How it works
Include your Nectar card number when you apply for or buy a Sainsbury’s Bank product, and you can get money off or lower prices. It’s a little something extra for our Nectar members. What’s more, some of our products come with a one-off Nectar points bonus or (like with our credit cards) the chance to collect extra points on your usual spending.
