Redeeming Your Uchumi Supermarket U-Club Loyalty Points

Have you accumulated enough points on your Uchumi U-club Card and thinking of redeeming them? The best thing about redeeming points is that it feels like free money and a reward. For reward points, I personally find it gratifying to buy some small appliances that gives a reminder about loyalty to the store. 

First of all, you need to know how many points you have on your account. Checking points on your last till receipt is not advisable as it is always not up to date (not in a bad way, but Uchumi points are not updated immediately after shopping like say Nakumatt Smart Points). To get the most current points status, you can inquire from the customer care desk at any Uchumi outlet. 

Alternatively, you can login to Uchumi U Club Membership page where you can see your real-time points. Once logged-in, you can also view your earn and redemption history including what is not shown on your last receipt.  To login to your Uchumi points from the U club page, you need to retrieve your login details from the first email sent to you upon enrollment to U-club Points.

Redemption Rate for Uchumi Points

The earning rate is 1 point per Kshs 100 spent on eligible shopping. Please note some shopping may not earn you points and these include cooking gas, empty bottle exchanges just to mention a couple.  Uchumi U club Points can be redeemed all year round at a redemption rate of 1 shilling /point. E.g. 100 bob for 100points. Unless on promotional offers; this is the standard redemption rate for Uchumi U club Points.
Points maybe redeemed at higher rates e.g. during back to school, Christmas and other seasons where Uchumi Supermarkets has announced higher value for points.

Upon redeeming your Uchumi Points, you will be awarded with Uchumi Vouchers with equivalent currency value. You may use Uchumi vouchers to shop or even give them to loved ones as Gift Vouchers. You if you decide to shop with the vouchers, you may pick items of higher value than the vouchers and top-up with alternative means of payment eg cash, M-pesa, Cards etc.

Have fun, redeem your points and buy something fancy
