Archived Discount Card Alternative

[ntauctions]

Anyone laminate their discount card? Or find a way to print the barcode onto a plastic card? I go through a card every few weeks that either gets bent or distorted to a point that it won't scan. Some cashier's are cool with keying in the discount manually while others aren't. I've thought about taking a pic of the barcode from a new card and scanning that from my phone at the register instead but haven't gotten the new card yet.

Anyone have a more durable alternative to the flimsy paper card?

Discount card on your phone

Take a pic of it and have the cashier scan it? Or is there an option in the target app, cartwheel?

My discount card is laminated.

I use the Mobile Pocket Loyalty Cards on my iPhone for my TM Discount, Cartwheel barcodes, and any other store discount/loyalty cards.

My discount card is laminated.

I've always laminated mine too, along with my cartwheel bar code!

Ask your HRTM to laminate it for you. I laminate them for our team members. I thought it was standard across stores but maybe not.

I laminated mine as well. I just wish I had thought to print out my Cartwheel barcode and slip it into the same cover....

My team and I also laminate it for TMs.

Yeah, sadly, not all stores do it. Whenever I shop at another Target, they are amazed at my laminated card.

I laminated mine at a FedEx office store.

 

[Ahem]

I added mine to the Android pay app as a loyalty card. I believe Apple wallet or passbook or whatever they're calling it now allows the same thing

My husband took mine and taped it to an old credit card.

 

[Hardlinesmaster]

Mine is laminate & on my phone too.

 

[Badjedidude]

I actually never stopped to think about that, but we have a laminating machine in the office with HR.

I should just have them do it for me.

 

[PogDog]

I made a copy of my discount code and taped it to my redcard.

My discount card is laminated.

Mine came prelaminated, I thought that was just standard?

Sadly not.

The cards arrive on a sheet of paper with the checks. HR has to carefully tear it out and then laminate it for you.

Congrats! You have an HR team that laminates the cards.

Your HR team laminated it for you

 

[Malkiacera]

I have mine laminated, but I've seen TM's that cut out the barcode and tape it to the back of their redcard. No need to worry about taking both out that way.

also another alternative is they make single laminate sheets i buy them and laminate my own discount card dont have to bother anyone that way!
