[LONDON, UK] - Uber Eats has expanded its partnership with Sainsbury’s and Nectar, allowing UK customers to collect Nectar points on their favourite rapid grocery deliveries. With Sainsbury’s fresh ingredients and everyday essentials delivered to the door, earning rewards from the comfort of home has never been more effortless.
Shoppers can now collect 1 Nectar point for every £1 spent when ordering Sainsbury’s groceries via the Uber Eats app or ubereats.com. The rollout brings rapid delivery with rewards to customers shopping from over 1,300 Sainsbury’s stores across the UK.
This integration builds on the existing capability to redeem points for Uber Vouchers, meaning customers can now seamlessly collect and spend Nectar points across the entire Uber ecosystem. Whether stocking up on midweek meals or ordering last-minute essentials, Uber Eats users can now watch their Nectar balance grow with every order.
Katie Hunter, Uber Eats General Manager for Grocery & Retail in the UK said, "We know how much Uber Eats customers love Nectar, so bringing points directly to their Sainsbury’s orders was a no-brainer. Now, they can collect Nectar points on all their Sainsbury's essentials as well as spending them across the entire Uber app. It’s all about delivering flexibility, convenience, and value for customers right alongside their favourite groceries.”
Mark Given, Sainsbury’s Chief Technology, Marketing and Data Officer said: “We’re creating even more ways for people to get great value from Nectar through our partnership with Uber. Nectar members can already turn their points into Uber rides or Uber Eats treats — and now they can collect points when ordering Sainsbury’s groceries through Uber Eats too. It’s another way we’re helping customers get more from Nectar, whether they’re stocking up on essentials, planning dinner or making everyday life that little bit easier.”

Linking your accounts takes seconds, allowing you to rack up rewards and turn them into future meals or rides.
