What a Lowe's gift card gets you
Beyond the obvious Lowe's checkout, the same card spends on Lowes.com and at the in-store Pro Desk, and it covers more than merchandise — it pays for installation services, appliance haul-away, tool and equipment rental, and even garden-center plants. Unlike a bank-issued Visa or Mastercard gift card, there are no activation or per-purchase fees, and the balance never gets whittled down by dormancy charges.
two formats:
- Physical card: Mailed in a card sleeve. $5 to $2,000 per card via lowes.com.
- E-gift card: Emailed within minutes, redeemable online or shown on phone in store. $5 to $2,000 per card via lowes.com; $5 to $500 via Dyme. Can be added to Apple Wallet or Google Pay.
You can stack multiple cards in a single transaction in store or online, with no documented cap on how many.

Can I get a Lowe's gift card at a discount?
Yes, but not through Dyme. Dyme sells Lowe's e-gift cards at face value; the value-add is Dyme Miles, paperless delivery, and supporting renewable energy projects, not a face-value discount. The discount channels are:
- Costco or Sam's Club, in store. Periodic multi-pack discounts on physical Lowe's cards, often a few percent below face. Supply rotates and isn't always available. Physical only, club membership required.
- Secondary marketplaces (Raise, CardCash). Resold gift cards from third parties, typically a few percent below face value. Verify the balance before redeeming, since secondary sellers occasionally list cards with partial balances.
- Lowe's direct promo codes. Rare. Lowe's runs occasional sitewide promotions on lowes.com but typically excludes gift-card SKUs.
The bigger combined return comes from the rewards stack below: your credit card, MyLowe's Rewards at redemption, and Dyme Miles on the purchase. Most buyers leave that money on the table.
How to stack rewards
Three rewards programs fire on a single Lowe's gift card purchase through Dyme.
Credit-card rewards
Your credit card earns rewards on the Dyme purchase.
Gift-card resellers typically code as MCC 5947; many cards exclude this MCC from category bonuses.
- Capital One Venture X: 2x miles on essentially every purchase, including gift cards
- Citi Double Cash: 2% back on everything (1% when you buy + 1% when you pay)
- Amex Gold: falls back to 1x on gift cards. 4x dining and 4x groceries do not apply
- Chase Sapphire Preferred: falls back to 1x on gift cards. 3x dining and 2x travel do not apply
MyLowe's Rewards
- Join cost: free
- Applies at: redemption
- Earning rate: Points on eligible purchases, redeemable for Lowe's credit
- Reward threshold: Members reach perks and bonus-point offers as they spend; free shipping on eligible orders
MyLowe's Rewards does not earn on the gift card purchase. It earns on the merchandise when you redeem, at the same rate as paying with cash or credit.
Dyme Miles
- Base rate: 1 Mile for every dollar
- Special rate: 5 Miles per dollar
- Expiration: never
- Blackouts: none
- Redeem on: over 2 million hotels and 600 airline partners
$100 Lowe's e-gift on Dyme, paid with Citi Double Cash, redeemed by a MyLowe's Rewards member
- Citi Double Cash: $2 back (2% of $100)
- MyLowe's Rewards at redemption: Points on the eligible merchandise, toward Lowe's credit
- Dyme Miles on the purchase: 100 Miles (1 per dollar), or 500 on a special offer (5 per dollar)
Illustrative only. Card rates, brand-program terms, and Dyme Miles offers change and vary by member; figures above are examples, not a guarantee of value.

How to buy on lowes.com
- Go to lowes.com/l/gift-cards.html.
- Choose physical or e-gift, then pick a design and the amount.
- Add to cart and check out. Lowe's does not run a member discount on gift cards, and MyLowe's Rewards points do not accrue on gift-card purchases.
How to buy in store
Any Lowe's register sells gift cards, and so does the Pro Desk. Tell an associate the amount you want, pay with cash, credit, or another gift card, and walk out with the card. There's no minimum and you can load any whole-dollar amount from $5 to $2,000.
How to buy at Costco, Sam's Club, or a supermarket
Costco and Sam's Club periodically run multi-pack Lowe's gift cards at a discount. Stock and pricing rotate. Supermarket gift-card racks at Kroger, Safeway, Albertsons, and Stop & Shop carry $25, $50, and $100 cards at face value. You pay no discount but earn the supermarket's loyalty points and any fuel rewards that apply to gift-card purchases.
Designs and personalization
Physical cards: multiple designs in the Lowe's online catalog, including seasonal options for holiday, Father's Day, graduation, and housewarming. A card sleeve and a personal message printed inside are available at checkout.
E-gift cards: multiple designs, customizable subject line, and a recipient message.
There is no co-branded option for individual purchase. For bulk and business orders, see corporate ordering below.
Delivery and timing
- E-gift via Dyme: 1 to 60 minutes by email. Add to Apple Wallet or Google Pay directly from the email.
- E-gift via lowes.com: 1 to 60 minutes by email.
- Physical via lowes.com: 5 to 10 business days standard. Express options available at checkout.
- Physical in store or at a retailer: Immediate — walk out with the card.
Dyme does not mail physical cards. If you need a physical card in hand, lowes.com or a retail aisle is the path.
Corporate and bulk buying
Lowe's runs a business and bulk gift-card program through Lowe's for Pros, with volume discounts on larger orders, custom denominations, and bulk invoicing. It's a fit for contractors, property managers, and companies funding employee or customer rewards. Contact the Lowe's business gift-card team to start an order.
