Harvey Nichols - Help Rewards (2024)

How do I become a member?
You can join LOYALTY online at harveynichols.com or by downloading the Harvey Nichols app and registering for LOYALTY from your mobile device. The app can be found in the App Store for iPhone or in Google Play Store for Android. Simply search ‘Harvey Nichols’ or find the app in the Lifestyle category of either app store. LOYALTY is free to join.

Where do I find my Member ID?
Locate your Member ID in the LOYALTY section of your MY HN account page on your internet browser or in our Harvey Nichols app. Your Member ID will be featured on your virtual loyalty card.

Is there a physical membership card?
No. Your LOYALTY account, which is available both on harveynichols.com and on our App, contains everything you need, including your virtual card with a barcode. At till point, you can choose to have your barcode scanned from the app or simply share your email address or membership ID to be looked up on the system and have points assigned or redeemed that way instead.

Can I manage my LOYALTY account online?
Yes, simply log on to your LOYALTY account on your chosen device and navigate to the MY HN page. Here you will be able to view an overview of your LOYALTY account and your respective Points, Cash Rewards and Benefits.

Can I sign up using my harveynichols.com login details (MY HN)?
Yes. To sign up to LOYALTY from your account page (MY HN), simply navigate to the ‘Loyalty’ section and select ‘Become a member’. You can do this both on our website or in our new App. Alternatively, when instore, share your registered email address with the shopping assistant at the till point. The shopping assistant can then trigger a set of email communications to your registered email address inviting you to opt-in to our loyalty program. You must opt-in to LOYALTY to join the programme. It is against the law for our shopping assistants to opt your account into loyalty at till-point.

I am a Harvey Nichols VIP. How do I participate in the loyalty program?
You can still join the loyalty program in the same way as everyone else. However, if you hold a VIP card you will be able to earn points and redeem cash rewards, but unable to choose and redeem benefits. If any questions, please contact your Private Shopper or our Customer Service team on +44 (0) 20 7201 8088

Can I use the loyalty program if I’m an international customer?
Yes. You can sign-up to LOYALTY if you are an international customer although you can only currently earn Points in UK stores and on the UK website (harveynichols.com). You can currently only redeem Benefits and/or Points in UK Harvey Nichols stores, bars and restaurants.

Can I purchase through the app?
Yes. The Harvey Nichols app is shoppable.

How do I upgrade my Level?
Your Level is determined by your total spend (GBP) within the Harvey Nichols group including in UK stores (retail, services and hospitality) and our website (harveynichols.com). To reach Level 2, you will need to spend a minimum of £500 in a LOYALTY membership year. For Level 3, you will need to spend a minimum of £2,000 in a LOYALTY membership year. For Level 4, you will need to spend a minimum of £5,000 in a LOYALTY membership year. For Level 5, you will need to spend a minimum of £10,000 in a LOYALTY membership year.

Why has my Level downgraded?
If your total spend does not met the required spend threshold for that Level at the end of a LOYALTY membership year, your Level will subsequently be downgraded in January to reflect your actual level of spend. For example, if in year one you reached Level 3, in year two I will have to spend a total of £2,000-£4,999 to remain in Level 3 in year three.

When does the LOYALTY membership year start/end?
The LOYALTY membership year begins at the start of every calendar year (1 January) and ends on the last day of the calendar year (31 December).

What happens when a LOYALTY membership year ends and a new one begins?
At the start of the new year, you will be invited to reselect your Benefits. With regards to your Level, this will be assigned based on your total spend in the LOYALTY membership year just passed. If your total spend in the past LOYALTY membership year has not reached the qualifying spend threshold for the Level you are currently on, your Level will be downgraded. For example, if you remain on Level 3 at the start and end of a LOYALTY membership year and your total spend that year does not reach the threshold associated with Level 3, you will be downgraded to an appropriate Level matched to your spend in January of the next LOYALTY membership year.

I just received an email from you to say my account has been identified as "inactive" and I am at risk at having my account reset. How do I keep my account "active"?
From time to time, we will identify accounts that are "inactive" based on a set criterion. If your account fits this criteria, we will email you with up to 60 days' notice, announcing that your account has been identified as inactive and is at risk of being reset. To activate your account again, log in and earn points by spending or other actions, such as giving your birthday or updating your preferences before the end of the LOYALTY membership year (31 December). Alternatively, you can contact our Customer Service team on +44 (0) 20 7201 8088

What will happen to my account if it is reset?
If your account is identified as inactive and the period of notice is served without any level of activity on the account, your account will be reset. A reset is where: all Points are reset to 0, the Level is reset to 1 and Benefits are de-selected. Once an account is deactivated, the account can be activated by logging in again, however previous states cannot be resurrected under any circ*mstances.

How do I select a Benefit?

What happens to my Benefits when my Level downgrades?
