The Everyday Rewards program gives you a way to earn points on your spending at Woolworths supermarkets, BWS, Big W and participating Caltex Woolworths fuel outlets – as well as with select partners. You can then choose to redeem your points for cash off your shop at Woolworths, save them up for Christmas or convert them to Qantas Points.

Use this guide to learn more about Everyday Rewards, including how to join, how to earn points and the different rewards you can choose from.

How to join Everyday Rewards

There is no cost to join Everyday Rewards and you can sign up through the website in a few minutes by following these steps:

  1. Provide your name, email address, phone number, date of birth and a password for the Everyday Rewards Website.
  2. Provide a mailing address for your Everyday Rewards card.
  3. Confirm your details and click on "Join Everyday Rewards".

After that, you'll be emailed confirmation of your membership. You can then print out a temporary membership card if you want to start earning points straight away. Your actual card will arrive within seven days.

Alternatively, you can also apply to join Everyday Rewards in a participating store. When you do this, you'll get a temporary, cardboard membership card that you can scan to earn points. You'll then need to complete your account activation online by following the steps above.

Earning Everyday Rewards points

Points on your shopping

There are three ways you can earn points for your spending at Woolworths supermarkets, BWS, Big W or at participating Caltex Woolworths fuel outlets:

  • Shopping in person. Swipe your Everyday Rewards membership card at the register before you pay and you'll earn 1 point per $1 spent. Note that if you forget to swipe your card at the checkout, you won’t be able to earn rewards for that purchase.
  • Shopping with your phone. You can also earn points by scanning a digital version of your membership card via the Woolworths app. You’ll just need to download the app to your smart phone or device and add your membership card information under the "More" section. Once these details are saved, you just need to click "show barcode" when holding your phone up to the register.
  • Shopping online. If you buy your groceries through Woolworths Online, you’ll be asked to fill in your Everyday Rewards details as part of the payment process.

What purchases don't earn points?

You can only earn Everyday Rewards points on "eligible purchases", which include most everyday items you'll buy at Woolworths or another partner. Purchases that are not eligible to earn points include smoking products, gift cards, mobile recharge, Woolworths Mobile, travel cards and tickets, delivery charges, internet cafes, Woolworths flowers, Carpet Care, lottery products and purchases made using Caltex Starcard.

Points with partners

Both Origin Energy and Bupa have partnered with Everyday Rewards to offer you the following ways to earn points:

  • Origin Energy. Sign up for an Origin Everyday Rewards Energy Plan and you'll earn at least 5,000 points as a new customer, plus 1 point per $1 on your energy bill. These plans are available for residential properties, with options for electricity, natural gas or a combined plan.
  • Bupa: Link your existing Bupa health insurance account to your Everyday Rewards account and earn 3x points on fresh fruit and veggies, as well as Macro Wholefoods Market products at Woolworths. If you're not a member of Bupa (and haven't been for at least 12 months), you could also collect extra points when you sign up for an eligible health insurance plan and give Bupa your Everyday Rewards details.

Bonus points and special offers

Everyday Rewards provides bonus point offers and other promotions at different times through the year. Current offers are usually shared by email or through the Woolworths app. As well as personalised offers, you’ll also receive member-only deals and exclusive offers in-store, online and via email.

You can also check your current offers, view your point balance and update your reward preferences at selected Woolworths supermarkets that have a Rewards Hub. Simply scan your membership card at the terminal to access these services.

Using a Woolworths credit card

Woolworths also offers two credit cards that earn reward points for your everyday spending and double as your Everyday Rewards membership card. We've highlighted the key details for each card below:

  • Woolworths Everyday Platinum. This credit card offers 3 points per $1 spent on Woolworths brand products, 2 points per $1 spent at participating Woolworths Groups stores and 1 point per $1 spent elsewhere. These points are then converted to a shopping card that you can use across participating Woolworths group stores.
  • Woolworths Qantas Platinum. This card earns 1 Qantas Point per $1 spent up to $2,500 per statement period, then 0.5 points per $1 spent for the rest of that statement period. It also includes complimentary travel insurance and exclusive platinum card offers.

