Macy's Promo Codes, Star Rewards & Savings

At Macy's the free Star Rewards membership brings free shipping from $39, free mail returns and $10 in Star Money for every 1,000 points. Add the 10-day price adjustment and the one-code-per-order rule.

Does Macy's have promo codes?

Yes. Macy's lists current offers on its Macy's Coupons page and shows codes in the offer details on product pages — in October 2026, for example, SAVE40 for 40% off a second pair of sunglasses. Only one promo code can be used per order.[10, 11, 15]

Our verdict

Join Star Rewards for free before you check out — Bronze members get free standard shipping from $39 and free return shipping, which costs non-members $9.99 plus tax. If the price drops within 10 days of your order, ask Macy's for a price adjustment, and spend Star Money quickly: it expires 30 days after it's issued.

Ordered by what each is typically worth to a regular shopper — the biggest saving first.

  1. Join Star Rewards for free and sign in before you pay

    Free shipping at $39, free mail returnsLow effortUS residents 18 or older

    Bronze, the free level of Star Rewards, needs no credit card. Members get free standard shipping on orders of $39 or more (Macy's lists $49 for other shoppers), free return shipping by mail instead of a $9.99 fee, 1 point per $1 on eligible purchases, Star Money Bonus Days and a birthday surprise. Online, free shipping and points only apply when you're signed in to a macys.com account linked to your membership.[1, 3, 4, 7, 8]

    1. Join free at macys.com/starrewards or in a Macy's store.
    2. Link the membership to your macys.com account.
    3. Sign in before you check out so free shipping and points apply.
  2. Check Macy's own offers page for a promo code

    Whatever the current code takes offLow effortAnyone shopping online

    Macy's points shoppers to its Macy's Coupons page (All Active Offers) to see current promotions and check which promo code applies; the offer details on product pages also show codes. In October 2026, code SAVE40 took 40% off the cheaper of two full-price pairs of selected sunglasses bought together, through October 25. Only one promo code works per order, so pick the one that saves the most.[10, 11, 15]

    1. Open the Macy's Coupons page and the offer details on the item you want.
    2. Check the minimum spend and excluded brands before you apply a code.
    3. Enter one code at checkout and confirm the discount appears.
  3. Claim a price adjustment if the price drops

    The difference, back to how you paidSome effortAnyone who ordered in the last 10 days

    If an item's advertised Macy's price falls within 10 days of your order date, Macy's refunds the difference to your original payment method. Forgot to enter a promo code? Macy's says a price adjustment may cover that too, within the same 10 days. Direct from Vendor items aren't eligible, and promotional discounts can't be combined with an adjustment.[9, 10]

    1. Keep an eye on the price for 10 days after you order.
    2. Chat with Macy's or call 1-800-289-6229 with your order number.
    3. For in-store purchases, bring your receipt to a Macy's store.
  4. Time bigger buys for Bonus Days and Macy's Money events

    Extra points, or up to $40 in Macy's MoneySome effortPlanned purchases you can wait for

    During Star Money Bonus Days, members earn bonus points on top of their usual rate, which gets them to each $10 reward sooner — Bronze members must be signed in on macys.com to get them. At select Macy's Money events, Macy's help page lists $10 back for spending $50–$99.99, rising to $40 for $200 or more, per transaction, to spend during the redemption dates on the card. Furniture, mattresses, rugs, tech and gift cards are left out of both.[6, 12]

  5. Open a Macy's Card only if you'll use the perks

    30% off online on approval day, up to $100High effortRegular Macy's shoppers happy to use a store card

    Macy's standard new-account discount is 30% off macys.com purchases (20% in stores) on the day you're approved, capped at $100 in total savings; it needs credit approval on the spot, and Macy's sometimes offers a different promotional discount instead. Cardholders move to Silver, Gold or Platinum based on yearly card spending and earn 2, 3 or 5 points per $1 when they pay with the card; Gold and Platinum get free standard shipping with no minimum. Paying through a digital wallet other than Macy's Pay earns no cardholder points.[4, 7, 8]

6 rules · macys.com, United States

The rules that decide what you pay

What Macy's says about shipping, returns, holiday returns, final sale, price adjustment and order changes — the details that turn a good deal into a bad one, or the other way round.

