Tesco shoppers have just under four weeks left before its Clubcard app closes for good.

The app lets you scan a digital version of your Clubcard, as well as view and spend your vouchers.

But the supermarket has confirmed its Clubcard app will shut on April 18.

Shoppers will have to instead download the revamped Tesco Grocery & Clubcard app, if they want to keep using a digital version of their Clubcard.

This is free to download on Android and iPhone.

It comes after Tesco closed down its Pay+ app on February 27.

This app lets you store your credit or debit card and Clubcard details - a function that is now available on the Tesco Grocery & Clubcard app.

Tesco customers can still scan their physical Clubcard at the tills as normal.

A spokesperson from Tesco said: "Bringing the functionality of Tesco Pay+ into the Tesco Grocery & Clubcard app is a demonstration of our focus on providing products which closely align to the needs of Tesco shoppers."

The news comes after Tesco announced it will give store workers a 7% pay rise, in what will be the third increase in ten months.

The supermarket reached an agreement with the Union of Shop, Distributive and Allied Workers ( USDAW ) and will increase the hourly pay rate by 72p.

This will take the hourly wage of a store worker from £10.30 to £11.02 and staff see the pay rise from April 2.

Tesco said the increase in hourly pay will represent an investment of more than £230million.

As part of the pay deal with the Usdaw, Tesco will also increase its “additional skills payment” for shift leaders by an extra 40p to £2.26.

This will bring their hourly wage up to £13.28.

Tesco has also expanded its same-day delivery service Whoosh to 800 stores.

The delivery service, which was first launched in 2021 and expanded to 600 stores last year, aims to get groceries to you between 30 minutes to an hour after ordering them.

It costs £2.99 per delivery, with an extra charge of £2 added if your order is under £15.
