What an Advance Auto Parts gift card gets you
Beyond the obvious oil, filters, and wiper blades, the same card covers batteries (with free in-store testing and installation on most), brake parts, fluids, car-care chemicals, tools, and accessories — and it spends both in store and at shop.advanceautoparts.com. Advance also runs the CARQUEST and Worldpac banners; the standard gift card is redeemable at Advance Auto Parts and CARQUEST stores, not at independent jobber locations. The card has no activation or per-purchase fee and the balance never erodes from dormancy charges.
two formats:
- Physical card: Sold at Advance Auto Parts stores and on grocery and warehouse-club gift-card racks. $5 to $500 per card.
- E-gift card: Emailed within minutes, redeemable in store by showing the code or online at checkout. $5 to $500 via Dyme; presets of $25, $50, $75, $100, $150, and $200.
You can apply more than one gift card to a single order in store or online. Combine a gift card with Speed Perks rewards and a coupon in the same transaction.

Can I get a Advance Auto Parts gift card at a discount?
Yes, but not through Dyme. Dyme sells Advance Auto Parts e-gift cards at face value; the value-add is Dyme Miles and instant paperless delivery, not a face-value discount. The discount channels are:
- Costco or Sam's Club, in store. Warehouse clubs periodically run discounted multi-packs of auto-parts and fuel gift cards. Stock rotates and isn't always available. Physical only, club membership required.
- Secondary marketplaces (Raise, CardCash). Resold gift cards from third parties, typically a few percent below face value. Verify the balance before redeeming, since secondary sellers occasionally list cards with partial balances.
- Advance Auto Parts coupons and promo codes. Advance frequently runs sitewide coupon codes (often 20% off a qualifying order). These apply to a purchase, not to buying the gift card itself, so you stack the coupon when you spend the card.
The bigger combined return comes from the rewards stack below: your credit card, Speed Perks at redemption, and Dyme Miles on the purchase. Most buyers leave that money on the table.
How to stack rewards
Three rewards programs fire on a single Advance Auto Parts gift card purchase through Dyme.
Your credit card earns rewards on the Dyme purchase.
Gift-card resellers typically code as MCC 5947; many cards exclude this MCC from category bonuses.
Free to join. Earns at redemption, not on the gift card purchase.
Speed Perks does not earn on the gift card purchase. It earns on the merchandise when you redeem, the same as paying with cash or credit. Members also get bonus offers and a birthday reward. Program terms →
Earn 1 Mile for every dollar you spend, and 5 Miles per dollarduring special offers — the layer the other channels can't match.
Illustrative only. Card rates, brand-program terms, and Dyme Miles offers change and vary by member; figures above are examples, not a guarantee of value.

How to buy at Costco, Sam's Club, or a supermarket

You pay no discount but earn the supermarket's loyalty points and any fuel rewards that apply to gift-card purchases.
