The Offer
- Kroger.com is selling Visa and Mastercard gift cards in $25, $50, and $100 denominations at a 5% discount.
The Fine Print
- Limit 3 of each denomination/brand
- Expires August 3, 2021
Our Verdict
The $100 cards come with a $5.95 fee, so after the 5% discount it’ll land up $100.95 for each card. You’ll also currently earn 4x fuel points on the purchase. You won’t get the grocery multiplier on the credit card for Kroger.com gift card purchases.
This might be a hot take, but I miss the US bank visa cards they used to sell. Literally anything would be better than the blackhawk-distributed pathward/metabank-issued cards that all the big grocers seem to be moving to.
Does anyone have an online source of us bank issued gebits?
I got burnt twice in 7days on the U.S. bank still haven’t resolved it been a little over a year. They are just so frustrating to work with over the phone…
100$+7$ fee = 107$.
5% off = 102$ (approx)
4x gas = 98$
So effectively 2% saving.
This is not a deal.
Why would anyone buy these cards. Considering the risk with these cards its a big no. Kroger need to sweeten the deal.
fee is $6.95 and Expires Aprilt 30, 2024
“$100 cards come with a $5.95 fee”
It’s NOT $5.95
The fee is $6.95
Also shipping is $0.50
Most of the cards have rolled out to the new fee for some time now or have been changed over.

Are these virtual debit cards? I’m a beginner in manufactured spending. Can I use a virtual debit card to buy a Walmart Money Order?
No and no
i have two $100 cards that i was unable to activate and am getting the runaround between Kroger, BHN, and US Bank. Has anyone gotten resolution on this?
I had two, 7days apart…activated at 530 pm on one of them, didn’t use the funds asap(lesson learned) and by 945pm it was drained…
I still have both cards in my wallet i just have been putting off dealing with support again i get too angry at their script they regurgitate over this issue 50xday…
I dunno the processor but if it’s from vanillagift.com, just be aware that they lock the card if your refund is different from transaction amount. I need to submit all my receipts and personal information, still not yet unlocked. I have like $200ish stuck in there. It sounds like a dumb implementation and talking with their reps isn’t fun.
Their email box where I need to send documents to continuously bounces with mailbox full, [email protected]
Raymond , were you able to get anywhere with the refund. I am facing the same issue .
To get the 4x gas multiplier – the cards must be purchased tomorrow – Correct? “Friday Only.”
