[YMMV] PayPal Rewards: Walmart 8%, McDonald’s 20% & More

View Comments (23)

• Bought a $500 Walmart physical gift card to try and double-dip this 8% Paypal offer with 5% back from Discover. It's looking promising so far... 4000 PP points are pending and "Walmart.com" charge coding passed through PP to Discover's system.

  • I have the same offer in my PayPal account. Maybe this sounds dumb, but how do you use it? Do you have to have PayPal on your phone? I have only logged into my account on a PC.

• Is there a limit on the amount of 8% cash back you can receive for walmart?

• Is McDonald one time or multiple times allowed for 20% off?

  • I activated and used the McD deal and afterwards the deal reappeared and could be reapplied in Paypal Rewards. No reward points are pending yet but it looks like it may be reusable.

    • I was able to redeem the 20% cashback at McD's twice and now the offer is appearing again at 5% cashback.

• Got 20% McD (useless) on 2 accounts, but unfortunately no Walmart deal.

• Just purchased $50 WM GC using:
  6% back Retailmenot
  3% back PayPal Mastercard
  8% back PayPal Reward
  I will report whether this triple stack worked.

  • Egift card or physical card?

    • Physical. ETA 7/1/24

      • Updated ETA 6/30/24 via Fedex.

        • Did you see 6% from retailmenot? Usually it takes one day to show.

        • 6% from RMN went pending today.

  • 8% back PayPal Reward pending immediately.

• Under the Terms and Conditions for the Walmart offer almost every category is under the excluded list.

• Doesn’t say gift cards are excluded but I’m sure it applies under “other exclusions will apply”. Anyone can confirm?

• I think this is going to be very ymmv- I see on two accounts
  eBay 2%
  Walmart 8%
  ticket master 6%
  Best Buy 6%
  od 3%
  staples 2%
  and others

• I see 8% for Walmart. Terms are hard to come by but of course it says they apply.

• Is there a limit as to how much I can get 8% back on? Could not find it in the offer anywhere.