Using Everyday Rewards points

You have three options for using the points you earn through this supermarket loyalty program:

  • Save at the checkout. You’ll automatically save $10 on your next eligible shop at Woolworths or BWS when your balance reaches 2,000 points. Note that you won't be able to get money off your shop through Everyday Rewards when shopping at Big W or Caltex Woolworths fuel outlets.
  • Stock up your points. If you don’t want to redeem rewards each time you reach 2,000 points, you can opt to save your points for events such as Christmas or birthdays when you know you’ll be spending more.
  • Convert to Qantas Points. You can convert your Everyday Rewards to Qantas Points, with 2,000 Everyday Rewards points equalling 1,000 Qantas Points. This is an earn rate of 0.5 Qantas Points per $1 spent. Every 2,000 Everyday Rewards points you earn will be automatically converted to Qantas Points and should appear in your frequent flyer account within 24 hours.

How many Qantas Points can I earn at Woolworths?

Everyday Rewards could help you get extra value from your spending at Woolworths, BWS, Big W and Caltex Woolworths fuel outlets. The range of Woolworths credit cards also offer additional value and rewards, but remember to weigh up the costs of these cards and compare a range of options so that you can find the right fit for your spending habits and needs.

      You’ll automatically save $10 on your next eligible shop at Woolworths or BWS when your balance reaches 2,000 points. Please note that you won’t be able to get money off your shop through Woolworths Rewards when shopping at Big W or Caltex Woolworths fuel outlets.

      Hi Dorothy,

      Thank you for getting in touch with Finder.

      You can save at the checkout since you’ll automatically save $10 on your next eligible shop at Woolworths or BWS when your balance reaches 2,000 points. You may also save your points for Christmas so you can save more for the said season. If you are a Qantas member, you may also convert your Woolworths Rewards points to Qantas points to use for shopping, booking flights and hotels, etc.

      I hope this helps.

      Thank you and have a wonderful day!

      Cheers,
      Jeni

      Hi Jim,

      Thanks for getting in touch with finder. I hope all is well with you. :)

      Yes, Woolworths reward points expire. If you haven’t used or scanned your Rewards card or have completed an online transaction for 18 months, then any unused Points balance of fewer than 2000 Points (i.e. less than $10 Woolworths Dollars) will expire.

      I hope this helps. Should you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach us out again.

      Have a wonderful day!

      Cheers,
      Joshua

      Hi Jan,

      Thank you for getting in touch with finder.

      Kindly log in on your Woolworths Rewards online account and choose your redemption setting to automatic savings. If your balance has hit 2000 points, you’ll have the option to save $10 on your shopping at Woolworths when you scan your Woolworths Rewards card and check out.

      I hope this helps.

      Thank you and have a wonderful day!

    I have received an SMS telling me my points are about to expire and I need to spend them or lose them and gives me a link to use to purchase I decided on a IPhone X is this genuine from Woolies? It seems I am agreeing to pay an amount each month which doesn’t seem right

      Hi Eileen,

      Thank you for getting in touch with finder.

      It is best that you check how much points you got and the cost of the iPhone X. Basically, you will be paying the difference on a monthly basis if your points are insufficient. Kindly log in on your Woolworths Rewards account online to know other options on redeeming your points if you don’t consider getting an iPhone X.

      I hope this helps.

      Thank you and have a wonderful day!

      Cheers,
      Jeni

      Hi Romela,

      Thank you for reaching out to finder. Did you receive the message via text message or email? Usually when there are updates given by Woolsworth such as rewards, bonus points or current offers – these are shared via email. If you have received this via email, all you have to do is log in to the email registered with Woolsworth and click to claim the reward.

      If still you are unable to redeem, kindly get in touch with Woolsworth by phone on 1300 10 1234 and follow the prompts. Please keep your rewards card handy so you can enter your 13-digit card number when prompted before getting additional information.

      Cheers,
      Val

      Hi Wallace,

      Thanks for reaching out to finder.

      If you chose to bank all your savings for your Christmas shop, your banked Woolworths Dollars will come off your shop automatically when you choose in increments of $10.

      To get $10 off your shop, you must spend at least $10 in store or online at Woolworths, BWS or BIG W.

      I hope this helps.

      Cheers,
      Charisse
