The Offer
- Staples is offering a $200 Visa giftcard with no purchase fee
The Fine Print
- Limit 3
- Valid 11/23 only
Our Verdict
This will likely sell out, so I’d recommend buying sooner rather than later. Remember to use a card that earns at a high rate on office supply store purchases. There is also the AmEx offer if you haven’t used that already.
Can anyone share the website to activate the cards?

Sam Y. My scanner seems to have eaten the stickers that I pasted re the activation website, and the paper with the 4 digit codes only has the phone number 877-233-4633. Or do I have to call that number and no way to do so via web?
giftcardkey.com, but the first one I tried gave me errors so I ended up calling that number
Thanks!
No clue, haven’t gotten mine yet. I’ve check the listing and it was listed as GiftCardMalls so it might work there. Or just call and check balance and usually it activate for you. I’ve seen some cases where you can get a link to your phone (prepaidgiftcard.com does that) and to setup your address that way.
I see, thanks so much and hope you get yours soon!
Just got mine. The paper that the debit card are stick to comes with activation code. It was harder to see but its and in small section. You need that to go to the giftcardkey.com (part of GiftCardmall.com) to activate it with the 4 digit code. Not sure what you need to do other than call if you don’t have that.
Once you activate, you can register it with address on GiftCardmall.com. GL.
Thanks so much for the helpful and detailed instructions!
Fyi i threw it the paper without realizing. I called Staples and they were able to get the cards activated.
Got notification that my order has shipped but the pending charges have disappeared on Chase app/site. Anyone else have this?
Yes, same thing happened to me.
My pending charge also got dropped, but my order is still in the “Order Placed” stage.
I emailed customer service the other day. Today I got an email that it has been shipped and will be delivered Dec 7th, but my Chase Ink card doesn’t show the charges for those gift cards. Maybe they will charge me later?
it’s a chase business thing. When they transition from Pending to Posted, it disappear from their website for a day or two. Happens for years now.
It’s dead now.
Deal is still active as of 2100 CST. I picked up three with Ink. No added $5.95 shipping fee as was mentioned in previous posts.
Just grabbed 3, worked no problem
Bean meaning to ask, but how does everyone spend/unload gift cards? I never figured it out.
I buy these with my 5% Ink card and use on utility bills, insurance, medical bills… anything that I can’t get 5% on.
Thanks, just looked through my utility payment options and debit/credit payments are manual. Guess I’ll just have to set a reminder.
Pay rent.
My rent is only payable via ACH, so I use the BILT card. Would be great if I got a 5% card for GCs and could use them.
The site is charging a delivery area surcharge of 5.95 for my address. That’s a new one. I guess I’ll pass.
I messaged a staples agent via the live chat and asked if they could waive the delivery area surcharge and they waived (one time exception) what would’ve been the shipping charge (9.95) resulting in an adjusted total of $600.51.
Excellent. Brought 3x with Ink Cash linked to PayPal (so I don’t have to make account)
Does CIC actually earn the 5x when used via PayPal? Why not checkout as guest?
you know what, that’s a good question…lol. I forgot about that.
I was thinking of Chase Freedom and Paypal, and though it’ll work with Ink and PayPal. Let’ see. If it doesn’t, oh well.
It works. Got 5x for using paypal and staples.
can anybody confirm if this promotion applies to instore purchases?
Re-read the headline. Does it say Staples or Staples.com
Happen to be in the same parking lot as a Staples. Tried in the store and they didn’t know about the promo. Online only.
thank you for confirming.
Just bought one – 11:03am CT
