Tesco Waives Whoosh Delivery Fees for One Week

The supermarket seeks to boost short‑notice orders by removing fees on Whoosh orders over £25 to appeal to shoppers ahead of World Cup matches.

Overview

  • The promotion begins Thursday, June 11 and runs through Wednesday, June 17, automatically removing Whoosh delivery charges for orders of £25 or more.
  • Customers do not need a promo code; the discount is applied at checkout and is shown on the order receipt for eligible orders.
  • Whoosh is Tesco’s on‑demand rapid grocery service, launched nationally in 2021, that can deliver items from local stores in as little as 20 minutes.
  • Tesco has reported strong Whoosh growth — about a 50% year‑on‑year sales rise in a cited period and more than 250,000 new customers — meaning hundreds of thousands could benefit from the offer.
  • The week‑long deal is designed to meet last‑minute shopping needs such as hosting or sport‑viewing supplies and may push rivals to increase short‑notice delivery promotions as rapid services compete for convenience‑focused shoppers.
