Lidl Launches National Shell Fuel-Voucher Draw Tied to Lidl Plus

The campaign serves as customer acquisition dressed as fuel relief.

Overview

  • Lidl, which opened the draw Monday, is offering 33,000 Shell fuel vouchers worth €150 each through Saturday, for a total near €5 million.
  • Entry requires activating a coupon in the Lidl Plus app and spending at least €50 in a store during the promotion window.
  • A separate Lidl Plus offer this week gives a €5 coupon after a €40 shop through Saturday, redeemable on purchases from €50 between April 26 and May 2.
  • Partner perks follow next: Lidl Plus users get 3 cents off per liter at Shell from April 27 to May 31 and 25% off Shell Recharge power starting May 1.
  • Reactions are split, with praise for savings and pushback over the €50 hurdle and data sharing, as marketers label the draw a traffic play and Trigema counters with roughly €0.20-per-liter lower pump prices at its stations.
