Any idea if the auto renew can be cancelled after you signup?
Great question, Lori! π From what I can see, you just need to enroll in auto-renewal at the time you sign up to qualify for the Shop Card. I donβt see anything in the terms saying you canβt turn it off afterward, though you may want to wait until after your membership is active and your Shop Card has been issued.
Used a similar deal from Groupon last week, Costco Customer Service was the one to suggest to me to turn off auto renew the day I receive my gift card – which was yesterday and I did turn it off, no issues
I have a slightly different question please. I don’t think I imagined it, but now I can’t locate it. Was there a post about a “price adjustment” plan you could get at Costco?
Hi Kim! You might be thinking of this post. π
So if I am the primary and my husband the second member. Can I switch the new membership to his name as new member?
Great question! You could double check with customer service to be sure that switch might work for you! β€οΈ
HOw would you get the Fetch points? Buy this through the Fetch app maybe?
He Nette! You would need to sign up through the link above and use the promo code to grab the Shop Card then head to Fetch and submit for the points. You should have the option to connect your Costco membership to your Fetch rewards account and upload your digital receipt. Hope this helps! β€οΈ
Hi, Can I go directly to costco.com and click on membership and still get the $45 shop card for Gold Star membership without using the promo code? If I need to enter the promotion code, how do I enter it during the application process? Thanks
Hey there, Nan! You will need to enter the promo code to grab the shop card. The link above will take you directly to the Costco web site and prompt you when to enter the code. Hope this helps! π
Thanks Trish!
You’re welcome! π
I got the costco card emailed to me right away, but did not get the giftcard. How long does it take to get the giftcard? I did enter the code above.
Hi Izzy! I found these details if helpful – Digital Costco Shop Card will be emailed to the email address provided by the Primary Member at time of sign-up within 2 weeks after successful sign-up and enrollment in auto renewal.
