Sam's Club Mastercard Cardholders Can Now Earn More Sam's Cash on Electronic Vehicle Charging Nationwide

BENTONVILLE, Ark. and STAMFORD, Conn., April 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- In conjunction with Earth Day, Sam's Club (NYSE: WMT), a leading membership warehouse club, and Synchrony (NYSE: SYF), a premier consumer financial services company, today announced a reward on the Sam's Club Mastercard that provides additional value for cardholders when charging an electric vehicle (EV).  

Beginning May 1st, members with a Sam's Club Mastercard will earn five percent back in Sam's Cash on EV charges at eligible EV charging stations in the United States. In a special electric vehicle charging promotion, cardholders will earn an additional 5 percent back on EV charges for a total of 10 percent back in Sam's Cash for the entire month of May.

"We are continuously evaluating credit card rewards and features that will recognize cardholders for doing things that make a difference, like choosing to personally help the environment by driving an electric vehicle," said Tom Quindlen, EVP and CEO of Diversified and Value, Synchrony. "We are proud to continue to build on our 25-plus year strategic partnership with Sam's Club to offer programs that deliver more than just rewards to members, but help to make an environmental impact for the long term. Together we are making a sustainability commitment for our cardholders."

"At Sam's Club, we put the member at the center of all we do, so we're constantly looking for ways to deliver them even more value – not only through the items and prices we offer, but through every interaction they have with us, including with the Sam's Club Mastercard," said Ciara Anfield, Senior Vice President, Chief Member and Marketing Officer, Sam's Club. "Earlier this year we launched Sam's Cash – a new loyalty rewards program that simplified the way members earn and spend rewards. The addition of a way for members with a Sam's Club Mastercard to earn more Sam's Cash when they charge their EV, on top of our existing program, is yet another way we are working hard to offer an incredible value every day."

There are nearly 50,000 charging stations for electric vehicles throughout the United States.
