Woolworths makes surprising changes to Everyday Rewards Extra program

Ah, the sweet satisfaction of walking into a supermarket, armed to the teeth with loyalty cards and emerging victorious with bags full of discounted goodies that would make any thrifty Aussie shed a tear of joy. But like all good things, sometimes changes appear on the horizon that shake up our shopping strategies. We're here to help you prepare for a few surprising tweaks to the Woolworths Everyday Rewards Extra program!

Launched to great fanfare last year, Woolworths Everyday Rewards Extra promised a tempting array of rewards and discounts for members shelling out an annual subscription fee of $59. Original perks included a 10% discount on one Woolworths and one BIG W shop each month, usable both online and in-store. And if that wasn't enough, the generous 3X points on every shop at Woolworths and BIG W were truly the cherry on top.



Hold onto your shopping trolleys, dear members, as Woolworths has announced that the yearly subscription fee is increasing to $70. And before you ask, yes, there's more: instead of the 3X points you've grown accustomed to, you'll now be receiving a more modest 2X points per shop.

As if these changes weren't enough to ruffle our collective feathers, the popular 10% discount perk is now exclusively available for in-store visits to Woolworths and BIG W. That's right, folks, no more using the discount for online orders. You can bet your bottom dollar that this news has left many members seeing red.

With the changes effective from the 1st of July, 2023, Woolworths has stepped up to address this whirlwind of alterations to its loyalty program. A spokesperson for Everyday Rewards claimed that the program continues to deliver huge benefits to members. In just a year since Everyday Extra's trial period began, early subscribers have saved, on average, $30 a month.



The spokesperson went on to ensure that despite these changes, the program still offers undeniable value: 'From 1 July, Everyday Extra subscribers can still save up to $100 a month with monthly discounts shopping across Woolworths and BIG W, double Everyday Rewards points on their everyday shopping, and Extra Perks including free products.'

To soften the blow, Woolworths is extending an olive branch in the form of three additional months of free access to annual Everyday Extra subscribers. Monthly subscribers, have no fear—you'll receive an extra month of free access too!

While the silver lining of an estimated $360 in yearly savings (excluding the subscription fee) might not phase some Everyday Rewards members, others have voiced their disappointment with these sudden modifications.



Tips for Managing Multiple Loyalty Programs​

Many of us are no strangers to juggling multiple loyalty programs. With the abundance of discount options available, it can be difficult to keep track of the countless offers from each retailer. To make sure you’re always in the know, here are a few tried and tested tips for managing multiple loyalty programs!

Pay Attention To The Terms And Conditions​

Firstly, make sure to keep a close eye on the Terms & Conditions of each loyalty program before you sign up. This will give you an understanding of exactly what you're signing up for and any restrictions associated with discounts or deals. Make sure to ask questions if you encounter any confusing terms or conditions to avoid any nasty legal surprises down the track.



Keep An Eye On Expiration Dates​

It’s also important to keep an eye on expiration dates. Almost all loyalty programs have an expiry date for reward points or discounts, so it’s important to use them before they fade away.

Download The Loyalty Program App​

You’ll also want to be prepared on the go, so consider downloading the loyalty program apps that are associated with retailers you regularly visit. That way, you won’t have to fumble around for cards or wait in line with your wallet at the supermarket.



Shop Sensibly And Within Your Means​

Finally, while it's important to make sure you're making the most of loyalty programs, always remember to shop sensibly and within your means. Don't stock up on items just because they are discounted—stick to your shopping list and stock up on only the items you need! It may seem simple, but following these steps will ensure you always get the most out of your loyalty programs.

Key Takeaways
  • Woolworths supermarket has made three major changes to its Everyday Rewards Extra program, including increasing the subscription fee, reducing the points earned per shop, and restricting the 10 per cent discount to in-store purchases only.
  • The changes have prompted an angry reaction from many Everyday Rewards Extra members, especially those who relied on the discount for online orders.
  • Despite the negative feedback, a Woolworths spokesperson emphasised that the program still offers considerable benefits and savings for its members.
  • Existing Everyday Extra annual subscribers will receive three months of additional free access on their current plan, and monthly subscribers will receive an additional month free.


Surely, we are no strangers to adapting when times change, and our shopping isn't any different! As we roll with the punches, let's remember to stay on the lookout for the best discounts and offers, both in-store and online.

So keep an eye on the changes rolling out from July 1 2023.

Woollies has also changed the delivery saver from 1 July 2023. You used to have to only spend $50 in one shop now you are going to have to pay $75 in one shop. They are making it really tough on the little guy:mad:
And now we are demanded payment for our bags. Very disappointing, Woolworths, especially since you are the most lucrative store of the big 3.
