shipping took 10 days" - shoppers can bypass delivery waits using the retailer's Click & Collect service.
Placing an order online and choosing in-store Click & Collect unlocks a free gift plus a 10% voucher off shoppers' next purchase. As another reviewer summed up: "Order on a regular basis from H&B. Never an issue with variety of items; always in stock; prompt delivery. Downloaded the app and made the shopping experience even better."
