LOYALTY SCHEMES ARE becoming increasingly ubiquitous in Ireland, and increasingly popular.
Most major supermarkets now offer a loyalty programme, with convenience chain Centra recently launching a scheme too.
But in our Morning Lead, the Irish Council for Civil Liberties (ICCL) warned that the often steep price differences may undermine consumers’ ability to give genuine consent to join loyalty programmes.
“If a person suffered a detriment as a consequence of not consenting to something, there’s a big question mark over whether or not that’s consent,” said the ICCL.
So in today’s poll we want to know, are you signed up to a supermarket loyalty scheme?
