REI Coupons & Promo Codes in November 2026

REI Co-op membership costs $30 one-time but includes a $30 bonus card, making it essentially free. The lifetime membership unlocks member pricing and free shipping forever.

Member benefits:

• $30 bonus card (covers the membership fee)

• Annual 10% off Co-op member reward

• Free shipping on all orders

• 20% off during member events

• 20% off bike and snow shop services

• Access to REI Re/Supply (used gear) section

• Member-only clearance prices (extra 10-25% off)

What the savings look like:

• Join and get $30 back: Net cost $0

• Members Day 20% off a $500 purchase: Save $100

• Free shipping on six orders yearly: Save $36-$60

• Bike tune-up ($80) at 20% off: Save $16

• First year typical savings: $152-$176

Members Day alone justifies joining. 20% off sitewide happens during March anniversary sale and other seasonal events. A single $200 purchase saves $40, already beating the membership cost even without the bonus card.

Member-only clearance prices stack with sales. An item 50% off might show another 25% off for members only, dropping a $100 item to $37.50 instead of $50.

The REI Co-op Mastercard gives 5% back on REI purchases and 1.5% back everywhere else. New cardholders get a $100 REI gift card after their first purchase within 60 days. Requires REI membership ($30 one-time fee).

Card benefits:

• 5% back at REI (on top of member dividends)

• 1.5% back on all other purchases

• $100 gift card after first purchase

• No annual fee

• No foreign transaction fees

• Double rewards during special events (10% back total)

Savings you can expect:

• Spend $2,000 yearly at REI: $100 back (5%)

• Spend $10,000 elsewhere: $150 back (1.5%)

• First-year bonus: $100 gift card

• Annual value: $350 first year, $250 ongoing

During member events with double rewards, a $500 purchase earns $50 back (10%). Stack this with the 20% member discount for massive savings. A $500 item costs $400 after discount, then earns $40 back.

We recommend this option if you spend $1,000+ annually at REI. The 5% back plus occasional 10% events beat most cashback cards for outdoor gear purchases.

The card may not be worth it if you rarely shop REI or already have a 2% cashback card. The 1.5% on other purchases loses to many free cards offering 2%. This is an REI shopping card, not a primary credit card.

REI separates discounts across two pages. The Deals section features clearance items up to 70% off, while the Coupons page lists active codes and bundle offers.

Deals page (red tab in navigation):

• Clearance items 30-70% off

• Flash categories like "Under $20" or "Under $50"

• End-of-season markdowns (deepest in February and August)

• Filter by category, brand, or discount percentage

Coupons page offers:

• displays current coupons and sales

• 10% off 3+ pairs of full-price socks

• 15% off cycle accessories bundles

• Brand-specific sales (20-30% off select Patagonia/North Face)

• Volume discounts on camping gear sets

Buy three pairs of $20 Smartwool socks with the 10% coupon and save $6. While it's not huge, you can stack it with member 20% off events and save $18 total. The cycle bundle (helmet, lights, lock) normally $150 drops to $127.50 with the 15% coupon.

We've seen the best deals appear during transition periods. Winter gear hits 50-70% off in February-March. Summer items drop similarly in August-September. A $300 jacket at 70% off costs $90. It's worth checking weekly during these periods.

The "Under $20" section mostly contains accessories and discontinued colors. It's worth checking here to stock up on basics, not necessarily for specific needs. Check both pages before any purchase since active coupons don't always appear at checkout automatically.
