Domino’s Pizza Group runs and licenses Domino’s pizza stores in the UK and Ireland, under an agreement with Domino’s Pizza International.
What you get
EQ lists the UK-listed Domino’s Pizza Group for dividend-funded shopping vouchers. The extra value varies by retailer; you give up the cash you exchange. Domino’s names Equiniti as registrar but does not mention EQ Boost on its advisers page.
What it takes
The published terms do not state a minimum shareholding.
You spend your own dividend money. Choosing EQ Boost replaces the dividend instruction Equiniti holds for that holding, including any dividend reinvestment or scrip instruction. The whole dividend goes to EQ Boost, and you cannot top up the account with other money.
Before buyingA perk is a minor benefit of owning a share, not a reason to buy one. Share prices fall as well as rise, and dealing costs, spreads and tax can exceed a perk’s value. Read about the risks.
Holding through a broker
EQ excludes ordinary broker nominees and generally allows company-sponsored nominees. Domino’s Pizza Group names Equiniti as registrar but does not confirm a sponsored nominee route for EQ Boost. Ask Equiniti how your holding is registered.
Other conditions
- Age and residency
- You must be over 18. EQ’s terms appear to limit the service to UK residents; if you live elsewhere, ask Equiniti before you apply.
- Excluded holders
- Corporate shareholders; executors and administrators acting for deceased shareholders
- Joint holdings
- The account opens in the first-named holder’s name. They must have permission to create it, and withdrawals go to a bank account in their name.

Practical notes
No pizza discount is established
EQ’s listing concerns voucher purchases, not pizza orders. Domino’s 2024 annual report describes a discount for employees buying shares through Sharesave, not a benefit for ordinary shareholders. The EQ entry applies to the UK company; the US and Australian Domino’s issuers are separate.
Voucher and account risks
Vouchers are in sterling. If a retailer goes out of business, you could lose the value of its unspent vouchers. EQ Boost is not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), and money in the account has no Financial Services Compensation Scheme protection. If Equiniti Financial Services Limited holds your shares, the dividend loses FCA client-money protection when it moves to EQ Boost.
Changing back to cash
You can withdraw unspent money to a UK bank account in the account holder’s name. To stop future dividends going to EQ Boost, change the election by the same deadline shown above. A late change may send one more dividend to EQ Boost.
