Sam's Club, Synchrony, and Mastercard announced a new Sam's Club Mastercard rewards program that provides additional value for cardholders – from expanded rewards to digital enhancements. The card program is an essential tool for all Sam's Club Plus members that helps maximize savings and delivers on the evolving consumer shopping habits.
Sam's Club, Synchrony, and Mastercard will give Plus members a total of up to 5% back on eligible Sam's Club purchases.
Here's how it works: Plus members using their Sam's Club Mastercard earn 3% back on purchases in-club; they earn an additional 2% back from their Plus membership for a total of up to 5%. (Each program is independently operated and managed*). That is more value than any other credit card can consistently offer at Sam's Club. For Plus members looking to make their money go further, there's no better credit card in the market today.
Cardmembers can take advantage of these new benefits and features:
-
More value: 3 + 2 = 5: Plus members earn 3% back on eligible purchases when shopping in-club or digitally through Sam's Club when they use their Sam's Club Mastercard and another 2% back from their Plus membership, for a total of up to 5% rewards on eligible purchases.
-
Savings: For everyday eligible purchases, the credit card offers an industry leading 5% cash back on fuel anywhere (up to $6,000), 3% cash back on dining and takeout, and 1% cash back on all other eligible purchases.
-
Less contact: As consumers look for ways to transact without touching cash, cards, or keypads, Synchrony has enabled Sam's Club with contact-free technology, including the integration of payments capabilities into Sam's Club Scan & Go patented solution, both in-club and at the pump.
-
Mobile first: Sam's Club cardholders can easily make purchases, track spending, check and pay balances, and securely manage and freeze accounts via the Sam's Club mobile app enabled by the Synchrony plug-in ('SyPi').
-
Digitized rewards: No more paper checks! Rewards are automatically loaded onto membership cards and can be used for future purchases made both online and in club, or exchanged for cash back.
-
Applying made easy: Members can apply for the Sam's Club Mastercard in club and via digital channels including the member service desk, at the point of sale (including Scan & Go), the Sam's Club mobile app, SamsClub.com, via text message, and self-checkout enabled with Synchrony's patent-pending dApply technology, API's, and the Synchrony plug-in ('SyPi').
"We are always looking for ways to give our members a better experience, including ways to help them save money and earn rewards. This new Sam's Club Mastercard rewards program builds upon Sam's Club as an essential business during the pandemic where we saw sales increasing by millions of transactions per week. Now more than ever, our members need savings. They now have a new tool in their toolkit to make their money go further," said Tony Rogers, senior vice president and chief member officer, Sam's Club.