Shipping

Free standard shipping from $39 for Star Rewards members, $49 for other shoppers.

Below the threshold, standard delivery costs $10.95; orders usually ship within 1–2 business days and arrive 3–6 business days later. Silver cardholders get free shipping from $25 and Gold and Platinum with no minimum when paying with the Macy's Card. Alaska, Hawaii, military addresses and US territories pay a $10 surcharge, and free shipping doesn't cover furniture, mattresses or rugs.[3, 8]

Returns

30 days for most items, free in store and free by mail for members.

Store purchases go back to a store; online orders can go back by mail or in store. Non-members have $9.99 plus tax taken off their refund for a mail return. Items must be unworn and unaltered with original tags, refunds go to the original payment method, and jewelry and watches are inspected first, which can take up to 14 business days.[1]

Holiday returns

Bought between Oct 5 and Dec 31, 2026? You can return it until Jan 31, 2027.

The extension covers most merchandise bought at Macy's or macys.com. Items sold by Dyson and Mac Duggal keep the normal 30-day window, and shipping and delivery fees aren't refunded.[2]

Final sale

Last Act items can't be returned, exchanged or price adjusted.

The same goes for gift cards, food, beverages, live plants, gourmet gifts and altered or personalized items. Some designer brands have tighter rules — Burberry, for example, takes returns for only 14 days and only at Macy's Herald Square.[1, 2]

Price adjustment

Ask within 10 days of the order date.

The lower price must be an advertised Macy's price, and the refund is the difference. Promotional discounts can't be combined with an adjustment, and Direct from Vendor items don't qualify. For furniture and mattresses, the 10 days run from delivery or ship date.[9]

Order changes

30 minutes to change or cancel; 15 for pickup and same-day orders.

Cancel from Order Details while the option is there; once it's gone, the order is processing. After that you can ask Customer Care to return it to sender, refuse the package, or return it after delivery. Pickup orders not collected within 7 days are cancelled and refunded automatically.[13]

Oct · Nov · Dec

When to shop at Macy's

Sale events from Macy's's own pages, each under the months it runs.

  • October

    Biggest Fall Sale

    Up to 60% off select styles across the store, with the Diamond Sale (50–75% off jewelry) — both end October 25, 2026.[14]

  • Oct–Dec

    Extended holiday returns

    Most purchases made October 5 – December 31, 2026 can be returned until January 31, 2027.[2]

5 catches in the fine print

Watch out for

Where shoppers lose the saving they thought they had.

  1. Star Money expires after 30 days

    Each $10 reward is valid for 30 days from the day it's issued, and using part of it doesn't extend that. Points also lapse if you make no qualifying purchase for 12 months in a row.[5, 7]

  2. Returns take back points — and Star Money

    Points earned on a returned item are removed; if you don't have enough left, your available Star Money is cut by 1¢ per point. Star Money spent on a returned item may come back as new Star Money, a Macy's Happy Returns card or a merchandise-only certificate.[5, 7]

  3. Free gifts have to come back with the item

    If a purchase earned a bonus or promotional gift, return it with the item or Macy's may refuse the return or deduct the gift's value. With Buy One, Get One deals, the discount is split across the items, so each refund is the discounted price.[1]

  4. Codes and price adjustments don't stack

    Only one promo code works per order, and promotional discounts can't be combined with a price adjustment. Work out which one saves more before you ask.[9, 10]

  5. Savings are measured from offering prices

    Macy's product pages say savings are based on offering prices, not actual sales. Judge a deal by the price you'd pay rather than the percentage off.[15]
