Get 6% Cash Back at Ace Hardware With Latest Apple Card Promotion

[MacRumors]

Apple Card holders can get extra Daily Cash back when making purchases at Ace Hardware during the month of June, according to a new email Apple started sending out today.

From now until June 30, Apple Card users who make a purchase at Ace Hardware can earn six percent cash back instead of the standard three percent cash back. Getting the extra cash requires Ace customers to use Apple Pay with the Apple Card specifically, and the promotion is limited to up to $500 in purchases.

Apple Card owners who spend $500 at Ace Hardware will earn a total of $30 in Daily Cash during the month. Purchases can be made at participating Ace Hardware stores, the Ace Hardware website, and the Ace mobile app.

Apple partners with several retailers to offer three percent Daily Cash back on ‌‌Apple Pay‌‌ purchases made with ‌‌Apple Card‌‌, including Ace Hardware. Three percent cash back can also be earned from Panera Bread, T-Mobile, Nike, Uber Eats, Uber, Panera, Walgreens, Exxon Mobil, and Apple's own retail stores.

Standard ‌‌Apple Pay‌‌ purchases earn two percent cash back, and all other purchases earn one percent.

I just spent over a hundred there last week.

I just spent over a hundred there last week.

Apple seems to run this promotion at regular intervals, at least once or twice a year from what I’ve seen, and I purposely wait until then to get anything I may need from Ace Hardware haha. There’s one in my neighborhood so it’s convenient too. It’s nice because I knock out a few things on my home hardware wishlist and get a little Apple Cash bonus at the same time.

There were actually a couple things I was thinking of getting from Ace Hardware so this is perfect timing.

Beware Ace might be the helpful place but the return policy (if the item can even be returned) is nothing compared to Lowe's or Home Depot. You have been warned.

1) Rebuy everything you bought last week
2) Return everything purchased from Step #1 using (old) receipt from last week
3) Profit!

Whether the time and effort is worth the 6% ($6-$10?) is up to you though 🤷‍♂️

Using Ace Hardware is like shopping for groceries at a gas station. But I still use one for small items. If anyone is planning to make $500 in purchases Ace is not the place.

 

[MacAndMic]

If you’re in the market for a mower or a grill, might be the place.

Also, Lowe's give an immediate 10% discount to US veterans and has no $500 limit. So, I'll stay with Lowe's.

Well, they've run out of AI headlines, so now back to financial engineering.

For these kinds of items that will cost the same at the big box store, I’ll gladly give a locally owned store my business. Ace is also great if you know you need hardware to fix something, but not precisely what you need, as I find their staff to be more knowledgeable about DIY stuff.

I use my neighborhood Ace a few times a month but that does not change the fact their prices are at convenience store levels. If the 6% cash back is the motivation to make a $500 purchase, then you can pay full price elsewhere and save more. Again I like Ace and use them but it isn’t because a customer will save money there.

I gladly pay near-equal to slightly higher prices of Lowe’s at my local ACE just to avoid the hassle of traffic, parking, and forced self-checkout. My local ACE is 2 miles closer, in a smaller shopping center, friendly staff, and they will check me out rather than ignoring me and forcing me to use self-checkout at Lowe’s.

Yeah, but then I'd have to go to Home Depot or Lowes 😬😬

Great. I can now buy a tap and die and some WD 40.

LOL

That very very briefly crossed my mind. I got 3% from Apple Card on the purchase so I'd have to go through all that for about $4. Not worth it. Half would be spent driving to and from Ace with my lovely 12MPG. 🥲

I think the T-mobile 3% cash back is no longer a thing since T-Mobile stopped allowing Apple Pay for billing. If I recall correctly, the 3% was only for use with Apple Pay.

You can still get it for in store/online purchases. Just not your phone bill.

Wanna buy that new phone: No Apple Store near by, but you got a T-Mobile, get it there.

Surprised ACE isn't bankrupt. Limited locations, higher prices, and doesn't provide anything different than HD and Lowes. Apple did have 6% at Nike earlier this year...

I’m surprised too, but at the same time I see their commercials a fair amount and I know exactly how their jingle/slogan goes lol so I figure they’re doing ok.

and oh yeah I took advantage of that Nike one!

There are two Ace Hardware locations with 10 minutes of my home. I find their prices to be extremely competitive with the big box stores (Lowe’s and HD). The staff at both locations is helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. And they accept ApplePay. #winning

Apple Card US only. 😢
