Costco’s popular P&G promotion is back, giving members an opportunity to earn up to $60 in Costco Shop Cards on products many households already use.
From August 24 through September 20, 2026, Costco members can earn a $25 Costco Shop Card after spending $100 on participating Procter & Gamble products. Members who reach $200 in qualifying purchases can earn another $35 Shop Card, bringing the total reward to $60.
That works out to a 30% return when you spend exactly $200.
Even better, you don’t need to buy everything during one enormous Costco run. Qualifying purchases can be spread across multiple shopping trips, and receipts from Costco warehouses, Costco.com and Costco Same-Day can count.
There is one important catch: The Shop Cards are not issued automatically. You have to submit your qualifying receipts to receive them.
Here is how Costco’s P&G promotion works and what you need to do to earn the full $60.
How Costco’s P&G Shop Card Promotion Works
The 2026 promotion has two reward levels:
- Spend $100 on qualifying P&G products and receive a $25 Costco Shop Card.
- Reach $200 in qualifying purchases and receive an additional $35 Costco Shop Card.
- Earn a maximum of $60 in Costco Shop Cards per membership number.
The $100 or $200 total is calculated after Costco’s instant discounts have been deducted but before taxes, shipping and other fees.
For example, suppose a participating detergent normally costs $29.99 but is currently $5 off. Only the discounted price of $24.99 will count toward the promotion.
Be careful when calculating your total. Your entire Costco receipt does not count—only the eligible P&G products purchased during the promotional period.
Why Spending $200 Gives You the Best Value
Members who spend $100 receive a $25 Shop Card, which is the equivalent of getting 25% back.
When your qualifying total reaches $200, you can receive $60 altogether. That increases your effective reward to 30%.
Here’s the breakdown:
- $100 in qualifying purchases earns $25 back.
- $200 in qualifying purchases earns a total of $60 back.
- Purchases above $200 do not earn a larger reward.
If your goal is to maximize the promotion, try to get your eligible total as close to $200 as possible. Spending $230 instead of $200 will not increase your Shop Card amount.
Of course, the deal is only worthwhile if you purchase products your family will actually use. Fortunately, many of the participating items are practical household staples with long shelf lives.
You Can Combine Multiple Costco Receipts
You are not required to spend $200 in a single Costco transaction.
Qualifying purchases can be made during several Costco visits as long as they fall between August 24 and September 20, 2026.
For example, your purchases could be divided this way:
- First Costco trip: $68 in eligible P&G products
- Second Costco trip: $54 in eligible P&G products
- Third Costco trip: $78 in eligible P&G products
- Total qualifying purchases: $200
- Total Shop Card reward: $60
This makes it easier to shop strategically instead of buying more than you can comfortably fit in your cart, car or storage space.
You can also combine qualifying purchases made in a Costco warehouse with eligible orders from Costco.com or Costco Same-Day.

Selection varies by Costco location, and not every warehouse will carry the same sizes or varieties. If you are unsure whether a particular item qualifies, check the promotional signs in the warehouse or look for the P&G Shop Card promotion notice on the Costco product page.
Many Participating Products Are Also on Sale
The P&G promotion overlaps with Costco’s current member savings event, which also runs from August 24 through September 20.
Several popular P&G products are included in the savings book, allowing members to receive Costco’s instant discount while also working toward the Shop Card reward.
Depending on the selection at your warehouse, discounted products may include:
- Bounty Advanced Paper Towels
- Cascade Platinum Plus Dishwasher Pods
- Tide Liquid Laundry Detergent
- Tide Laundry Detergent Pods
- Tide Free & Gentle Laundry Detergent
- Gain + OXI Laundry Detergent
- Dawn Platinum Advanced Dishwashing Liquid
- Downy Scent Beads
- Downy Fabric Softener
- Bounce Dryer Sheets
This is essentially an opportunity to save twice. You receive the advertised Costco discount at checkout and then use the discounted purchase amount to qualify for the P&G Shop Cards.
Just remember that the original price does not count toward your spending threshold. If Tide is $5 off, the price after that $5 discount is the amount applied to your promotional total.
What Should You Buy to Reach $200?
Start with products that your household already uses regularly.
Laundry detergent, dishwasher pods, toilet paper, paper towels and cleaning products are often the easiest items to stock up on because they do not spoil quickly.
You could also include personal-care necessities such as shampoo, toothpaste, razors, deodorant and feminine-care products.
Before shopping, check your laundry room, bathrooms and cleaning closet. Make a list of products that you will realistically need over the next several months.
