About RAC Breakdown cover
You can buy both personal based and vehicle-based cover

Vehicle breakdown cover means your vehicle is covered no matter who is driving. You can cover up to 3 vehicles registered to the same address on the same policy.
Personal cover
Personal breakdown cover means you’re covered in any vehicle as a driver or passenger. You can cover up to 5 people from the same household on the same policy.

Yes – this is possible and works well when you have enough Tesco Clubcard points to cover the full cost of the cover. Please be aware, if you need to top-up your points using a credit/debit card, the person who will be covered by the policy will need to be asked to provide credit or debit card details to complete the payment. The card details won’t be retained, and the cover won’t automatically renew next year. Instead we will write to the policy holder 6 weeks before the renewal date with renewal options including how to pay for another year with Clubcard points.
