Tips & Ideas
As with nearly all of these Pepper Rewards deals, you only earn some of the points now, with the remaining bonus points being awarded at a future date. Unfortunately the app doesn’t give you any way to easily track what you’re owed, so you’ll need to track that yourself to ensure they credit you the correct amount which is frustrating.
However, note that the DoorDash deal is giving an instant 10% discount, plus you’ll earn points on the cost of the gift card after the discount.
For deals where you earn bonus points rather than get an instant discount, make sure that the boosted rate is still showing in the app before each purchase you make. Popular deals often sell out quickly, so it would be a shame to buy at the standard earning rate. To check if it’s still available, tap the envelope icon in the middle of the menu bar at the bottom of the app and see if the deal is listed there. Sometimes it’ll sell out before Pepper Rewards actually sends out an email about the deal.
Seeing as with these deals you normally have to wait 2+ weeks to earn the bulk of the bonus points, be sure to evaluate your risk tolerance in case you don’t receive those payouts for one reason or another.
You can pay with an Amex Business Gold card to earn 4x Membership Rewards if this is one of your top two spending categories this billing period.
