After seeing this comment by konfusd, I decided to do a bit of digging.

I then came accross 'The Warehouse Group FY21 Annual Results (29/9/21)'. Powerpoint here

(p11) "We have confirmed the rollout of a unified loyalty programme across the Group as “Market Club” and “Market Club+.”

I also just got this email:

"From tomorrow, giveit is taking a short break while we make some changes and put the finishing touches on our updated programme. We’ll be sure to keep you in the loop and let you know when the new programme is up and running.  

In the meantime, you can continue to shop with The Warehouse in the app, online and in-store – just without giveit.”

    In addition to growing our existing loyalty programmes - myNoelLeeming, Torpedo7 Club, TheMarket Club, and BizRewards – we have successfully launched an app-first loyalty programme trial in The Warehouse.

    We have now confirmed the rollout of a unified loyalty programme across the Group, to be named Market Club, which will include both a free and a subscription offer, with subscriptions offering unlimited free shipping on millions of items. This will evolve to integrate all existing programmes, giving even more benefit and utility to our customers, with the rollout starting this calendar year.

    We have initiated a unified Group loyalty programme – Market Club and Market Club+ which is starting to rollout with TheMarket.com and The Warehouse this calendar year. By consolidating nearly four million unique customer records across our existing loyalty programmes into a single programme, we will be able to deliver more engaging experiences for our customers and suppliers, powered by strong insights and a data-driven understanding of our customers’ needs, wants and shopping preferences.

    Interesting thanks for sharing - hopefully means that the unified Market codes will start to improve as they have been disappointing of late.

  • codiuscube on 01/10/2021 - 18:45

    So… I had a 30% coupon from Giveit I was going to use today. I don't see it anymore. Reckon the program is over?

  • Kiwi on 01/10/2021 - 19:58

    Looks like they are going to start integrating "Marketplace" stores into their other stores, so The Warehouse will list products sold by Grabstore and The Sleep Store for example. I guess like Kogan and their many shopfronts.

    Which would make a unified "loyalty" scheme make sense. GiveIt was just a test with some incentive for people to actually use it and provide them the data they needed to know whether an "App First" program would be viable. Expect to see something watered down once it is released later in the month, but probably wider ranging in it's discounts. Could end up with something like "10% off bath towels across all TWL and marketplace stores for The Market Club+ members".

    • Alan6984 on 08/10/2021 - 15:32

      Do you think that means that all the existing memberships are now cancelled and we'll have to re-join (and pay)?

      It gives me that impression, but I'm not seeing anything explicit?

      Thanks,

      Alan.

      • Wakrak on 08/10/2021 - 15:34

        Not too sure yet. Wondering what happens with the Vodafone deal. I just found The Warehouse version and images make it look like giveit with a paint job.

      Isn't it just 'Lorem ipsum'?

      Am I missing something (as always!)

      • Wakrak on 08/10/2021 - 16:20

        You've taught me something new. Never heard of that concept before and it looks like it is.

          Next you'll be telling us you've never used Aldus PageMaker?

  • [Deactivated] on 08/10/2021 - 16:33

    I hope this isn't the end of free click & collect from The Warehouse, Noel Leeming etc. In Dunedin if I buy something from The Warehouse through The Market I'm charged a collection fee if I want to pick it up, but if I buy the same product through The Warehouse Online I'm not.

    I look at it this way, the site with the current paid subscription service charges for services that the sites without a current paid subscription service offer for free, and now those sites are also getting a paid subscription service, that makes me concerned.

    • Kiwi on 08/10/2021 - 17:29

      I'd guess that they'll do free click and collect across the board if you are part of the free teir of Market Club and free shipping if you are part of the paid teir.

      • Alan6984 on 08/10/2021 - 23:00

        Free shipping, up to now, has required a $45 spend I believe, so hardly ever free from that perspective.

        I used to purchase from TheMarket a while back, but then they stopped letting me collect it for free from TWL at Botany, so I stopped purchasing from TheMarket.

