This development builds on the existing partnership between Nectar and Uber, which already allows members to use accumulated points for Uber rides and Uber Eats orders. The new arrangement enables earning points on Sainsbury's groceries ordered through Uber Eats.
Now, they can collect Nectar points on all their Sainsbury’s essentials as well as spending them across the entire Uber app.
