Millions of workers can get access to thousands of discounts thanks to the Blue Light Card, and not everyone is taking advantage of the scheme. Here we explain what the Blue Light Card scheme is, who is eligible for it, and what discounts you can get through it.

What is the Blue Light Card?

The Blue Light Card offers exclusive discounts to a range of workers. You can grab discounts on clothes, holidays, insurance and cars. It can be used across thousands of restaurants, high street shops, online brands and attractions.

Overall, Blue Light says there are around 15,000 discounts to choose from. These can be discounts of 5% up to 25% - some companies offer exact amounts off too. For example, as of writing Blue Light members can get £30 off Easyjet holidays.

The Blue Light scheme costs £4.99 to join for two years. To prove you're eligible for the service, you'll need your work ID or a recent payslip. Registration can also take up to seven days. Due to the low cost, the card could pay for itself in just a few purchases.
