Update 2/20/24: Deal is back

The Offer
Check your Dosh app for the following offer:
- Get 5% cash back at Office Depot/Max stores when using a Visa card linked to Dosh. Max $5.50 cashback. Requires activation.
- You can also get 5% cash back at officedepot.com when clicking through the Dosh app and using a connected card.
Our Verdict
The online offer is just basically a shopping portal; compare rates here. The store offer is a nice bonus, but again, the terms exclude gift cards.
If you are new to Dosh, my thanks if you use my signup code CHUCKS2 during signup – you’ll get some small bonus (either $1 or $5, not sure what the current bonus is) when downloading the app and linking a card.

Dosh is definitely screening OD purchases more intensely now compared to previous years. One of the OD VGC purchases posted and the others did not. YMMV
I took a screenshot of my offer terms (10% off, $11 max) on the Dosh app, and it mentioned nothing about gift cards being excluded.
I bought VGC on 2/24 and today Dosh and Chase each credited me $11.
It failed on my gift card purchase.
I tried it today and it worked for VGC.
Whether it stays and gets paid out is another matter.
Effn Dosh
Fyi…be careful about buying gc’s through Dosh. You may get away with occasionally mixing a small one with other purchases. However…if they begin to observe frequent gc purchases…they will freeze your account and refuse to pay out on them. So… basically…just because the cash back has posted to your account…does not mean they will approve your payout. Just fyi…have a blessed rest of your day!!
I got Dosh money a couple weeks ago from a VGC purchase
I’ll give it a try next time there’s a VGC sale.
Dosh was very profitable in the old days before I got banned.
My guess is that it won’t work, but there’s no harm in trying.
According to the post, gift cards are excluded. “The online offer is just basically a shopping portal; compare rates here. The store offer is a nice bonus, but again, the terms exclude gift cards.”
Looks like it will track, too.
I don’t do a lot of online shopping like many of you. But on the very few occasions when I’ve had a glitch with DOSH their customer service has been great, very responsive snd helpful.
Bought a $100 Starbucks giftcard. Dosh rejected the transaction as not qualifying. Time to delete the Dosh app again,
right, they sucks, they rejected mine as well
