      What are employees saying?

      I've saved over £400 in the last 12 months at a wide variety of high street and on-line retailers, not by changing where I shop, but by buying discounted e-vouchers and then paying either online or in store with them.

      The majority of my regular cashback comes from my weekly grocery shop. The card is easy to use! Getting cashback is seamless, and is very useful for big purchases/at Christmas-time etc. I do all my weekly grocery shopping on it and we use it as our family expenses card, paying for meals out and trips away.

      Supermarket discounts make a great saving on purchases you make out of necessity. Evouchers are great to purchase for gifts, especially the discounted websites for sending gifts; i.e letterbox gifts. The savings are great and such a good perk, especially during these times. Highly recommended and its great the variety of retailers available. It truly is saving on your day-to-day spending.

      Really great offers at a variety of retailers. Really good for booking holidays on the best booking sites. Also good to buy bulk home items where the discounts can lead to big savings!!
