At Home and Synchrony Expand Rewards Program

Simplified program makes it easier to make every dollar count

DALLAS & STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--At Home, The Home Décor Superstore, and Synchrony (NYSE: SYF), a leading consumer financing company, announced today an expanded At Home Rewards Program for the home décor retailer. The program enhancements allow customers to earn 3% back in rewards on all purchases made outside At Home stores. Cardholders will continue to earn 5% back in At Home Rewards on all purchases they make in At Home stores or via athome.com.

“This is a huge win for At Home cardholders,” said Ashley Sheetz, Chief Revenue and Customer Officer. “Whether our customers are planning to make purchases during the upcoming Holiday season or looking to outfit their home for winter, this simplified program makes every dollar count when purchasing items for their homes and takes the guesswork out of rewards.”

While some credit cards offer 1% on groceries, 2% on fuel and 3% on travel, Synchrony and At Home take the uncertainty out of making purchases by offering 3% back in rewards certificates on all purchases made outside At Home.

At Home is also streamlining the card application process to create a better, more efficient experience for customers. By launching QR codes in-store, it will simplify how customers can apply and understand their special financing option. Synchrony’s prequalification process allows customers to scan the code using their mobile device without it affecting their credit score. Customers fill out the credit applications online, either before going to the store or in-store and know how much credit they can access the same day. Using QR codes and prequalification provides a secure, private and enjoyable customer experience when applying for credit inside or outside of an At Home store.

“These new financing options make it easier for At Home customers to purchase the products they want and need for their homes and get rewarded for it, too” said Tony Foster, Senior Vice President, Home, Synchrony. “Our research shows customers don’t want to think about which items will earn the most rewards. By offering 3% back in rewards across all purchases made outside At Home, customers get the rewards they want without any confusion.”
