Does anyone know, when using the Asda credit card if you still need to scan the Asda Rewards App to earn rewards? 
 
I've got the rewards app but keep forgetting to find my phone and open the app to scan it at checkout, I still pay with plastic as my phone doesn't have NFC. 

You could print the rewards barcode and keep it with your payment card. 

You could even cut it down to credit card size and laminate it.

That relies on that barcode never changing. The reason they're not issuing physical cards AIUI is that the code will change at least once in the near future when they move from Wal-Mart's POS setup to their own internal solution.

Make a new card if the barcode changes in the future.  If someone doesn't have their phone handy when checking out then they're only going to miss out once when using an out of date physical card compared to missing out every time.

Asda are not alone in not issuing physical cards, Subway I think is app only. Maybe Superdrug, Starbucks and Costa too?

You'll also need the app to access any vouchers now too, thinking about it.

Physical Superdrug cards are still a thing and any Starbucks gift card can be added to your Starbucks Rewards account and used as a physical reward card.

You're right though, it is the way things are going.

Does anyone know if Jaja do a hard search when you try to increase your credit limit?
Most banks don't but some do and I'd like to know for sure.

Regarding my previous post - No one knows?

Some of you must already have Jaja and perhaps someone tried to increase their limit?

May have a better response if you create a separate discussion asking same question.

I doubt many are clicking on this one now, by lack of comments/discussion, despite the 3.2k views since creation.
