Tesco e-Gift Card Specific Terms and Conditions
What can I use the Tesco e-Gift Card for and how do I get one?
-
This electronic gift card (“e-gift card”) can only be used for purchases in Tesco stores within the UK. You can purchase one e-gift card per order online at www.tescogiftcards.com and you can load any amount between £5 and £150 on it. It’s not re-loadable, and once it’s purchased, we can’t top up the balance or give you a part refund if you change your mind.
-
The e-gift card can be sent by either email or text message and will be delivered to the email address or mobile phone number as specified during the purchase journey. Tesco e-gift cards can’t be bought in or collected from, Tesco UK stores.
-
You can use the e-gift card for full or part-payment towards any products sold within a Tesco store whilst the e-gift card is valid. “Store” includes third party concessions and petrol stations.
How does it work?
-
The e-gift card must be presented at a self-service or manned checkout in a Tesco UK store. It can’t be spent online. The amount redeemed from an e-gift card and the balance remaining on it will be shown on the till receipt, which you should keep. It is not a cheque guarantee, credit or charge card and no interest is paid on card balances.
-
You can also check the available balance on an e-gift card online or by calling 0345 0757757.
-
The e-gift card is valid for a period of 5 years from the date it was activated or your last transaction, whichever is later. For these purposes, a transaction includes both a balance enquiry and using the e-gift card to pay for a purchase. You will not be able to use your e-gift card after that date and any unused balance on the card will be lost.
-
You should treat the e-gift card like cash and ensure that it is kept safe until you need it. When you receive an activation email from us, you can use the e-gift card. Once activated, Tesco can’t be held liable for lost or stolen e-gift cards or any credit amounts on such cards, and we can’t offer cash or credit in place of the balance on a lost or stolen e-gift card.
-
If you don’t redeem the entire value of the e-gift card in a transaction, the balance will remain on your e-gift card until it is used again or until it expires. We won’t give change, nor will we exchange the balance for cash.
