No, you cannot pay for petrol with Nectar points in the UK. You can only use Nectar points to get a discount on fuel, not to pay for it outright. You can get a discount of 5p per litre if you swap 300 Nectar points at participating Esso service stations. You can also use Nectar points to get discounts on other goods and services, such as groceries, clothes, and travel.
The Esso-Nectar Partnership
Esso has partnered with the Nectar Loyalty Programme to offer customers greater value for their journey. In a unique approach, Nectar points can be utilised not just for collecting rewards but also for making everyday journeys more affordable. By swapping 300 Nectar points, customers can receive a 5p discount on every litre of fuel.
To start earning Nectar points, simply present your Nectar card, key tag, or the Nectar app during your purchase at participating Esso stations. For each litre of Esso Synergy™ fuel, you can earn 1 Nectar point. Additionally, 2 Nectar points can be earned per pound spent on car wash, lubricants, or shop products at these stations.
