Fuel Discounts: 

How do I redeem My Challenge fuel discounts?

Our friendly Challenge staff will simply scan your card when you're in store and will apply the relevant fuel discount to your transaction. If you don't have your card on you, just let the cashier know your email address and they can search for your account.

What's the difference between a fuel discount and Points?

A fuel discount is a cents per litre discount on eligible fuel purchases. Points are what you earn for all eligible purchases at participating Challenge stores, and can be redeemed for specified rewards when you reach the Points balance for that reward.

What is the fuel discount I'll receive with My Challenge?

Standard card holders receive an everyday fuel discount of 6 cents per litre. SuperGold and Grey Power customers receive a minimum everyday fuel discount of 8 cents per litre (some South Island stores offer more). There is no minimum spend requirement, however the discount only applies to a maximum of 100 litres.

What is the maximum amount of fuel I can redeem my fuel discounts for?

The maximum amount of fuel that qualifies for a My Challenge fuel discount is 100 litres.

Can I use multiple fuel discounts at the same time?

At this stage stacking fuel discounts is not possible. However once you have earned enough Points you can redeem them for a $5 My Challenge fuel discount which can be used at the same time as redeeming your everyday fuel discount.

Can I use the fuel discounts on all types of fuel?

You can use your My Challenge fuel discount on Diesel, 91 and 95 fuel grades.

Points: 

What is the earn rate for My Challenge Points?

You'll earn 1 point for every $1 spent at any participating Challenge retailer.

Do My Challenge fuel discounts or Points expire?

Everyday fuel discounts do not expire, however Points expire after a 12 month period. 

Like most rewards programmes, My Challenge Points expiry 12 months after the points were first issued. This is because reward programme points are considered a financial liability. However if you shopped with us in the preceding six-month period, your expired Points will automatically be reinstated and valid for a further 12 months.

Why do some Points get subtracted when I purchase fuel?

These negative points are the points that relate to the discount given for fuel. It’s an accounting thing where the point of sale system has to give the full amount of points for the full transaction, and then the system removes the points issued for the discounted portion.
