Pepper: Get 14% Back On Sam’s Club; 13% DoorDash, Instacart & More (Stack with AmEx Offer)

The Offer

Pepper app is offering the following deals:

  1. Get 14% back on Amazon with no limit
  2. Get 15% back on Amazon Fresh with no limit (these are the same as Amazon gift cards)
  3. Get 14% back on Sam’s Club with no limit (these are the same as Walmart gift cards)
  4. Get 18% back on REI with no limit
  5. Get 20% back on Macy’s with no limit
  6. Get 20% back on Gamestop with no limit
  7. Get 20% back on Bath & Body Works with no limit
  8. Get 20% back on Champ’s with no limit
  9. Get 25% back on Fanatics with no limit
  10. Get 25% back on JCPenney with no limit
  11. Get 10% instant discount on Instacart, plus the regular 3% back; this deal is valid 10/27 – 10/30 and is limited to $200 in purchases ($20 discount)
  12. Get 10% instant discount on DoorDash, plus the regular 3% back; this deal is valid 10/30 – 11/1 and is limited to $600 in purchases ($60 discount)

The standard Pepper points will be instantly available and the bonus Pepper points will be awarded on 11/13/24. You can see these deals in your messages tab or notifications tab. Be sure that you should see the bonus reflected on the checkout screen; these deals only last one day and they often sell out early.

The Pepper points system is confusing, so let’s give an example: Let’s say, for example, that Pepper is offering 10x on Amazon. If you buy $100 in Amazon gift cards, you’ll get 8,000 points instantly (4x) which is worth $4 toward your next purchase; that’s 4% back. In a few weeks, you’ll get an additional 12,000 points which is worth $6 and is the same as 6% back. Altogether, you’ll end up with 10x back will is the same as 10% back. It’s easier to just avoid thinking about the points totals and focus on the ‘x’ back since that is the same number as the % back you’ll be getting (1x = 1% back; 10x = 10% back).

You’ll see a tab in the app called ‘Points History’ which will clearly show which points have posted and which points are pending. (Update your app if you don’t see it.)

 

Our Verdict

Keep in mind that for most of these deals the bonus points won’t be available for a few weeks, and it’s not worth buying unless you can manage the risk of something going wrong with the bonus points posting a few weeks down the line. There have been times when people have had issues logging in; therefore, I’d recommend screenshotting and copying the gift card info immediately. I’d also recommend using up the Pepper points as soon as possible to be safe.

These deals stack well with the AmEx Offer for $15 off $50. Reports are that Amex Business Gold  to earn 4x if it’s one of your top two categories as part of the Computer Software category. And it counts as Computer Software category for BofA Customized Cash Rewards cards for 3%/5.25% and for 1.5x on the Business Platinum card. And reports are that it counts as Online Shopping for BofA cards and Blue Cash card and ShopYourWay card and the legacy Citi AT&T card.

Note: While there is no limit to most of these deals, you might be limited in overall quantities that can be purchased from Pepper in a day. So you might only get $2,000 or some other number until the app stops you. It’s sometimes possible to increase limits by calling in and verifying. And you might be able to buy again the next day as your limits reset.

My thanks if you enter my signup code 584255 during the initial signup process. Those who signup with a referral code get double Pepper points on all purchases for 15 days. (If you do a bonus offer during the referral period, some people report there being a stack of the two deals with double points on the base and single points on the bonus. Others report only the base gets doubled.) Please no referral sharing in the comments below.

Trying to stack with the Amex Offer (spend $50, get $15) and it is beyond annoying. It brings up some sort of integrated Amex Safekey fraud thing where it asks me to approve the transaction in the app or enter a code they send to my phone/email.

Once I do that, it says “great, we know it’s you, you can go back to checkout in your app now”.. but once I do, Pepper says Amex has declined the transaction. Try it again, and it makes you go through the entire fraud process again (even though you just proved to Amex it was you 15 seconds ago on the first transaction), and once you again prove it’s you you get declined again. Rinse, repeat, over and over.

Never had an issue with any of my chase cards.

I had to do this the other day. I only had to do it once on Android. Charge posted just fine.

I also have an Android (3 year old Samsung), just did a Doordash order with Amex card about 30 minutes ago and didn’t have to go through any additional fraud steps. I’ve already redeemed the GC.

How does double points for new referrals work? P2 signed up using referral code but they’re not seeing any extra points.

Ugh, I missed Amazon again. Is there a certain time when these go live each day?
