The payment goes to members who bank with Nationwide regularly.
Those who have a savings account or mortgage product could also qualify.
Customers can expect the cash to land in their accounts between June 18 and July 4.
And there is a code that customers should look out for on their bank statements to ensure they have received the cash - it is Nationwide Fairer Share Payment.
But you must have opened a main current account with Nationwide by March 31 to get your hands on the money.
You would have needed to have £100 in savings or owe £100 on your mortgage by that date.
You also will need to have used your account within the first three months of this year.
This is the third year that Nationwide has given away free cash to customers.
Last year, it paid out a total of £385million to 3.85million customers and the year before £340million to 3.4million people.
Back in December, the building society's boss confirmed it would make the payment for a third time.
Major bank paying out £100 to customers
It's worth noting, the £100 Fairer Share payment is separate to the £50 issued to around 12million Nationwide customers between April 9 and May 14.
Recently the bank has also launched a new £200 switching offer to treat customers who sign up for its new bond.
Nationwide's member inclusive bond is available to sign up to for all 16 million existing members and can be opened in branch, online or via the Banking App.
This is a fixed-rate savings bond available only to Nationwide members.
BANKING FREEBIES
Nationwide is not the only bank giving customers free cash.
TSB is giving new customers who switch to the high street bank a £100 switching incentive.
You get the £100 upfront but if you spend on your debit card for 20 times in the first six months you get a £15 a month cashback.
Santander has launched a new switching incentive to lure in customers.
As part of the deal, customers will receive £180 within 90 days of making the switch.
Cusomers need to pay £1,500 into the account within 60 days. This does not have to be deposited all at once.
Customers must also set up two active household direct debits on the new account.
This can include your council tax, mobile phone, home phone, broadband, paid-for TV packages, water, gas and electricity bills.
Co-op Bank is also paying £175 to new customers.

Major furniture maker that supplies ‘leading brands' across UK abruptly ceases trading with ALL workers to lose jobs
The firm is about to go into liquidation DOORS CLOSING Major furniture maker that supplies 'leading brands' across UK abruptly ceases trading with ALL workers to lose jobs Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A MAJOR manufacturer has suddenly shut down due to "very difficult" market conditions. Andrew Paul Furniture, which supplied "leading brands" across the UK, had to cease trading. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 A major furniture maker had to stop trading due to decline in sales Credit: Getty The major furniture maker, which manufactured chairs and sofas for well-known brands, has closed down after a decline in sales. Andrew Paul Furniture employs 178 highly skilled wood machinists, frame makers and upholsterers in Long Eaton who will now lose their livelihood. The firm stopped trading on June 26 after 15 years on the market and is about to go into liquidation. This means that all employees will be let off and the company's assets will be liquidated in an effort to pay off its debts. Post-Covid struggles According to the company's financial records for 2024, Andrew Paul Furniture has provided goods to "leading brands" and is a part of the "recognised centre of excellence for upholstered furniture" in Long Eaton. The furniture maker produced "modern designs to high specifications" by combining traditional craft and the latest technology. But the firm struggled with a challenging market climate following Covid-19. In the report, bosses said: "Like all manufacturers in the furniture trade, business has been very difficult and cutbacks in all areas of the business have had to be made. "The company has experienced a slight downturn in trade and in recent years has made losses." The firm owes £2million in debt The financial filings have also revealed that the firm owes creditors over £2million over the course of the next year. The lion's share of this money, around £1million, is owed to other businesses which had worked with the furniture maker. The company had implemented a restructuring programme in a bid to save itself from bankruptcy and even moved its production to Meadow Lane premises to reduce costs. However, in the same financial report the firm had admitted that its future was uncertain. Despite the efforts, Andrew Paul Furniture saw a decrease in turnover from £14,242,283 in 2023 to £12,944,655 in the previous year.

