The H&B&Me app sees shoppers not only saving 10% on own-brand products until Wednesday, September 30, but also gaining points for future purchases

There’s no getting away from the fact buying favourite supplements, nutritious snacks and various health-boosting products can put a strain on your purse. However, for those looking to stock up on these wellness essentials, Holland & Barrett has introduced a series of offers designed to help customers cut costs – and when combined with the retailer’s loyalty scheme, shoppers can accumulate points for additional savings.
The loyalty programme – previously known as Rewards for Life – H&B&Me and represents a new app-based system that extends well beyond simply tracking spending. H&B&Me is ‘designed to support you at every step of your wellness journey’.
Through the app, members will not only accumulate points with each transaction made in-store, online or through the app itself, but also gain access to exclusive Member Prices, receive a complimentary birthday gift, and obtain personalised guidance to help users feel their best, as reported by Mirror.
Essentially, H&B&Me combines everyday wellness practices with high-street bargains. The initial purchase as a new H&B&Me member offers a particularly attractive incentive – customers can receive 300 points (£3/€3) with their first transaction.
Much like the Boots Advantage card scheme, for every pound spent subsequently, users will accumulate four points. To redeem savings, shoppers require just 50 points to start.
Furthermore, until Wednesday, September 30, app members can benefit from an extra 10 per cent discount on Holland & Barrett’s own-brand vitamins, herbs, minerals, supplements, as well as fruits, nuts, seeds and snacks in-store, alongside any current promotions.
Customers looking to stock up on vitamins, particularly with winter approaching, can receive 10 per cent off the Holland & Barrett Iron & Vitamin C 14mg 90 Tablets, normally priced at £7.25. This discount can be stacked with the retailer’s existing buy-one-get-one-free promotion, allowing shoppers to obtain the Holland & Barrett Vitamin D3 1000 I.U. 25μg 90 Tablets (£5.59) for free.
Those interested in trying collagen supplements can save £4.99 on the Holland & Barrett Marine Collagen with Vitamin C, typically £49.99, through the app’s 10 per cent discount. Customers have praised the product highly, with one reviewer commenting: “I’ve been taking these for 12 months. I’m 65, and my skin is getting younger every month, very happy.”
Another customer observed: “Great improvement after taking regularly for 12 weeks. Improvement to elasticity in skin, hair and improvement to dry eyes.”
As collagen production naturally decreases with age, incorporating a collagen supplement into one’s diet can support the health of skin, bones, teeth, gums, blood vessels and joints – potentially helping to diminish or delay ageing signs, while also assisting in reducing pain and inflammation.
While this collagen is available in tablet format (180 tablets for £49.99), those preferring a powdered alternative might opt for the Wild Collagen Powder (£27.20), which features Type I hydrolysed marine collagen peptides.
Additionally, Free Soul’s Collagen Glow Powder, priced at £29.99, has gained favour among customers due to its appealing flavours and beneficial ingredients, including Naticol® Marine Collagen, Vitamin C, and Hyaluronic Acid.
For those concerned about the Holland & Barrett app’s ease of use, customers have left glowing testimonials on TrustPilot highlighting how ‘easy’ it is, with one reviewer commenting: “Helpful staff and high quality products with lots of buy one get one free/half price vibes. I found their app the easiest to set up!”
Another observed: “I love the App and website. I like getting the good deals and promos. Easy to use and great products.”
A third customer, who initially struggled to complete a purchase on the website, switched to the app and discovered it functioned ‘seamlessly’. They remarked: “I eventually downloaded the H&B app, where everything went smoothly.
“My order was spot on and didn’t take that long to be delivered, and I was very pleased with the offer I received in order to buy my chosen items.”
A further reviewer noted: “Order on a regular basis from H&B. Never an issue with variety of items; always in stock; prompt delivery. Downloaded the app and made the shopping experience even better!”
While one shopper highlighted a downside regarding delivery times, commenting: “Great app, great products, but slow shipping. If I had known the shipping would take so long, I would have visited a store instead. I absolutely love the products I purchased, but shipping took 10 days” – there’s a solution available through the app’s Click & Collect limited-time promotion.
Until September 30, customers who order online and collect their Click & Collect parcel in store by that date can claim a complimentary gift alongside 10 per cent off their subsequent purchase.
