Discover It giving 6% bonus cashback at grocery stores or Walmart (targeted)

Discover has sent out targeted emails to some cardholders over the last couple of weeks offering bonus cashback in some easy-to-spend categories.

The Deal

• Discover is targeting cardholders with offers including:
  • 6% bonus cashback at grocery stores
  • 6% bonus cashback at Walmart

Key Terms

• Registration required.
• Activate to earn an extra 6% Cashback Bonus from the date you activate through 12/31/2024, on up to $1,000 in purchases.

Quick Thoughts

These are very nice offers if you’re targeted as it’s in addition to the standard 1% cashback you’ll earn for a total of 7% cashback.

Be sure to check the full terms of whichever offer you’re targeted for (if any). My wife received the offer for 6% bonus cashback at grocery stores which excludes purchases from Walmart and Target, whereas a different offer gives 6% bonus cashback specifically at Walmart.

The subject line of the email my wife received was ‘Congrats [name], you can earn 6% extra cash back for all new purchases at Grocery Stores’. Companies often do A/B testing with email subject lines though, so even if you got the exact same offer there’s no guarantee the subject line would be the same.

The spending offers require one-click registration, so make sure you actually activate the offer before doing any spending.
