Professional Discounts: Cashback & Exclusive Savings For Every Step of Your Career

TOTUM isn't just for students anymore. Our TOTUM membership is a dedicated discount platform for the UK workforce. It allows trade union members, professional body members, and charity workers to access the same massive savings usually reserved for students—helping your hard-earned salary go much further.

You can join the TOTUM community if you are a member of a Trade Union (like UNISON or NEU), a Professional Body (like RICS or CIM), a Charity Worker, or an Academic/Support staff member at a school or university. If you are a part-time learner studying for a professional qualification, you’re in too! To get started, register at https://app.totum.com/. When asked for your organisation name, please either select one of the teachers’ unions (NEU, NASUWT, UCU), or if you’re not a union member, enter TOTUM Teachers.

TOTUM Free is a digital-only version giving you access to hundreds of online deals. TOTUM+ (£14.99) is our "Salary Stretch" edition. It includes a physical card for in-store use, access to the TOTUM Cashback card (earn up to 14% back), a free government-approved PASS ID, and international discount recognition.

This is a game-changer for household budgeting. As a TOTUM+ member, you get a pre-pay card that earns you up to 14% cashback when you shop at over 80 major retailers, including Sainsbury’s, Asda, M&S, Waitrose, IKEA, and John Lewis. Most members recoup their £14.99 fee through cashback alone in just a few weeks.

Verification is quick and secure. You can use your work email address (.gov.uk, .org.uk, etc.), enter your Professional Body/Union membership number, or simply upload a photo of your staff ID or a recent payslip. We’ll have you verified and ready to save in no time.

Trade union members get full access to the TOTUM suite. Beyond the high-street discounts, you can save on "big-ticket" life items like home insurance, car maintenance at Halfords, and major tech upgrades from Apple and Samsung, ensuring your union membership delivers even more value.

Yes! Depending on your role, you can opt for an International Teacher Identity Card (ITIC) or, if you’re under 35, an International Youth Travel Card (IYTC). These grant you professional recognition and over 150,000 discounts in 90+ countries—perfect for saving on hotels and car rentals for your next holiday.

Absolutely. We offer significant discounts on tech from Apple, Samsung, and Dell, as well as savings on stationery and supplies at Ryman. If you’re a part-time learner, these "education-tier" savings can save you hundreds on the equipment you need for your studies.

Definitely. The free 18+ PASS ID included with TOTUM+ is a legally recognised proof-of-age card. It’s a great way to keep your passport or driving licence safe at home while still having a valid, government-backed ID for travel or evening social events.

We think so, and our members agree. The average TOTUM+ member saves £550 per year. When you combine the grocery cashback, the tech discounts, and travel savings, the membership doesn't just pay for itself—it essentially acts as a mini-pay rise for your pocket.
