Lidl Plus Switzerland: How It Works and Is It Worth It?
Lidl Plus is the free, fully digital loyalty app from Lidl Switzerland, with no plastic card. It combines digital coupons with a points scheme called Lidl Punkte: per lidl.ch you earn one point per franc spent, and from 35 points you can swap them for a free product or a discount from over 250 rewards. It is not a money-back scheme like Cumulus or Supercard, it is coupon and reward based. Worth it mainly if you already shop at Lidl regularly.

Updated regularly. Lidl Plus is the digital loyalty app from Lidl Switzerland, and since September 2024 it has run its own points scheme. According to the official Lidl Switzerland press release (corporate.lidl.ch, 2 September 2024), Switzerland is the first Lidl country in the world to roll out collectible points in Lidl Plus nationwide. Rappn is neutral and has no agreement with Lidl or any other retailer. This guide only explains how the system works, for this week's actual promotion prices, compare the seven chains in the Rappn app.
How does Lidl Plus work in Switzerland?
Lidl Plus is fully digital. There is no plastic card like the Migros Cumulus card or the Coop Supercard: you download the app, create an account, and scan the code from the app at the till when you pay. That applies your activated coupons and credits your Lidl points. There are two core mechanics to understand.
| Feature | What it means (as of June 2026) |
|---|---|
| Digital loyalty card | Fully digital, no plastic card. Scan the app code at the till. |
| Digital coupons | Activate in the app before shopping, then redeem at the checkout. |
| Lidl points | CHF 1 spent = 1 point (per lidl.ch). |
| Rewards | Over 250 rewards, first redemption from 35 points (Lidl Switzerland press release). |
| Point validity | Points are redeemable for two years from when you earn them (lidl.ch). |
| Digital receipts | Every receipt is stored in the app. |

Welcome
Lidl points: what does the scheme actually give you?
You earn one Lidl point per franc spent, per lidl.ch. Once you have collected enough, you can swap them at any time for a coupon of your choice. The first reward is available from 35 points according to the official Lidl Switzerland press release, and the catalogue holds over 250 rewards. You choose between a free product and a monetary discount. Per lidl.ch the points are valid for two years from when you earn them, and they can also be redeemed for selected partner offers such as Bild+, Disney+ or DYN.
One thing matters for comparing programmes: Lidl points are not a money-back scheme. Cumulus (Migros) and Supercard (Coop) credit you vouchers or points close to a fixed franc value. With Lidl Plus you swap points for specific rewards or coupons, so the effective value depends on the reward you pick. If you want to see how Migros and Coop handle their loyalty programmes, the direct Migros versus Coop price comparison is a useful read.
Data and privacy: what does Lidl Plus collect?
Like any loyalty app, Lidl Plus runs on your shopping data. According to Lidl's data-protection notices, this includes the store you visited, the products you bought by type, quantity and price, the coupons you redeemed and the time of payment. That data is used to show you relevant coupons and offers. If you would rather not share it, you can skip the app and still shop at Lidl at the regular price, though you lose the loyalty perks. Always check the current privacy statement on lidl.ch.
A practical note: Lidl Plus only ever shows you the benefits inside Lidl. Whether Aldi, Denner, Migros or Coop has a given product on offer this week too is not visible in the app. Rappn gives you that cross-chain view of the deals, neutrally and for free.
Is Lidl Plus worth it? Our honest verdict
Lidl Plus is free and makes sense if you already shop at Lidl regularly: points and coupons add up in real terms. If you only drop into Lidl occasionally, or you value keeping your data minimal, you get less from it. And for the genuinely best choice each week, a single chain app is never enough. Compare the deals from all seven major retailers this week in the Rappn app, free and with no advertising deal with any chain. That way you keep the Lidl Plus perk and still see which chains have your products on offer right now. Also see this week's Lidl deals and the best grocery deals of the week.
