    I'm on iPhone but almost all loyalty apps allow you to store the card in the Apple Wallet.
    So you need to download the Clubcard app first but you can then add the Clubcard to the Apple Wallet.

    I'd assume the same is possible with Google Wallet.

    All the loyalty cards I regularly use can be added, except Lidl.

    It's now telling me I need to download the klarna app. Is this the best option, or is there something better? The reason I used stocard was it doesn't need an internet connection to work, does klarna?

    Google wallet supports all the loyalty cards that I've got.

    There was another thread on this recently - I use my Google wallet for all my loyalty cards, even those which are otherwise physical only, by taking a photo of the barcode which then gets converted.

    Thanks I originally used google wallet but I think it needed a data/internet connection (which isn't great round where I live), is that not the case now?

    Google Wallet does not need an internet connection in use.
    Obviously you have to have an internet connection when setting up your card(s).

    I let it upgrade to Klarna - it looks virtually the same as Stocard did, and all of my cards copied over automatically.
