By now you likely heard about the new Target Rewards Program Called Target Circle 360? What is Target Circle 360? Target Circle 360 is a new paid membership that includes unlimited free same-day delivery for orders over $35 in as little as under an hour with no delivery free plus free two day shipping along with other perks that Target hasn’t yet revealed. According to reports they are looking at a “wide range” of other benefits to sweeten the membership offer and to get you to pay $49 a year for it.
Target Circle 360 launches April and initially you can snag it for $49 per a year but that offer ends May 18th and when it renews it will be $99 a year or it will remain at $49 if you have a Target Circle Credit Card.
Target has plans to relaunch their original Target Circle Loyalty Program as well and they’ll be a cool perk where you no longer have to apply coupons in the app to get them as they’ll now automatically be applied to your purchases. They’ll also be rebranding their Target Red credit card program with the Circle Credit Card getting you 5% off purchases, free two-day shipping, and extended time on returns.
Apparently they are attempting to boost weak sales as earnings have been down for three quarters which surprises me as my Target is always busy as hell with people strolling around with carts and carts of stuff! But this is also, a direct hit to Amazon Prime and Walmart+ as both these programs were around pre-Target Circle 360. According to Walmart their regular customers don’t spend nearly as much as their Walmart+ Members and I’m sure Target is hopeful to see the same sales boost by introducing this new rewards program.
I could see myself joining Target Circle 360 as I find online shopping easier, more convenient, and just time saving compared to heading out to my local store which is always busy and has lousy parking (it’s underground parking which I hate). Don’t get me wrong I like taking long, romantic strolls down the Target aisle as much as the next girl but sometimes I’m too busy to take the time to do so and this program sounds great!
Be on the look out for your chance to join Target Circle 360 starting in April!
