Your New Favourite Way to Save 🎉

Say hello to Student Perks, the latest launch from SUBTV, created just for students who love saving. Whether you’re shopping for food, fashion, tech, travel or just trying to make your loan stretch a little further, Student Perks gives you instant discounts through prepaid gift cards from big-name retailers.

It’s simple. It’s smart. And it’s seriously affordable.

‍

‍

đź’Ą Step 1: Explore Deals

We’ve done the hard work and hand-picked 100s of exclusive student offers across your favourite categories. Think fashion, food, tech, travel, and more. Once you’ve built your profile, you’ll get personalised deals based on what you love. It’s basically your dream discount feed.

đź’¸ Step 2: Buy a Gift Card

Found a deal that catches your eye? Nice. Just choose how much you want to load on to your gift card for that brand. You can pay by debit/credit card or (for max savings) go with Open Banking, no platform fees = bigger discount for you. As soon as you buy, your gift card is stored in your Student Perks Wallet, ready to roll.

🛍 Example: A £100 gift card with 20% off? You’ll only pay £80 and you’ve got the full £100 to spend.

📲 Step 3: Activate & Redeem

Ready to use it? Just tap Activate in your wallet. It only takes a sec and links your gift card to the retailer, so it is ready to spend in-store or online (pro tip: always check retailer terms before purchasing, in case it can only be used online)

Changed your mind? No stress. You’ve got 14 days to request a refund (as long as the gift card hasn’t been activated in the SUBTV APP).

⚡ Step 4: Boosted Perks & More

Here’s where it gets even better with Boosted Perks. These are time-limited mega-deals that drop throughout the day (look out for the 'SP' icon on SUBTV screens), as these give you an even bigger discount than usual. They’re tailored to your shopping habits, as well as matched with our SUBTV advertisers - so keep an eye out.

⏳ You’ll have 10 minutes to grab your Boosted Perk before it disappears: they refresh every 15 minutes!

Student Perks is all about giving you more for less, with zero faff. Whether you’re buying essentials or treating yourself, it’s the smarter way to shop.

Now go forth and save. You’ve got this. 💪
