Plussa-kortti (K-Group Plus Card)
The K-Group loyalty card earning points on purchases at K-Market, K-Supermarket, and K-Citymarket.
The loyalty card of K-Group, Finland's second-largest retail chain, earning points on purchases across K-Group stores.
What it means
Plussa-kortti is the loyalty card for K-Group (Kesko), which operates K-Market, K-Supermarket, K-Citymarket (grocery), K-Rauta (hardware), Intersport, and Budget Sport. Members earn Plussa points on purchases, which can be redeemed for discounts or cashback. Unlike S-Group's cooperative model, K-Group's loyalty program is free to join - there is no membership share. Points are earned at a base rate with additional bonus points through weekly personalized offers. The K-Ruoka app provides digital coupons, shopping lists, and tracks your points balance.
Why it matters for internationals
If K-Group stores are conveniently located near your home or workplace, the Plussa-kortti is worth getting since it is free and immediate. The personalized offers through the K-Ruoka app can provide significant savings on groceries. Many internationals end up with both S-Etukortti and Plussa-kortti, shopping at whichever chain is more convenient. The K-Ruoka app also offers recipes and weekly deals, which can help newcomers discover Finnish food products and plan meals.
