TL;DR: Join Costco as a new Gold Star Member for $65 and receive a $45 Digital Costco Shop Card*.
Holiday shopping can mean separate trips for groceries, gifts, and gas. A 1-Year Costco Gold Star Membership may help you get those errands done in one place this season, and new Gold Star Members who join for $65 receive a $45 Digital Costco Shop Card*.
You can use your Digital Costco Shop Card* in the warehouse or on Costco.com, and you don’t have to spend the full $45 in one trip. Costco has more than 500 warehouses across the U.S., and your membership also works at Costco warehouses worldwide, Costco Business Centers, Costco Gas Stations, and Costco Travel. Each membership includes one Household Card for an individual living at your address.
This promotion is for new members and anyone whose membership has expired for more than 18 months. You must live in the U.S. or Puerto Rico to join. After checkout, you’ll receive a single-use promo code by email to enter when you sign up with Costco. Redeem it by January 31, 2027, and use a valid email address at sign-up, because Costco will send your Digital Costco Shop Card* to that address within two weeks.
