[Expired] Rakuten In-Store: Get 1% Back At Walmart, Best Buy, Sam’s Club and More

Update 8/5/22: Now increased to 3%

The Offer

Direct Link to offer

  • Rakuten is offering 1% cashback in-store at Walmart, Best Buy, Sam’s Club and more when shopping with a linked card. Valid through August 7th.
  • Also 3% back at Rite Aid.

Our Verdict

Good to see them add top brands, albeit for just a few days. Add your card now if you made a purchase earlier today, maybe it’ll track that way.

Did this the last time and had no issues other than once with tracking. I made two purchases today at Walmart. On two different linked Amex cards and no tracking so far (four hours later). Not a big deal as it was stuff I was going to purchase anyway.

Stupidly, I made a large purchase right before, and only added the offer on Rakuten afterwards. Charge is still temp and nothing posted yet. Do I have a chance?

I spent over $2500 in store at Sam’s on 3 Aug before seeing this post and adding my card. Got bonus today, 7 Aug, on top of my Citi Merchant offer

Just to update this the cashback did post but it was about 14 hours later not instant like prior promotions and I didn’t ever get an email like prior promos either. And as an added bonus the transactions posted as 3x not 1x (offer changed today).

does Rakuten work with Sams club Scan and Go in the app?

Scan and Go codes as online for me so I’d guess there is a good chance they don’t count as in-store but have no idea.

Got 2.5% on Rite Aid, although it says gift cards excluded, are there DPs that Rakuten can tell from L3 data when purchased in store? My CFF has 5% offer, if 2.5% stacks too, it will make it a 10.5% back on $60 gift card…

Rakuten catches GCs from OD/OM, not sure if applies to other stores

It was 5% last time. 1% not worth the effort