        • Kiwi on 09/10/2021 - 03:29

          You are right, "free" would be more accurate. I don't imagine The Warehouse stop giving out monthly free shipping codes though, they've done that for many years now: https://www.cheapies.nz/node/200

          Yea, I only purchase from there if it's over the $45 shipping amount and a better deal to elsewhere, which has been few and far between lately. Maybe they'll give it a marketing shove after the club rework.

          • Alan6984 on 09/10/2021 - 11:20

            @Kiwi: Unfortunately, you can't use the TWL Free Shipping Codes on TheMarket (or not that I know of - would love to be wrong about that).

            However, much of the time, the prices seem to be the same or off by a few cents (I seem to recall $X.99 at one and $X.97 at the other more than once).

            Maybe this whole revamp will finally fix the mess that they have gotten into over the last five / ten years with so many competing and conflicting brands.

            Alan.

  • Wakrak on 19/10/2021 - 07:06

    They've updated the FAQ section that I posted above from The Market: link here

    Most importantly for us on the Vodafone deal:

    If you're already a member of Monthly or Annual TheMarket Club, your membership will automatically become a MarketClub+ subscription and you'll enjoy all of your existing and new benefits. Your monthly or annual payments will continue as usual.

  • TheDealMan on 20/10/2021 - 08:10

    I've now got a handful of Market Club offers in The Warehouse app. Looks to be a re-skin of the GiveIt Programme.

    • Kiwi on 20/10/2021 - 08:12

      Even the loading animation is the same, and the history is still there. Literally a reskin. Not complaining though, it was a pretty good way to save money.

      ooo i wonder is this means that warehouse codes can be use in conjunction with market codes when purchasing on themarket in future

      Thanks - How on earth do you find these things??

      I might have missed it, but I'm fairly sure I haven't had anything from TheMarket asking me to do that.

      Alan.

      • Wakrak on 20/10/2021 - 12:06

        The Market tends to put a lot of their current and future offers on this page
        https://themarket.com/nz/precincts?page=1

        Alternatively, they will update their terms & conditions page, which is where I find their 5%, 10%, $5 off etc offers before they appear on the home screen.
        https://help.themarket.com/hc/en-us/articles/360023595854-Cu…

        Going back to the first link: I keep an eye on the first and last pages to see if anything has been added. Yesterday, page 10 only had three items on it. Today it has six, so I go through and figure out what has been added.

        Feel free to bookmark those links and post their new offers before I get to em.

    • L3tstaxth1s on 20/10/2021 - 13:52

      So do we have to effectively reapply? I haven't been asked yet and my Market app still shows active MarketClub membership through to 2025…

        I donnnnt think so. The email from The Market suggests that it’s a smooth transition.

  • Dunno on 20/10/2021 - 12:55

    Marketclub just sent me a unique $10 off $50 code via email valid until Nov 9th and mention a birthday present if you add the date to your profile, anyone know what that is?

    • Wakrak on 20/10/2021 - 12:57

      You could post as a deal if you were motivated enough.

      [Targeted] $10 off $50 Spend @ The Market (Existing Members)

    • wowbigdeal on 20/10/2021 - 22:24

      The birthday gift is $5.00 off $5.01 spend with about a month to use it. It can not be stacked.

  • Wakrak on 20/10/2021 - 12:55

    Yeah just got the $10 offer too. Good start!

    I imagine it would a similar voucher.

    Just checked my The Market account.

    10 year offer. Not bad.

    • Alan6984 on 26/10/2021 - 09:40

      Mine's the same - not a special specifically for Wakrak :-)

      • Wakrak on 26/10/2021 - 12:31

        I spoke too soon. My subscription has been removed! Not too sure what's going on there. My other account is good until 2026.

        • Alan6984 on 26/10/2021 - 13:47

          Mine is still showing as 2032 - maybe it is retribution :-P

  • Wakrak on 28/11/2021 - 16:11

    Wonder when MarketClub will be extended to the other stores within The Warehouse Group.
