Octopus Energy offers more chances for free coffee rewards with new Monday scratchcard – how it works

If you're an Octopus Energy customer, you can get your hands on more free coffee and other rewards as the supplier is revamping its Octoplus rewards scheme.

Previously, the energy company offered first-come, first-served Monday giveaways.

This is now being replaced with a new weekly scratchcard, giving customers the chance to win prizes throughout the day rather than racing to claim rewards as soon as they are released.

It means you no longer need to set an alarm on Monday mornings to grab popular freebies, such as free coffee vouchers, before they run out.

How does the new Octopus Energy Monday scratchcard work?

From now on, eligible Octoplus members can open the Octopus Energy app every Monday and play a digital scratchcard for the chance to instantly win a prize.

To take part you'll need to make sure your Octopus Energy app is up to date, then simply open the Octoplus section every Monday.

Scratch your digital card before midnight to find out instantly whether you've won.

If you don't win straight away, you'll automatically be entered into a second-chance prize draw for bigger rewards.

The supplier says the new scratchcard gives far more customers the opportunity to win, rather than rewarding only those who happened to log on first.

What prizes can you win?

Octopus says tens of thousands of prizes are up for grabs through the scratchcard every week.

Customers could win:

• Free coffee vouchers

• Free sausage rolls

• Ice pops

• Chocolate bars

• Constantine plushies

• Uber One memberships

• And other surprise rewards

There are also larger prizes available through the second-chance draw, including a luxury holiday for two to Dubrovnik.

How do you get free coffee with Octopus Energy?

Free coffee remains one of the most popular Octoplus rewards.

Instead of claiming a limited number of vouchers as soon as they are released each Monday, customers now have the chance to win one through the weekly scratchcard.

That means you can play at any time on Monday before midnight and win a free coffee, rather than needing to be online the moment rewards become available.

How is Octoplus rewards changing?

Alongside the new Monday scratchcard, Octopus is expanding its rewards programme with new partners and prizes.

This means users can also access offers such as VIP concert tickets, cinema ticket discounts, National Trust day passes, as well as free movie streaming on Rakuten TV.

New brands joining the rewards programme include Lidl, Krispy Kreme, Uber Eats, MUBI and Forest Bikes.

Who can join Octoplus?

The scheme is free for eligible Octopus Energy customers.

If you're an Octopus customer, you can sign up through the Octopus Energy app or your online account. Once enrolled, you'll be able to access weekly scratchcards, earn Octopoints and take advantage of other offers and competitions.
