What a Zappos.com gift card gets you
The card covers more than shoes — Zappos carries clothing, handbags, accessories, and gear from over 1,000 brands, and the gift card spends across all of it. The bigger draw is what comes with every Zappos order regardless of how you pay: free shipping both ways and a 365-day return window, so a gift recipient is never stuck with the wrong size. There are no activation or per-purchase fees, and the balance never erodes from dormancy charges.
one format:
- E-gift card: Emailed within minutes, redeemable at checkout on zappos.com. $25 to $500 via Dyme; up to $1,000 via zappos.com.
You can apply more than one Zappos gift card to a single order at checkout, and a partial balance carries over to your next purchase.

Can I get a Zappos.com gift card at a discount?
Yes, but not through Dyme. Dyme sells Zappos 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:
- Secondary marketplaces (Raise, CardCash). Resold Zappos 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.
- Zappos sale events. Zappos runs storewide sales and clearance throughout the year that discount the merchandise, not the gift cards. Buying a card and spending it during a sale stretches it furthest.
- VIP early access and promos. The free Zappos VIP program unlocks faster shipping and early access to sales, which can mean catching limited discounted inventory before it sells out.
The combined return comes from the discount channels above plus the rewards stack below: your credit card and Dyme Miles on the purchase. Zappos VIP is free but doesn't earn points, so those layers carry the value.
How to stack rewards
Two rewards programs fire on a single Zappos 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.
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.
