SAKSFIRST Guidelines & Restrictions
All Saks Fifth Avenue World Elite™ MasterCard® cardmembers are automatically enrolled in SAKSFIRST.
Purchases made inside Saks Fifth Avenue can only be applied towards the Saks Fifth Avenue line of credit. Purchases made outside of Saks Fifth Avenue can only be applied towards the MasterCard line of credit. You must acquire a total of 2,000 points in a calendar year in order to receive a SAKSFIRST Gift Card. 2,000 point minimum can consist of any combination of base points or bonus points earned inside or outside of Saks Fifth Avenue.
Cardmembers earn 2 base points per eligible dollar spent from $1-$4,999 for calendar year-to-date net purchases at Saks Fifth Avenue, retroactive to the first dollar spent that year. At the $5,000 eligible net spend threshold, cardmembers will earn 4 base points per eligible dollar thereafter up to $9,999 on calendar year-to-date net purchases at Saks Fifth Avenue. At the $10,000 eligible net spend threshold, cardmembers will earn 6 base points per eligible dollar on calendar year-to-date net purchases at Saks Fifth Avenue thereafter. Eligible spend is based on qualifying purchases made inside Saks Fifth Avenue stores and at saks.com.
Cardmembers will receive 1 SAKSFIRST point per dollar spent outside of Saks Fifth Avenue and at Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5TH.
Saks Fifth Avenue purchases not eligible for SAKSFIRST points include sales tax, delivery, alterations, repairs, restaurants, fur storage and fur remodels or alterations, beauty salon products and services, Estée Lauder purchases at Saks Fifth Avenue Off 5th, The Company Store at Saks Fifth Avenue, gratuities and Gift Cards. The dollar value of the SAKSFIRST Gift Card is determined based on 1% of total net points accumulated. Net points comprise base points plus bonus points less points redeemed (or adjusted) in conjunction with special offers in the calendar year.
Every Saks account will be treated separately for accumulation and redemption of total points. However, purchases made on a Major Purchase Account during the program year will count toward primary account point totals. SAKSFIRST Gift Cards and any other exclusive SAKSFIRST privileges are non transferable. Your account must be open and in good credit standing to be eligible for a redemption. Returns of merchandise and other financial adjustments will be deducted from the total point balance for the current year. Corporate accounts are not eligible to participate.
SAKSFIRST Gift Cards become void and/or may be adjusted upon return of qualifying merchandise. SAKSFIRST Gift Cards must be surrendered to Saks Fifth Avenue upon demand. Merchandise returns without the associated SAKSFIRST Gift Card may be refused. Saks Fifth Avenue reserves the right to adjust the original merchandise purchase transaction (including debiting your account) for any SAKSFIRST Gift Card not surrendered with the associated merchandise return.
The SAKSFIRST Gift Card has no cash value and is not a coupon for a discount or a markdown on merchandise. SAKSFIRST Gift Cards cannot be applied to current account balances, cannot be used to purchase Gift Cards, cannot be used on Estée Lauder purchases at Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5TH, and can only be used for future purchases. The SAKSFIRST Gift Card is not transferable and expires 90 days from the date of issuance unless otherwise specified in the accompanying SAKSFIRST Gift Card materials.
SAKSFIRST offers are subject to availability. Saks Fifth Avenue reserves the right to change or discontinue the SAKSFIRST program, rewards, guidelines and restrictions at any time.
Employees of Saks Fifth Avenue and its affiliated companies are not eligible to participate in SAKSFIRST.
