Our Verdict
Some nice deals here. Just keep in mind that the bonus points won’t be available for a few weeks, and so I wouldn’t recommend buying unless you can manage the risk of something going wrong with the bonus points posting a few weeks down the line.
Reports are that Amex Business Gold to earn 4x if it’s one of your top two categories. And reports are that it counts as Online Shopping for BofA cards and Blue Cash card and ShopYourWay card. And it counts as Computer Software category for BofA Customized Cash Rewards cards and for 1.5x on the Business Platinum card.
Note: While there is no limit to 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.
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. (Not clear whether these bonus deals will be doubled.) No referral links or references in the comments below, please.

Pepper is working again, for me at least.
Same for me
I am interested in continuing to hear about deals, promotions, and info about Pepper as long as the service is trustworthy and there are no other issues. Hopefully, this is just a service issue and nothing larger.
Like others here, I'm locked out of my Pepper account as well. I'm not sure whether to continue posting their deals or just leave it until they get their operation better. Today they have some nice deals like 20% off Instacart and 10% off IKEA. Let us know if you're interested in continuing to hear about the Pepper deals or if we should just stop posting them.
Is it possible those accounts with high points balance/ credits are locked out? P1 & P2 with very small points can log in just fine
Rug pull in 5... 4...
I've stopped "peppering" my gc since last few weeks. I just don't trust them and plenty other avenues to get this hobby going.
What is the limit to the total you can spend and get doubled during the first 15 days as part of the referral bonus for new members? And are Points Boosts promos doubled during the first 15 days, too?
What is the standard points that can be earned from a purchase and there is not one of these promotions going on? One point per dollar spent, or maybe if the promotion is 10% standard as 5%?
I got locked out and can’t even contact support over phone. Multiple reports for the same issue. Something is going on
Another DP: I have contacted 2-3 times after the account got locked due to BOA. I did the callback when available option and they called me within less than an hour. With email support, it took 24 hours.
How recently was this? Was it within the past week?
This week.
You must be special. I called them four days ago and again yesterday - no answer, left a voicemail and no call back.
Same here. My guess is they are going under and promising a bunch of bonus points in the coming weeks that they have no intent to pay out. Trying to maximize revenue before they declare bankruptcy. I should've cashed out my remaining points while I had the chance before I got stuck in the infinite password reset loop.
same here. no one is there.
I've been having the same issue for a week; I can't get in to my account to redeem my points. I get stuck on an endless loop of resetting my password. Support never answers their phone - I leave a voicemail and never get a call back. I think they're going belly up.
Each 10,000 points gets you $5. So if Delta is giving 12x points that’s 6% off, not 12%, right? So DoCs percentage calculations are off by half.
12x means 12%.
Sooner or later, Pepper will go bust. Their business model seemed unsustainable from day one.
It reminds me of the old days with Dosh.
I will enjoy it while it lasts.

All of those apps met a similar fate.