Expert reveals the careers that will be SAFE from AI amid fears of workplace takeover & job losses
Read on to discover the careers best places to protect yourself from an AI replacement BEAT THE BOTS Expert reveals the careers that will be SAFE from AI amid fears of workplace takeover & job losses Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) COUNTDOWN star Susie Dent says she may be doing herself out of a job by helping to educate AI. The show's Dictionary Corner expert tells the bots what they get wrong, helping them to improve. 5 Susie Dent is helping AI bots improve - but might be doing herself out of a job Credit: Channel 4 5 Jobs expert Claire Sheerin explains the careers best used to avoid being replaced by AI Credit: Reuters Meanwhile, firms across the UK are slashing starter jobs as AI takes a firmer foothold, a recruitment report has warned. It said the number of entry-level positions is down almost a third since ChatGPT was launched three years ago. Chief Features Writer MATT BENDORIS speaks to a job expert to discover the careers Scots should choose to protect themselves against being replaced by artificial intelligence. SCOTS need to train for highly skilled trades if they want to guarantee a long-running career that will be untouched by artificial intelligence That's according to Claire Sheerin, the operational director for Scots-based recruitment specialists Lusona, who has nearly a quarter of a century experience in the jobs market. But she believes that there is already a major skillset shortage in Scotland, with demand for new recruits at an all-time high. 5 Scots need to train for highly skilled trades Credit: Getty 5 There's a major skillset shortage in Scotland - with demand at all-time high Credit: Getty She said: 'There's definitely huge skill shortages in Scotland for a lot of industries. 'We also have an ageing population that is actually ageing at a higher rate than the rest of the UK. 'Covid also meant that many people left their careers or retired. 'So highly skilled trades jobs are always important but even more so as the UK tries to hit its carbon emission targets. 'So as we try to retrofit our buildings, skills like heating and ventilation, air conditioning, electricity are going to continue to drive forward and can be quite lucrative. 'From a Scottish perceptive the Scottish Government knows there is a skills shortage and needs the education system to get a bigger volume of candidates that are required for the industry as we continue to decarbonise. 'It's definitely a buoyant place and will be so for the foreseeable future.' Hospitality is another area that should be shielded for the most part by advancing technology. Total automation Claire adds: 'It's possible a robot is going to bring your drink and food, and many restaurants are already using automated ordering systems. 'But again you are still going to need people to cook the food and pour the drinks even if they aren't taking your orders any more.' Warehouse work is one area that has been hit by AI and robotics, however Claire reckons that increased costs to employers are preventing a mass rush to total automation. 5 Hospitality jobs should also be shielded by advanced tech Credit: Alamy She explains: 'Fully automated warehouses is a big upfront investment. Major organisations can afford it, but smaller businesses are still scoping that out. 'They will be asking themselves if they have got the money right now? Because money is tight with the National Insurance increases so cash flows are down. 'It's not that organisations won't eventually go down that route, but for now they will only have partial automated production lines.' Many jobs in copywriting and proofreading have already been replaced by AI, but despite workers' fears that they are heading for the scrapheap, Claire maintains it won't be 'Armageddon.' She says: 'Many industries will be affected by AI, but I don't think it's quite to the extent that people fear. 'Proofreaders and copywriters will be feeling the pain now, but that should leave sales teams more time to spend with customers and on more complex tasks. 'All our clients feel they should be using AI more as they believe it will probably make life a bit easier. 'That's certainly true where we've already seen big changes in the use of chatbots and virtual assistants for banking and call centres, but that's been the trend for a while now. 'But you still need a person as those chatbots will only take a customer so far. 'Previously you would have had an office manager taking minutes and notes for meetings, but now they use AI tools for those types of things. 'That office manager is still required to be there, but now they can get involved in other tasks and deployed elsewhere.' Ultimately Claire believes that if the workforce and employers embrace AI technology it will lead to better, higher paid jobs. She says: 'We need a balanced outlook as a lot of people are scared of AI and they're not sure how their company plans to use it. 'So employers need to use training and support to get their current staff comfortable with using it, so they can see the benefits. 'Ultimately all employers do not want to lose their best talents because they know the challenges of replacing good people. 'So it's actually quite exciting from that angle as AI will free up staff to take on more challenging tasks, leading to better paid, more skilled jobs.'

Iconic car brand to ‘cut 400 jobs' despite saying it has ‘no plans' to end production in UK
The brand held emergency talks with the government ROADBLOCK Iconic car brand to 'cut 400 jobs' despite saying it has 'no plans' to end production in UK Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) AN iconic sports car manufacturer is reportedly considering axing 400 jobs after saying it had no plans to end production in the UK. The factory set to lose 30 per cent of its work force in Norfolk has been open since the 1960s. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 Fears have been raised that the factory could close altogether Credit: Getty 4 Up to 30 per cent of the factory's workforce could lose their jobs Credit: Getty Lotus has reportedly become the latest car manufacturer to look at slashing its UK workforce. The move comes after the brand held emergency talks and fellow motor manufacturer Nissan said it would be slashing 250 jobs from one of its UK sites. A report in the Daily Mail claims that the sports car specialist is considering cutting 30 per cent of jobs at its plant in Hethel, Norfolk. Of the 1,300 staff at the site up to 390 could now be facing down the prospect of losing their job. A decision on the job losses is expected from the brand in the next few months. Recent reports that the brand was considering closing its factory in Hethel and moving production to the US were denied by the firm. Majority owned by Chinese carmaker Geely, Lotus adamantly rejected the claims, saying in a statement: "The UK is the heart of the Lotus brand—home to our sports car manufacturing, global design centre, motorsport operations, and Lotus Engineering. "It is also our largest commercial market in Europe. "Lotus Cars is continuing normal operations, and there are no plans to close the factory. "We are actively exploring strategic options to enhance efficiency and ensure global competitiveness in the evolving market. The modern classic Lotus Elise "We have invested significantly in R&D and operations in the UK, over the past six years. "Lotus remains committed to the UK, and its customers, employees, dealers, suppliers, as well as its proud British heritage." The reports of imminent closure however sparked intervention by the government with company executives meeting business secretary Jonathan Reynolds. The meeting on Sunday, June29, reportedly saw the group discuss possible support measures. 4 The Norfolk Lotus factory has been open since the 1960s Credit: Reuters 4 Concerns have been raised over American imposed tariffs Credit: Alamy Fears were raised that the brand would fall victim to Donald Trump's import tariffs. These were reportedly not addressed by the news that the tariffs would be reduced from 27.5 per cent to 10 per cent. Despite the emergency meeting, the offer of government support and the reduction in tariffs, the brand is still said to be set to cut a huge number of jobs. The Sun has approached Lotus for comment.
