Earning Points
How does it work?
in stores: when checking out in stores, you can provide the PetSmart associate your account ID from the mobile app or mobile wallet to scan or give them your phone number or email address to look up your account.
online: when checking out online, be sure you are logged-in before you check out, and your purchases will automatically be credited to your Treats account once your items have shipped.
How are points calculated?
Members earn 8 points for every $1 spent on products, pet services (Grooming Salon, PetsHotel, Doggie Day Camp, Dog Training), and donations made to PetSmart Charities® online or at checkout in stores.
Can I bank my points?
Yes, you can accumulate points until you decide it is time to redeem them for dollars off your purchase.
How long are points valid?
Points will expire at the end of the month one year after the date they were earned. For example, if a member earned 100 points on March 15, 2019, the points will expire by March 31, 2020 if the points are not used.
How do I know if I have points expiring?
We will communicate to you via email when you have points that are about to expire.
Where can I find my account ID if I forgot it?
You don’t need your account ID. When you order online, you only need to be signed in and you’ll earn points for your order.
When do my points appear in my Treats account?
- For in-store purchases, you earn points immediately. (Unless our systems are down. In that case, we will process your points within 24 hours after your purchase.)
- For online purchases, points will be credited to your account within 24 hours after your order has shipped.
Do all my purchases count toward my points?
You can earn points on all your purchases, however, gift cards, shipping charges, discounts from vendor coupons (or other similar discount coupons), taxes, and tips are not eligible for points. See the Program Terms & Conditions for complete details.
Do I earn points on Services?
Yes, all Grooming, PetsHotel, Doggie Day Camp and Training Classes are eligible to earn points.
Do I earn points on Donations to PetSmart Charities®?
Yes, all cash donations at in-store or online checkout earn you points at the same ratio of 8 points per $1 donated. PetSmart Charities is very dear to our hearts and want to THANK YOU when you donate to help pets find forever homes!
What happens if an uneven amount is spent? Is there credit for the change?
Yes, every penny counts, if you spent $35.55 you will earn 284.4 points (8*35.55). In some places we won’t be able to display the points decimals but be rested, we will be tracking them for you!
Where can I find my points balance?
- Download the PetSmart app and log in or create an account, your points balance will appear on the homepage
- To check your Treats point balance, simply go to petsmart.com/treats-rewards. You will need to sign in or create an account to view your points.
- Every time you make a purchase in stores, your points balance will be listed at the bottom of your receipt.
- Watch for Treats emails.Make sure you are signed up for PetSmart emails
- Ask a cashier when shopping at a PetSmart store.
Can I earn base & bonus points on the same item/transaction?
Yes, members can earn base and bonus points on the same product/transaction. For example, members will earn 400 base points on a $50 qualifying purchase. If a "2X" multiplier offer is also applicable, the total points earned would be 800 (calculated as follows: 400 base points + 400 bonus points = 800 points).
Can bonus points offers be combined?
Sometimes, Treats may also offer a chance to combine two or more bonus offers on a qualifying purchase. When this occurs, base points are earned only once. For example, if a member buys $25 worth of cat food when we offer 2X points for that product, and another offer for 3X points on your entire purchase, the total points earned would be 800 points. Let's do the math: 200 base points (25*8) + 200 (25*8) bonus points from the 2X product specific bonus offer + 400 (25*16) bonus points from the 3X on your entire purchase = 800 points.
How can I check to see if I have any offers or points?
Most of bonus points promotions will be delivered via email, so make sure to opt-in to receive PetSmart emails. You can also check your offers and points balance on the PetSmart mobile app.
What is “offer activation”?
When we send you an email with a bonus points promotion, all you need to do to earn those bonus points is to click on the “activate” button and then go shop. You won’t need to present any coupon, and your bonus points will be credited automatically to your account.
What happens to my points when I return an item?
Any points earned on the merchandise is deducted from your points balance. For example, a returned merchandise value of $10 would deduct 80 points from your balance (8 points x $10 = 80 points). A negative points balance can result if you return a product with a point value greater than the amount of points in your account balance.
If I have more than one membership, can I transfer points between them?
No, if you have opened more than one membership by mistake, please call our Customer Care Team to address this issue.
What if I forgot to use my rewards card during an in-store purchase or during online checkout? How do I apply a missing transaction to my account?
Please call our customer care at 888-839-9638, just have your receipt handy and our customer service representative will be happy to help you.
Redeeming Points
How do I redeem my points in stores?
At checkout, ask the associate for your points balance. You can start redeeming when you have at least 1,000 available points.
- Points can only be redeemed at 1,000 points intervals
- Remember that every 1,000 points being redeemed gets you a $2.50 discount
Tell the associate you want to redeem your points. The amount of points being redeemed depends on qualifying products (excludes taxes, donations, gift cards, tips, cash back coupons) and your transaction subtotal (before tax). See examples below:
- You have 3,000 points on your balance and your transaction subtotal (before tax) is $7.50. When you ask our associate to redeem your points, we will redeem 3,000 points from your account and apply $7.50 in discount to your purchase and your new subtotal (before tax) will be $0.
- You have 3,000 points on your balance and your transaction subtotal (before tax) is $5.00. When you ask our associate to redeem your points, we will redeem 2,000 points from your account and apply $5.00 in discount to your purchase and your new subtotal (before tax) will be $0 and you will still have 1,000 points in your balance.
- You have 3,000 points on your balance and your transaction subtotal (before tax) is $10.00 but you are purchasing a $5.00 gift card, which is excluded from points redemption, bringing your qualifying subtotal to $5.00 (before tax). When you ask our associate to redeem your points, we will redeem 2,000 points from your account and apply $5.00 in discount to your purchase and your new subtotal (before tax) will be $5.00 (the amount for the gift card) and you will still have 1,000 points in your balance.
- You have 3,500 points on your balance and your transaction subtotal (before tax) is $10.00. When you ask our associate to redeem your points, we will redeem 3,000 points from your account and apply $7.50 in discount to your purchase and your new subtotal (before tax) will be $2.50 and you will still have 500 points in your balance.
How do I redeem my points online?
Make sure you are logged in to your PetSmart account. You can request to redeem you points in your cart. Just look at “treats available” during checkout at any time before you place your order.
Can I use my points with other discounts & specials offered by PetSmart?
Yes, your points can be combined with other discounts and special offers, as well as any form of payment accepted at PetSmart. For example, you can redeem your points and use a coupon we sent you via email in the same transaction.
What items do not qualify for point redemption?
Most products are eligible for point redemption. However, donations, gift cards, taxes, tips, cash back, recurring auto ship orders, and shipping fees are excluded. See Program Terms & Conditions for complete details.
What happens if I return a product I bought using points redemption?
When you redeem your points for a product purchase, please make sure you will keep the product as once points are redeemed they are forfeited for good and will not be re-instated to your account if you return the product you redeemed your points on.
Can I give my points to a friend or family member?
No, Treats points are not transferable.
