Our Verdict
I assume Scan & Go won’t work on gift card purchases, but I’m not 100% sure on that (confirmed not to work). Might still be of use to some people. The Sam’s Club Mastercard also earns 5% cash back on gas purchases ($6,000 annual cap) making it one of the best cards for gas purchases.
This 3% in addition to 2% that are to be given for using scan n go? (Totaling 5%?)
You should receive 3% cash back, not sure where you’re getting the other 2% from.
Been getting it since October.
through January 31st, 2017???
2018, fixing now.
Can confirm that I was unable to purchase giftcards via the Scan and Go App.
Thanks, Jeff.
I’ve purchased the restaurant gift cards where it’s like $100 card for $80 at least 10 times with the scan and go app. I just go over to the window where the cashier picks up certain items and show them the phone and they get me the gift card.
finally. sams club mastercard being useful in sams club puchases. i hope this becomes a permanent rewards instead.
Agreed. The cash-back percentages are great for gas and travel, but seriously, who didn’t agree to a higher percentage to shop at Sam’s vs anywhere else…
Particularly when Amazon gives you 5% day in and day out with their care. Although you don’t gas as much for gas purchases. Also, Amazon gave vets a $40 reduction on their Prime membership this year. Sams? NADA!
