Not sure if a Costco membership is the right fit for you? Right now, new members who enroll in auto renewal and sign up for a Gold Star Membership will get a $20 Digital Costco Shop Card, and new members who sign up for an Executive Membership will receive a $40 Digital Costco Shop Card. Use the promo code CJDTM at sign-up. Make sure to check the terms and conditions for exact details.

What is the Digital Costco Shop Card?

The Digital Costco Shop Card is a reloadable gift card that can be used to make purchases at a Costco location and online. 

Why you should become a Costco member

You must be a Costco member to shop at Costco warehouses or to receive member-only pricing on Costco.com. That means nonmembers miss out on warehouse finds, including TVs, laptops, headphones and more. A Costco membership also gives you access to exclusive value through Costco Travel, Costco Services and much more.

The Costco Gold Star Membership—which gets you the $20 Digital Costco Shop Card for this promotion—costs $65 per year and gives you and a member of your household access to Costco warehouses and Costco.com. Costco gives its satisfaction guarantee, so you can cancel and get a refund at any time if you aren’t happy with your membership.

The Costco Executive Membership—which gets you a $40 Digital Costco Shop Card with this promotion—costs $130 per year. It gives you the same benefits as the Gold Star Membership and also provides exclusive benefits only available to Executive Members. You get an annual 2% Reward on Costco and Costco travel purchases (up to $1,250 per year) *, and you can get exclusive discounts and added value on Costco Services.

Sign up as a new member for a Costco membership and auto renewal of your annual membership to get a $20 or $40 Digital Costco Shop Card. During checkout, use the code CJDTM to receive this promotion. Check the terms and conditions for more details.

*To receive a Digital Costco Shop Card, you must provide a valid email address and set up auto renewal of your Costco membership on a Visa® credit/debit card or Mastercard debit card at the time of sign-up. If you elect not to enroll in auto renewal at the time of sign-up, incentives will not be emailed. Valid only for new members and those whose memberships (Primary and Household) have been expired for at least 18 months. Valid only for nonmembers for their first year of membership. Not valid for upgrade or renewal of an existing membership. Promotion may not be combined with any other promotion. Digital Costco Shop Card will be emailed to the email address provided by the Primary Member at time of sign-up within 2 weeks after successful sign-up and enrollment in auto renewal. Digital Costco Shop Card is not redeemable for cash, except as required by law. Costco is not liable for incentives not received due to entry of an invalid address during sign-up. Digital Costco Shop Cards are not accepted at the U.S. or Canada Food Court. Neither Costco Wholesale Corporation nor its affiliates are responsible for use of the card without your permission. Use the provided single-use promo code when entering your payment information. A Costco Gold Star Membership is $65 a year. An Executive Membership is an additional $65 upgrade fee a year. Each membership includes one free Household Card. May be subject to sales tax. Costco accepts all Visa cards, as well as cash, checks, debit/ATM cards, EBT and Costco Shop Cards. Departments and product selection may vary. (Note: You will see a $0.01 deduction on your membership cost after the promo code is entered. This indicates that your promo code has been successfully applied)

ezCater is solving a workplace challenge most businesses didn’t see coming
As workplace meals become more closely tied to business outcomes, organizations are looking for smarter ways to manage food ordering at scale.
Brunch, Food, Lunch

Most companies have spent the past decade modernizing the way they work. Procurement has become digital. Travel is easier to manage. HR, payroll, and finance all run on dedicated platforms built for business. Yet one area often remains surprisingly fragmented: food for the workplace.

A team lunch might be ordered through one vendor, while a client meeting is catered by another. Someone schedules breakfast for an onboarding session using a consumer delivery app, and another employee submits receipts days later for reimbursement. Before long, budgets are spread across multiple systems, invoices live in different inboxes, and workplace teams spend valuable time coordinating meals instead of focusing on the work they were hired to do.

The Cost of Tool Sprawl: Why Businesses Are Ditching Multiple Apps
Bitrix24 brings an end to the “one more app” mindset at work
Person, Face, Head

Every company starts with a few simple tools. You pick one app for messaging, another for projects, and a third for file storage. At first, this setup works well. Over time, however, these pieces create a fragmented picture that makes everyday work difficult. This is the hidden cost of scaling. As a business grows, departments adopt specialized software, and every new hire must navigate a dozen different platforms. Managing this sprawling tech stack eventually turns into a full-time job. More importantly, many of these tools charge per user, so every new employee increases costs, while flat-rate platforms such as Bitrix24 keep pricing predictable as you grow. At the same time, leaders are realizing that having fewer, more capable tools is just as important as the way those tools are priced.
