Nationwide Building Society is giving current account members £100 million of cashback in supermarkets in its latest cost of living support for members. The 5% cashback applies to both online and in-store spending made using a Nationwide debit card at both large and small supermarkets between February 9 and April 30, 2023.
The cashback is capped at £10 per calendar month, per card, meaning members will receive the monthly maximum by spending £200. Data from Nationwide’s Spending Report shows that supermarkets were the top category for spending during the last year, with members making more than 54 million purchases a month, on average, amounting to around £1 billion.
Members will automatically receive the cashback payment into the account used to make purchases. Those who have provided the Society with their mobile phone number will receive a text alert following the payment.
The cashback offer is part of Nationwide’s drive to support members coping with rising costs. The Society operates a dedicated freephone cost of living hotline (0800 030 40 66), is helping members struggling with overdraft and credit card debt and has streamlined support for those worried about rising rates on their mortgage repayments.
Tom Riley, Director of Retail Products at Nationwide Building Society, said: “Food costs have risen sharply and many households now think carefully about how and where they shop.
“We’re helping members with £10 a month cashback on supermarket spending - just one of the benefits of having a current account with the world’s biggest building society.”
The cashback will also be available to new members opening a current account during this time.

Michael Schneider Variety Editor at Large There aren’t many new print publications being launched in this tough media climate, but the company behind TV Guide Magazine is trying just that. The team behind TV Guide Magazine (owned since 2015 by Michigan-based NTVB Media) have launched a new magazine focused on the TV streaming platforms, hitting newsstands this week. The new monthly magazine, TV Insider, features content from the TV Guide Magazine staff — but jettisons the 70-year-old publication’s listings, instead focusing on more coverage of TV programming. The first issue, which has a March 2023 date, features Kiefer Sutherland (star of Paramount+’s new series “Rabbit Hole,” which premieres March 26) on the cover. Peacock’s breakout hit “Poker Face” star Natasha Lyonne will follow up as the April issue’s cover star.
