NUS Extra is the definitive student discount card with a range of exclusive discounts, offers and competitions designed to make student life more exciting, more memorable and more rewarding.

So why should you buy an NUS Extra card I hear you cry? Read on to find out why the little blue card is a must-have for student life...

How do I get one?

The important thing is you have to be a current student, so if you’re studying at the moment and you want to apply online now for your card, you just need a credit or debit card and a photo on your PC that you can upload to our site.

Exclusive discounts

We’ve got discounts on the essential things in life and some great savings on life’s little luxuries as well. From Amazon, Ticketmaster and Play to AA Driving School,  Topshop, Warehouse, Superdrug and McDonalds, you really can save wherever you spend your money.

All of our discounts are exclusive to NUS Extra cardholders, so you won’t be able to access any of these great deals without our little blue card.

The benefits

A range of specially negotiated exclusive discounts, offers and competitions have been created for NUS Extra cardholders. We think you’ll be quite impressed with the money you could save with your NUS Extra card.

We constantly update our offers and add new ones, and we make sure that there are loads of very exciting prizes and extra special bits up for grabs throughout the year.

Your students' union benefits too!

Your students’ union also benefits from card sales, as nearly £5 of the £10 you pay goes back to it so it can invest in more services, activities, clubs and events for you. So buying the card helps you out even more!

How long does it last?

The NUS Extra is valid between 1st August 2009 and 30th August 2010 so there’s loads of time to save cash with your card.
