Vela – Free £5 to £20 in Points for Your First Receipt

Overview

Vela is a free UK rewards app from Reeset.Earth Limited that gives you points on everyday shopping — food, drink, beauty and household products from any retailer — by scanning your receipts. New members who join with the invite code on this page and scan their first receipt receive a welcome bonus of 5,000, 10,000 or 20,000 points, worth £5, £10 or £20 in gift cards.

How to Claim

1. Click the link on this page to download the Vela app.
2. Sign up and enter the invite code shown on this page when prompted.
3. Complete your profile in the app.
4. Scan your first receipt — any shopping receipt works.
5. Your welcome bonus of 5,000–20,000 points (£5–£20) lands in your account.

Requirements

• UK resident, new Vela accounts only.
• The invite code must be entered at sign-up — it can't be added afterwards.
• You need to complete all three steps (sign-up, profile, first receipt scan) to trigger the bonus.

Important Terms

• The bonus amount (5,000, 10,000 or 20,000 points) is randomly assigned.
• Gift-card redemptions start at 5,000 points (£5) — retailers include Tesco, Waitrose, John Lewis, Argos and Boots, with Uber, Sainsbury's and others from 10,000 points.
• Vela is free to use, but the free plan has limits: one voucher redemption a day and up to £15 in vouchers (subject to limits). The optional Vela Plus subscription (£5.99/month) raises these limits and doubles points — it isn't needed to claim the welcome bonus.
• Receipts must be itemised, from your own purchases and no more than 14 days old; each receipt can only be submitted once.

Tips

• Connect your email after signing up so digital receipts are collected automatically — points build in the background with zero effort.
• Healthier and more responsible products earn bonus points, so your regular supermarket shop can add up quickly.
• Redeem at 5,000 points for a supermarket gift card rather than saving for bigger rewards if you want value out fast — on the free plan you can only redeem one voucher a day.
