Nectar programme terms and conditions

Nectar, the UK's largest loyalty programme, has made arrangements with eBay to offer eBay buyers the opportunity to collect Nectar points on eligible items and then convert them to an e-voucher to spend them on items that are purchased on eBay.co.uk using PayPal on check out.

The below terms apply to all eBay users who choose to participate in Nectar on eBay.

1. Collecting Nectar points

To begin collecting Nectar points with eBay you must have a Nectar card. If you don't already have one, just go here and click on Join Nectar.

You must have an eBay.co.uk account, a Nectar account and link the two together. You can then collect Nectar points every time you buy eligible items on eBay.co.uk where the Nectar logo is displayed on the view item page and you check out using PayPal.

You will not collect Nectar points on any transactions that occurred before you linked your eBay.co.uk and Nectar accounts.

You will receive one Nectar point per £1 you spend per item up to a maximum of 5000 Nectar points. If you spend £xx.99, this will be rounded up for the purposes of collecting Nectar points. Anything less will be rounded down. As an example – if you spend £29.99, you will receive 30 Nectar points. If you spend £29.95, you will receive 29 Nectar points.

Please note that points are generally calculated per item not on the total purchase price. For example, if you purchase 3 items in a single transaction worth £4.95 each, you will receive 4 Nectar points for each item for a total of 12 Nectar points.

However, if you buy multiple quantities of the same item from the same seller, the points for those items will be calculated based on the total price. For example if you buy 2 of the same item from the same seller for £5.99 each , the points will be calculated based on a total price of £11.98, and you will receive 11 points.

Nectar points are calculated according to the actual amount spent on the item. Any amount spent on postage & packaging or any taxes not included in the item price will not be taken into consideration.

If items are bought from sellers outside the UK, payment may be subject to a conversion rate. The amount of Nectar points you can collect on such transactions will depend upon the final purchase price paid on PayPal (except any amount spent on postage & packaging or any taxes not included in the item price).Collected Nectar points will be credited to your Nectar account within 28 days of paying for an eligible item.

1.1 Refunds

If you receive a refund for any reason on the purchased items, the awarded Nectar points will be deducted from your Nectar account within 28 days of the refund. Points deductions for refunds of multiple items are calculated on the individual item price.

1.2 Bonus offers

From time to time you may see bonus points displayed on the view item page. This means that you are eligible for a Nectar bonus offer. The bonus points displayed on the view item page are accurate for the respective item only and will be subject to time restrictions.

You will collect the Nectar points and any bonus points when you checkout with PayPal using your linked eBay.co.uk and Nectar accounts.

You can collect up to 5,000 Nectar points per item. This limit also applies to bonus points promotions but is increased in line with the promotion. For example – if you purchase an item for £6,000.00 (and so would collect a maximum of 5,000 base Nectar points) and have a bonus points offer enabling you to collect double Nectar points, you will collect 10,000 Nectar points in total.

There is no cash alternative and the offer is not transferable. Points are awarded to the linked Nectar account within 28 days from the date the item is purchased.

eBay reserves the right to change or cancel any bonus offer promotions at any time, if in eBay's opinion it is necessary for it to do so.

eBay's decision is final in all cases and no communication will be entered into.
