Macy's

The Macy's Credit Card is tailored for regular Macy's shoppers looking to earn rewards on department store purchases without paying an annual fee. While it can be used for everyday expenses, its earnings structure is distinctly focused on driving savings at Macy's.

Overview

Is the Macy's worth it?

This card is great for...

Macy's store purchases

No-annual-fee department store rewards

For devoted Macy's customers, earning Star Money on apparel, home goods, and beauty products offers simple, recurring savings on future store visits. Because the card has no annual fee, keeping it in your wallet costs nothing as long as you pay off your statement in full each month.

Outside of Macy's, however, the card's 1% return is underwhelming. Most everyday cardholders will get far more value from a standard flat-rate cash back card that yields 2% on all purchases with complete redemption flexibility.

MaxRewards Verdict

This card is a convenient companion for dedicated Macy's loyalists, but most spenders would be better served by a flat-rate cash back card for non-Macy's purchases.

Earning

Rewards

Purchases earn Star Money points, offering a higher reward rate when shopping at Macy's and a baseline rate on everything else.
