Nationwide, the world's largest building society, is anticipated to distribute its latest 'fairer share' bonus of £100 to millions of customers in 2026. This initiative has been a staple for the society for the past three years, providing lump sum payments to members who meet specific criteria. Those interested in receiving the bonuses are being advised to get informed about the qualifying requirements now, especially as the potential distribution in June and qualifying conditions through March 31.

In previous years, including 2023 to 2025, Nationwide announced the details of its bonus scheme in May, with actual payments released in June. The uptake and distribution of funds have demonstrated a significant reach, with approximately £400 million allocated to four million members in 2025 alone. The scheme aims to reward loyal customers and enhance financial inclusion, reflecting Nationwide’s commitment to providing fair financial services.

As the March deadline approaches, financial advisors like Martin Lewis from Money Saving Expert (MSE) are advocating for members to maximize their opportunities for the bonus. The timing is key; understanding the terms and becoming eligible for the payment now could lead to improved benefits for members, illustrating the importance of proactive financial participation in customer loyalty initiatives.
