Absa and the Shoprite Group have announced a new rewards partnership, with customers potentially earning up to 60% back for a limited time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Absa Rewards members can now earn real cash back when shopping at Shoprite, Checkers, Checkers Hyper, LiquorShop or online via Sixty60.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Eligible spend made with qualifying Absa debit or credit cards earns up to 60% back during the two-month launch promotion from 16 August to 15 October 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
From 16 October 2025, customers earn up to 30% back, depending on the customer\u2019s Rewards Tier. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The cashback is automatic, paid monthly, and can be used, saved, or reinvested according to the client\u2019s needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPartnering with the Shoprite Group allows us to bring rewards even closer to how people live, putting money back in their pockets when they buy groceries, essentials, and everyday items,\u201d said Alicia Raynard, Executive: Absa Rewards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt\u2019s part of our broader ambition to turn transactional banking into a platform for real value.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shoprite and Checkers are among the most accessible supermarkets in South Africa, with a combined footprint of 1,800 locations nationwide, which Absa said makes them the ideal partners. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Purchases at Shoprite and Checkers already represent the highest category of spend among Absa customers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Spending data also showed that delivery services, led by Checkers Sixty60, are among the fastest-growing categories for Rewards users. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The smaller baset sizes on Checkers Sixty60 also point to frequent, high-convenience usage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Customers can register for Absa Rewards via the Absa Banking App and earn cashback immediately. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
All purchases made at Shoprite, Checkers, Checkers Hypers, LiquorShop and Sixty60 count towards the monthly spend cap for cashback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since its inception, Absa Rewards has paid over R6.6 billion, with one customer even becoming a rewards millionaire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Absa said that customers use the cashback to cover school supplies, lunchbox snacks, fuel and airtime, while others put the amount into savings for emergencies and larger life goals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
