Shoppers need to add their full Nectar card number before completing their order, as points cannot be added after a purchase has been made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Nectar Points Added to Sainsbury\u2019s Uber Eats Orders<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The new collection option extends the existing partnership between <strong>Nectar <\/strong>and <strong>Uber<\/strong>, which already allows members to exchange points for vouchers covering Uber journeys and Uber Eats orders. Customers can now collect points while purchasing Sainsbury\u2019s groceries through Uber Eats and later use their Nectar balance for available rewards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/en.econostrum.info\/uk\/sainsburys-supermarket-price-surges-by-17\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"110982\">Sainsbury<\/a>\u2019s, the rollout covers more than 1,300 locations across the UK, giving customers another way to collect points when using the supermarket\u2019s rapid-delivery service. The scheme applies to eligible grocery purchases with a minimum spend of \u00a31.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once a Nectar card has been linked and the purchase qualifies, points will be credited to the customer\u2019s account within<strong> 28 days<\/strong>. The points collection option is available only when shoppers select groceries from a participating Sainsbury\u2019s store through Uber Eats and enter their card details before checkout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some products are <strong>excluded<\/strong> from earning points. These include gift vouchers, baby milk, lottery tickets, tobacco, vapes, nicotine products, proprietary medicines, spirits and liqueurs. Additional restrictions apply to alcohol purchases in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"727\" src=\"https:\/\/en.econostrum.info\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2026\/07\/Sainsburys-Nectar-update-lets-Uber-Eats-shoppers-earn-points-on-eligible-grocery-orders-across-1300-UK-stores-\u00a9-Shutterstock-1200x727.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-123685\" srcset=\"https:\/\/en.econostrum.info\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2026\/07\/Sainsburys-Nectar-update-lets-Uber-Eats-shoppers-earn-points-on-eligible-grocery-orders-across-1300-UK-stores-\u00a9-Shutterstock-1200x727.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/en.econostrum.info\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2026\/07\/Sainsburys-Nectar-update-lets-Uber-Eats-shoppers-earn-points-on-eligible-grocery-orders-across-1300-UK-stores-\u00a9-Shutterstock-380x230.jpg 380w, https:\/\/en.econostrum.info\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2026\/07\/Sainsburys-Nectar-update-lets-Uber-Eats-shoppers-earn-points-on-eligible-grocery-orders-across-1300-UK-stores-\u00a9-Shutterstock-520x315.jpg 520w, https:\/\/en.econostrum.info\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2026\/07\/Sainsburys-Nectar-update-lets-Uber-Eats-shoppers-earn-points-on-eligible-grocery-orders-across-1300-UK-stores-\u00a9-Shutterstock-1536x931.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/en.econostrum.info\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2026\/07\/Sainsburys-Nectar-update-lets-Uber-Eats-shoppers-earn-points-on-eligible-grocery-orders-across-1300-UK-stores-\u00a9-Shutterstock.jpg 1980w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Sainsbury\u2019s Nectar update lets Uber Eats shoppers earn points on eligible grocery orders across 1,300+ UK stores \u00a9 Shutterstock<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Partnership between Nectar and Uber Continues to Develop<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The latest change follows previous links between the two companies, allowing Nectar members to use their points across Uber services.
