The REI Credit Card offers price protection within 120 days of purchase if an item bought entirely with the card drops in price. You can file a claim if you find the identical product advertised for less, potentially getting refunded the difference up to a maximum of $250 per item and $1,000 per account per year.
Below is a detailed explanation.
The REI Credit Card offers price protection if an item you buy entirely with the card drops in price within 120 days of purchase. To get coverage, you must pay for the full purchase with your REI Credit Card (no mixed payments). Keep an eye on the item’s sale price at both online and local eligible retailers over the next 4 months.
If you spot an identical product advertised for less, file a claim by calling the number below. Reimbursement is issued based on the maximum limits in the table:
| Price Protection Detail | Limit |
|---|---|
| Timeframe for price drop after purchase | Within 120 days |
| Maximum refund per item | $250 |
| Maximum refund per account per year | $1,000 |
So if that camping tent you regretted buying goes on sale next month at REI, you may get refunded the difference. You may file a claim on the REI website or Call: 877-734-6060
When filling claim form, you need to provide the purchase date, item details, original and lower prices, and the merchant advertising it. If everything checks out per the coverage terms, a reimbursement check is issued for the dollar difference, up to the stated maximum within 14 days of filing a claim.
So if big-ticket gear goes on sale after you pay in full with your REI Credit Card, price protection can ease buyer’s remorse. Contact the number above within 120 days and provide the documentation needed to submit your claim.
