Saks Fifth Avenue Promo Codes + Cashback

Rewards members get points with every dollar spent that you can then redeem on future purchases. When you hit spending minimums, you'll also earn access to new perks:

• Spend $2500/year for early access to sales

• Hit $10,000/year to get faster shipping and valet parking

• Reach $25,000+/year for luxury upgrades like in-home styling and “Try Before You Buy” access

The two Saks credit card options go hand-in-hand with the SaksFirst rewards program. You can also open up Saks credit cards, which are payment options that also come with perks and rewards. You don't have to have the credit card to be a rewards member, but being a cardholder does mean you are automatically in the SaksFirst rewards program. Note that card members will need to make on-time payments to avoid interest, so if that's not something you expect to do, definitely avoid the card.

For frequent Saks shoppers, opening a credit card is worth it. People who are likely to spend a lot in a year at Saks are more earn savings and benefit from exclusive discounts. For occasional shoppers who aren't likely to spend as much per year, the credit card likely isn't worth it. Anyone can sign up for just a SaksFirst rewards account without opening a card, and that's an easy, low-stakes thing to do to earn rewards. You will see the most rewards when you spend a lot, but there's no harm in being a rewards member regardless.

A quick way to save on shipping costs is to take advantage of the Saks in-store pickup option. It's easiest to select your local store before you start shopping. This way, you can view items that are available at the location that works best for you. Even if the item isn't available, you can sometimes still ship it to the store, but it's helpful to see what the store has in stock if you need an item quickly. Know that items are subject to availability and each store has unique inventory and item eligibility. So, some things may not be available at certain stores.

The option is labeled "Get It Fast", and selecting this allows you to order your items to the store with no shipping cost. Know that you'll need your government-issued ID and your "Ready to Pick Up" email handy when you arrive at your local store to get your items. They give you 7 full days after the order is ready to pick it up, which does allow you time to plan and avoid rushing. But, do make sure you don't wait longer than 7 days, because Saks will restock and refund you for the item. It's best to place an in-store pickup order if you know you're around and will have time to go get it. For times when you know you'll be too busy to make your way to a store, paying for shipping is your best bet.

Customers can finance their Saks Fifth Avenue orders using Klarna at checkout. Klarna is best for shoppers who want to buy something but can't necessarily pay for it all at once. You can put 25% down and then pay off the rest in automatic payments every two weeks. It's a good tactic to split up an order over a period of time to make the price more digestible. It's important to note that missing a payment or paying late will likely result in interest. If you think you may forget to pay on time, it may be better to try to pay off your order at once and avoid Klarna.
