The products that could give you Loyalty Rewards
Loyalty Reward
Receive a £3.50 reward for each of your first two Direct Debit payments, up to £7 each month. You’re eligible for this reward if the Direct Debits are successfully paid from your chosen current account.
Mortgage Loyalty Reward
You can get our £5 monthly Mortgage Reward if you have or take out a personal, residential mortgage with us. You’re only eligible for this reward on one mortgage at any time and it’s not available on our buy-to-let mortgages or staff mortgages taken out before 2003.

The following loans don’t qualify: Professional Career Development, Resolve, any loan products provided by Wealth Management (such as Portfolio Finance), Staff Season Ticket, Staff Career Development and all Staff Loans taken out before September 2013.
You’re only eligible for the Barclayloan Reward
We might stop paying your Barclayloan Reward if you fall behind with your repayments, there are arrears or we write off your loan.
Home Insurance Loyalty Reward
You'll get our Home Insurance Loyalty Reward when you take out or renew any Barclays Home Insurance policy or our Premium Home Insurance that’s provided by Hiscox. You’ll earn 3% cashback on your total annual premium, which will be divided by 12 and paid monthly into your Barclays Blue Rewards wallet.
You need to join Barclays Blue Rewards first, or do so within 30 days of your policy start date, to be eligible for this reward. If you've had your policy for longer than 30 days, you won't be eligible until you renew.
Your rights under your insurance policy won't be affected by receiving the Home Insurance Loyalty Reward.
You’re only eligible for the Home Insurance Loyalty Reward on one policy at any one time. If you hold more than one policy, your reward will be paid against the policy with the highest premium. Any changes you make to your policy that impact your premium before your renewal will be reflected in your Home Insurance Loyalty Reward within 30 days of the change.
This reward is not currently available for Wealth Management clients.

When you renew your home insurance policy, top up your loan, switch rates, borrow more, move house or remortgage from another lender, please check to see what Loyalty Reward you’ll be eligible for with your new mortgage, loan or home insurance policy. Life insurance policies are non-renewable, so the life insurance reward will cease after 12 months.
We might revise your Direct Debit Loyalty Reward, Mortgage Reward or Barclayloan Reward in the future to make sure that the reward remains competitive and reflects changes to our costs over the term of your mortgage, loan or account. We might also add or remove any Product Rewards.
