The Offer
Dosh is sending out an offer for Sam’s Club:
- Spend at Sam’s Club with a linked card and get 5% back in your Dosh account.
- Previously when this has been sent out people have also been offered 10%/15% & 20% as well
They also mention $15 back for buying a new Sam’s Club membership. (There are often similar Sam’s signup offers through various channels.)
The Fine Print
- Unknown valid to/from dates
- $20 max cash back per day (it’s actually per 24 hour period)
- Offer valid at participating in-store locations.
Our Verdict
Sam’s sells a wide variety of items, gas purchases or gift card purchases should work too. If you’re giving Dosh a try, appreciate if you use Chuck’s Dosh referral link. You can also find other referrals and leave referrals in this dedicated post. (Dosh tracks the signups through the app download process.) You’ll get a $5 bonus as well for signing up and linking a card + $2 for linking a second and third card.

I bought 2x$250 Vanilla MCGC and got $20 last night (around 8 pm). I bought the same this afternoon (around 2 pm) and still got the $20. So it would seem that it is $20 per day not per 24 hours.
Just wanted to add that I used two different credit cards. I am not sure that it makes a difference.
How much is the fee for a $250 MCGC?
I bought last night and it was a variable up to 250 with a 4.88 fee.
Signed up with doc referral. Quick question Does one need to add both 2nd and 3rd card to get the extra $2 ?
I didn't get any credit for adding 3 cards. So not sure if they discontinued on the extra.
Signed up dosh using doc's referral link and used it first time yesterday at Sam's. Got the email from dosh that I have earned $20. Yea!
Aside from the same info as the screenshot above, the app does not seem to provide any info on how the offer tracks for a new membership purchase. Has anyone done it? I was hoping to open the membership online with a linked card and take advantage of the offer. Not sure if that will work or if I need to go in-store?
DP for those of interest:
Last bought in Sams toward the end of the week, none in previous 24 hours.
Bought gas and neither dosh or uber visa local credited.
Bought something small ~$10. Got immediate notification on my phone of .50 Dosh credit and .50 uber credit
Bought a $200 MCGC for $206.48. Got $10.32 Dosh credit and $10.32 Uber credit
Bought another $200 MGC. Got $9.18 Dosh credit and no Uber credit.
For Uber credit, max it with $400 in one purchase not multiple ones per day. I wasn't sure if Dosh would work for another purchase but it did.
Is this deal targeted to those who already received an email. Or would it also apply to anyone who signs up for the app now? Thanks.
I think it will apply if you sign up now. It worked for me and I just signed up yesterday after reading this article. I went to Sam's Club and purchased 2 $200 Vanilla Mastercard gift cards and got my credit immediately.
Thanks
Dosh failed to track my first 2 purchases at Sam's. Their customer service offered to help, but that seems to defeat the purpose of their platform which is simple cashback. I'll give them one more chance.
I've had recurring problems with getting purchases made with my Sam's MC (Synchrony Bank) to post with Dosh. Dosh customer service does eventually get it corrected but it's a lot of hassle. I now only use Chase cards at Sam's. The Dosh payments post very quickly. I shop a lot at Sam's and the Dosh program has proven very worthwhile.
I should also note that I've had trouble with purchases made through Sam's "scan-and-go" program so I've stopped using it as well.
still works instantly for in-store purchases, but less incentive with 5% off. At 10% it was definitely worth it.
If offered, I would select 20%, as it is the greatest discount.
Everybody would, you don't get to choose.
If somebody decides to sign up for a Sam's Club membership... Ibotta is currently offering $10 cash back if you do it in store. John 3:16
