What a Kohl's gift card gets you
The card spends across every Kohl's department — apparel, shoes, home, kids, toys, and the Sephora at Kohl's beauty shops inside most stores. Unlike a bank-issued prepaid card, there are no activation or per-purchase fees, and dormancy charges never whittle the balance down. Kohl's gift cards also pair with Kohl's Cash and Rewards stacking, which is where most of the value hides.
two formats:
- Physical card: Mailed in a sleeve or bought at any register. $5 to $500 per card via Kohls.com.
- E-gift card: Emailed within minutes, redeemable online or shown in the app in store. $10 to $500 via Dyme; up to $500 via Kohls.com. Can be added to your phone wallet.
You can apply multiple Kohl's gift cards to a single transaction in store or online, with no documented cap, and combine them with Kohl's Cash and coupons.

Can I get a Kohl's gift card at a discount?
Yes, but not through Dyme. Dyme sells Kohl's 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. Periodic multi-pack Kohl's cards at a discount. Stock and pricing rotate and aren't always available. Physical only, club membership required.
- Secondary marketplaces (Raise, CardCash). Resold Kohl's cards from third parties, usually a few percent below face value. Verify the balance before redeeming, since secondary sellers occasionally list partial balances.
- Kohl's Cash stacking, not a gift-card discount. Kohl's gift-card SKUs are normally excluded from promo codes, but Kohl's Cash and Rewards earned on the merchandise you buy with the card stretch the real value well past face.
The bigger combined return comes from the rewards stack below: your credit card, Kohl's Rewards and Kohl's Cash 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 Kohl's 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.
Kohl's Rewards earns on the merchandise you buy with the gift card, not on the gift-card purchase. Scan your Kohl's Rewards account at checkout to capture it. 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
Costco and Sam's Club periodically run multi-pack Kohl's gift cards at a discount, with stock and pricing rotating. Supermarket gift-card racks at Kroger, Safeway, and Albertsons carry $25, $50, and $100 cards at face value. You pay no discount but earn the supermarket's loyalty points and any fuel rewards that apply to gift-card purchases.