Avoid purchasing an unfamiliar product simply to reach $200. Costco sizes are large, and even a generous Shop Card reward is not a bargain if the product sits unused.
How to Submit Your Costco Receipts
To claim your reward, visit GetPGOffer.com and register for the 2026 Costco P&G promotion.
The promotional website requires a separate account. Your regular Costco.com password will not automatically work there.
You will need to provide your Costco membership number, contact information and a valid U.S. mailing address. Make sure the last name used during registration matches the last name connected to your Costco membership.
For Costco Warehouse Purchases
Select the warehouse receipt option, indicate how many participating products appear on your receipt and follow the instructions to upload a clear image.
If you have several receipts, submit each receipt separately.
For Costco.com Purchases
Select the Costco.com order option and enter the qualifying order number.
Costco.com orders must be submitted online and cannot be mailed in.
For Costco Same-Day or Instacart Purchases
Select the Instacart or Same-Day option and follow the instructions for forwarding your delivery confirmation receipt.
The receipt must be forwarded from the email address you used to register. Do not edit the original email’s subject line or message.
When Is the Receipt Submission Deadline?
Qualifying products must be purchased between August 24 and September 20, 2026.
However, members have until October 31, 2026, to submit their receipts. Online submissions must be completed by 11:59:59 p.m. Pacific Time on that date, while mail-in claims must be postmarked by October 31.
Even with the later deadline, it is better to submit receipts shortly after each shopping trip.
Submitting early lets you track how much of your purchase was approved and gives you time to address a missing or incorrectly processed item.
The website allows a maximum of three receipts to be pending at one time. Once one of those receipts has been processed, you can upload another.
Keep Your Receipts Until You Receive Your Reward
Do not throw away your original receipts immediately after uploading them.
Keep them until your submissions have been approved and both Shop Cards have arrived. A clear original receipt can be helpful if the system misses a qualifying item or credits the wrong amount.
If you lose a warehouse receipt, Costco may be able to print a copy for you at the membership counter. Online receipts can usually be retrieved through your Costco.com or Instacart account.
Should You Choose a Digital or Physical Shop Card?
During registration, you can choose to receive either a digital or physical Costco Shop Card.
Choose carefully because the promotion does not allow you to change your delivery preference after registration.
A physical Shop Card will be mailed to the address provided with your submission. A digital Shop Card will arrive by email with instructions for claiming it.
Shop Cards are generally sent two to four weeks after a submission has been approved.
If you select the digital option, watch your email carefully. The digital reward must be claimed by December 31, 2026, or it will be forfeited. Check your spam folder if you do not see the email in your inbox.
Where Can You Use the Shop Cards?
Costco Shop Cards can be used for future purchases in Costco warehouses and on Costco.com.
Digital Shop Cards are not accepted at Costco food courts or directly at Costco gas pumps. However, they can be used for most regular merchandise purchases inside the warehouse.
Costco Shop Cards do not expire, so you do not have to spend the reward immediately after receiving it.
Mistakes That Could Cost You the Reward
There are several easy mistakes to avoid when participating in the promotion.
Counting Your Total Before Discounts
Only the amount paid after Costco’s instant savings counts. Add up the discounted prices to confirm that you have reached $100 or $200.
Including Non-P&G Products
Your entire Costco purchase does not qualify. Groceries, Kirkland Signature products and items from other manufacturers will not help you reach the threshold.
Throwing Away Your Receipts
Save every qualifying receipt until your claim is approved and the reward arrives.
Forgetting to Submit the Claim
Buying $200 in participating products is not enough by itself. You must register and submit your purchase information by the October 31 deadline.
Using Information That Does Not Match Your Membership
The last name on your registration must match your Costco membership information, and your membership must still be valid when the claim is processed.
Returning a Qualifying Product
The promotion applies to final purchases. Returning an item used to reach the promotional threshold may void the corresponding reward.
Is Costco’s P&G Shop Card Deal Worth It?
For households that regularly use the participating brands, this is one of Costco’s better stock-up promotions.
Spending $200 to earn $60 back is already a strong offer. Combining the Shop Card reward with Costco’s current discounts makes the savings even better.
The best strategy is to focus on necessities with a long shelf life, spread the purchases across multiple Costco trips if needed and stop once your qualifying total reaches approximately $200200.
Remember that the promotion ends September 20, 2026, and the reward is not automatic. Save your receipts, submit them through GetPGOffer.com and keep copies until your full $60 in Costco Shop Cards arrives.
