If you’ve been sitting on Tesco Clubcard points, now’s the time to make them work harder.Virgin Atlantic and Tesco Clubcard have brought back their auto-exchange bonus, and it’s one of the easiest ways to earn a quick 5,000 Virgin Points. This is one of those limited-window Virgin Atlantic offers that you’ll kick yourself for missing.
Sign up to auto-exchange your Clubcard points into Virgin Points for the first time by 19 October, and you’ll receive a 5,000-point bonus on top of your usual conversion.
How to Convert Tesco Clubcard Points into Virgin Points
Step-by-Step: Virgin Atlantic Auto-Exchange Setup
You’ll get 2 Virgin Points for every 1 Clubcard point, and once you’re set up, every future batch of Clubcard points will automatically convert into Virgin Points.
Follow these steps to set up auto-exchange:
Log in to your Tesco Clubcard account.
Go to “Clubcard Management.”
Select “Voucher Schemes.”
Choose Virgin Points.
Enter your Virgin Red ID (found in the Personal Details section of your Virgin Red account). If you haven't signed up for a Virgin Red account, its free and use my link below.
Make sure you have at least 250 Clubcard points before 19 October 2025.
That’s it, your Clubcard points will automatically convert into Virgin Points, and if you’re a first-time auto-exchanger, you’ll get the 5,000-point bonus by mid-November.
My Experience Using Virgin Points for Flights
I’m writing this update from New York, where I booked my Virgin Atlantic Premium Economy ticket using 10500 Virgin Points, 5,000 from my April auto-exchange, 1,000 from regular Tesco shops, and another 5,000 from referring friends and family to Virgin Red (it’s currently 2,000 points per referral, use my referral link below.)
