    Thank you! I went this morning to signup …really just want the $40 but the free shipping will be helpful too.

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      Woohoo! You’re welcome, Maria!

  2. Kevin

    What do you prefer? The credit or the debit?

    • Nicole

      I love the debit since I do alot of everyday items. Always 5% off my purchases and free shipping. It takes a day or two to come out of my account, so keep that in mind.

  3. Jess

    Can you have both the credit and the debit card?

    • Nicole

      Yes, you can have both.

  4. Melissa Rice

    Will we get 2 $40 off coupons if we apply for credit and debit?

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      Yes. You can grab the offer from each. Hope this helps!

  5. Marion

    Just not feeling comfortable doing this, had the red debit before and worked great until they had that security breech.

    • Luv🌺

      I thought the breach was with the credit card? I don’t have their credit card but I shopped on the site with another credit card during the time period and target sent me information about it and the credit monitoring service for a year.
      I applied and got approved for the debit card a few days ago so I can use the coupon for baby diapers and get free shipping without minimum. I used a checking account that I only keep a few hundreds in as a precaution. HTH 🌺

    I signed up last week for the debit card for my husband and one for me. They sent an apology letter saying they were not able to process mine (they said I can try again in store or online) and my husband was denied. I wonder what helps determine if we get it or not. We both have excellent credit (which I believe they don’t need to check for the debit card anyway) and we have been established with Bank of America for many years and are financially stable. 🤷🏼‍♀️ not wasting my time signing up anymore.

    • Shelly

      Mine came back with the same thing. We have excellent credit as well.

    • Abigail Schmidt

      Same. I’ve had an established bank account for seven years now, and excellent credit. Not wasting my time either. I feel like maybe they want me to sign up for a target credit card..

    • Victoria

      The same happened to me and my mom, we both re applied and were approved instantly. I think when I had initially tried their system was just overloaded with people trying to apply.

    • Layah

      Not sure what their deal is. I had the red card for years and loved shopping with it. Then I streamlined my budget and started saving shopping less. Before I realized a year had passed and they cancelled my card with no notice due to inactivity. Not wasting my time on it anymore.

    • Carmen Wilks

      2nd time applying with great credit as well and have had BOA for over 10 years. I was approved this time, not sure what changed, but if you are declined then call in to have them look at the app themsleves.

  7. Angie

    I just applied for a debit card and now have to wait for my checking account to be verified. Does anyone know if I will still get the coupon since it could take up to 3-5 days?

    • Dealzgurl

      Yes. My account had to be verified too but it didn’t take more than a day. Got the card and coupon last week.

    • Eva

      I hope so. I got a letter in the mail today saying that there was an error (I thought I had been denied). So, I signed up again online and they want me to verify my account. I hope I get the $40!

  8. Marie

    Just FYI I have the debit and credit and tried to apply for another debit tied to another account and was denied because I already have a debit card and am only allowed to have one debit tied to one account…

    • Amy

      Same exact thing happened to me. Bummer!

  9. Shaheena

    If I already have the debit card and my husband signs up, will we get the coupon if it’s the same bank account?

  10. Shey

    Not sure what happened but they denied me for the debit because they said they could not validate my checking account but sure seemed funny they could make 3 withdrawals then add them back and can’t validate and I even told them the amounts …weird to me.

    • Maria

      Same happened to me when I signed up online. When I called they had no clue how to assist me. I did it this morning in the store and it was approved instantly. Hope this helps.

  11. Jessica

    Hello, would i be able to use coupon on Nintendo switch?

    • Cassandra (Hip Sidekick)

      Hi Jessica! Unfortunately, the coupon excludes Nintendo hardware and Switch games. I added a list of exemptions to the post for clarification. Hope that helps!

  12. C

    So I applied and tried for the instant approval but it was rejected for some reason? and it only gave me the option to be approved for the other option now. So will I not get the coupon now? I sent my application to get approved regardless.

    • misti

      I didn’t do instant either. Why would we not get coupon? We should. I should get my card this weekend. So I will know soon I guess.

  13. Nikki

    Thank you for posting this! I saw it last weekend and signed up for the debit card. I received my debit card and $40 coupon in the mail today! Thanks Hip2Save! 🎉

    • Jennifer (Hip Sidekick)

      You are welcome, Nikki!

  14. Tara

    When do you get the coupon after signing up? Do they email it or regular mail?

    • Anita

      I received my $40 coupon with my debit card by mail.

  15. Misti

    I applied for the debit card last week. It all went through perfect. I should get the card next week with coupon. Thank you what a awesome deal.

    • Jennifer (Hip Sidekick)

      You are so welcome, Misti!

  16. Catherine

    I signed up for the debit card! Hoping I get the coupon soon for back to school shopping!

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      GREAT idea!

  17. alina

    After I applied it said that I should get their decision in the mail in the next 7 to 10 days, if I get accepted,will i still get the coupon,or you have to be accepted by tonight?

    • Eva

      That happened to me the first time I applied. They sent a letter stating there was an error and I could reapply again.

      • Natasha

        I signed up. Says I’ll need to verify my bank account. Hopefully coupon comes with the debit card 🙂 This will pair nicely with our Coke Rewards target gift cards. My local target is an hour away, but for a nice deal, we can always squeeze in a shopping trip.

  18. Ang

    I just applied in store & received the email to wait 7-10 days? What should I do? Apply online? Don’t want to miss out on promo

  19. Amy

    FYI, I have a RedCard (debit) on my primary checking account and applied for one for my secondary account, just to get the coupon. Denied. Apparently you can only have one (of the same type) card per SSN. Just a heads up!

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      Thanks so much for the helpful comment, Amy!

  20. Alex

    Does anyone know if you have you activate the card in order to use the coupon? I just received it and i’m not sure if I want to activate the card yet..

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      Hi Alex! I did double check with customer service. You will need to activate your card to redeem the offer. Hope this helps!

      • Theresa Day

        I applied for debit card on the last day-7/27 and was instantly approved. I got the card today and no coupon. Did anyone else have this issue

        • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

          Darn! Be sure to call in to customer service so that they can look into that for you! 1-800-424-6888
          Hope that helps!

          • Theresa Day

            I did call and they are sending it out to me!!
            They said it was approved in 7/27 and then they had to verify my bank acct which they did on 7/30 so that is why it didn’t come automatically.
            Theresa

  21. Alie

    I am so sad I forgot to do this one, does anyone know if they do another promotion like this again

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      We’ll be sure to keep an eye out!

  22. Jennifer

    Did anyone else apply for a Target RedCard and not receive the $40 coupon?

    • Shawn

      My Son applied for one, and did not receive the coupon. He sent them a message through the manage RedCard site. Hopefully he can still get one.

      • Theresa Day

        I called and she had to put it in manually in system but she said mine is on the way
