Tesco introduces subscription service for online deliveries
Tesco is introducing a new subscription service for customers ordering groceries online.
The Delivery Saver service, which launches nationwide today, offers the supermarket’s online customers the option to pay once and have groceries delivered at no extra cost for either a three-month or a six-month period.
Tesco claims that shoppers signing up for six months could save up to £100 on delivery charges, based on one £6 delivery per week and one extra delivery for a special occasion.
Ken Towle, internet retailing director at Tesco, explained: “We listened to what our customers told us they wanted, and Delivery Saver is the result. It’s simple to use and will save money at a difficult time for many families. Customers can choose from all available delivery slots, so shopping arrives at the most convenient time. Best of all, if you get regular home deliveries it will quickly pay for itself – and the more you use the service, the more you save.”
Tesco said the nationwide roll-out of Delivery Saver follows a successful trial with its customers in the South West, covering 37 stores.
