Saks Fifth Avenue provides two options for customers: the SaksFirst Store Card and the SaksFirst Mastercard. They’re both issued by Capital One.
These cards are designed for fairly frequent Saks shoppers, both Saks Fifth Avenue and Saks OFF 5th outlets. They’ll reward you more depending on how much you spend, so if you’re spending thousands of dollars at Saks each year they could end up being pretty valuable. You’ll get a SaksFirst Membership with both cards.
The regular store card offers rewards and benefits only at Saks, while the Mastercard offers a wider selection of features and can be used anywhere.
Neither card has an annual fee, but the regular store card will give you a higher interest rate.
You could be using one of these cards to get discounts and benefits at Saks, but should you? Keep reading our review to find out.

Our Rating: 3 & 4 Out Of 5 Stars
We gave the SaksFirst Store Card 3 out of 5 Stars for its rewards, benefits, and costs. You’ll get some small rewards and a nice set of benefits to start out, but you need to spend quite a bit of money to raise your membership tier.
We gave the SaksFirst Mastercard 4 out of 5 Stars because it’s a bit better than the regular store option. It provides everything the store card does, along with the ability to earn points anywhere, some extra benefits, and a lower interest rate. So it’s a better option if you can get it.
Why We Like Them
- Potential for high rewards for frequent Saks shoppers
- Strong benefits at the lowest membership tier, not requiring any extra spending
- Saks discounts
- No annual fee
Why They Could Be Better
- High spending qualifications for upper benefit tiers
- Benefits may not always equal the cost of raising your member status
- Interest rates are very high, but that’s to be expected for most store cards
Where Can I Use My Saks Credit Card?
The SaksFirst Store Card can only be used at Saks locations, which includes Saks Fifth Avenue, Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5th, saks.com, and saksoff5th.com.
The SaksFirst Mastercard can be used anywhere Mastercard is accepted, which is pretty much everywhere.
Can I Upgrade my SaksFirst Store Card to A Mastercard?
Yes. To upgrade your store card to the Mastercard version, just click this link and apply or visit a Saks store.
Insider Advice: Getting the Most Out of Your Card
- Keep an eye out for advance access: You’ll get advanced knowledge of merchandise before non-members, giving you a shot at getting there first.
- Pounce on sales: You’ll be notified of designer sales before they happen, so you’ll have extra time to capitalize on savings.
- Spend enough to reach the higher tiers: Some useful benefits like a concierge and valet parking are unlocked at the higher membership tiers.
- Store your furs: Saks offers the unique perk (at the Platinum tier) of caring for your fur. If you have an extra fur you need stored, Saks will take it off your hands and hold it.
- Utilize the fashion consultant: Saks offers in-store fashion consultants for cardholders, whose job is to make sure you’ll walk out looking your best.
- Take advantage of the double/triple reward days: Depending on your membership tier, these days could really have you reaping in the rewards.
- Don’t dawdle with your reward gift cards: Every 2,500 points will get you a $25 gift card, which will expire on 12/31 of the year it was issued, unless otherwise noted on the card.
The Rewards
The SaksFirst Store Card and Mastercard give you more points per dollar for higher membership tiers. The more you spend each year, the higher your tier will be. You’ll begin earning 2X SaksFirst points per dollar, leading up to 6X points per dollar (after spending $10,000 or more).
Points are worth 1 cent each; every time you earn 2,500 points, you’ll get a $25 Saks gift card.
Initial Offer
When you get your card, you’ll be able to get one of the following:
- 10% off your first day purchases at Saks (SaksFirst Store card only)
- $25 Saks Welcome Gift Card when you make your first purchase outside Saks (SaksFirst Mastercard only)
SaksFirst Membership Rewards
These rewards apply to both the SaksFirst Store Card and the SaksFirst Mastercard.
| Spending Rewards |
|---|
|
|
The more you spend each year, the more points you’ll earn. The following tiers also include additional benefits to reward you for spending more (explained in the next section).
| Spend | Tier | Points Per Dollar |
| Up to $5,000 | Premier | 2 |
| Up to $10,000 | Elite | 4 |
| Up to $25,000 | Platinum | 6 |
| More than $25,000 | Diamond | 6 |
So these cards will be much more rewarding if you’re a big spender at Saks, especially if you’re making use of the double and triple point days – potentially earning 18 points per dollar if you’re in the highest tiers.
Once you reach the $10,000 Elite tier, the card gets twice as rewarding at 4 points per dollar. But take note that you need to spend 1.5 times as much to reach the next Platinum tier at $25,000, which only provides 6 points per dollar. And after that there isn’t a bump in rewards for spending more.
Whenever you reach 2,500 points, you’ll be given a $25 Saks gift card.
SaksFirst Mastercard Rewards
In addition to the rewards above, the Mastercard version also provides:

Neither of these cards has an annual fee, but there are a few differences to be aware of.
As you can see, you’ll end up with a higher interest rate with the regular store card (but remember you can avoid interest by paying your balance off each billing period).
You’ll be able to use the Mastercard for balance transfers and cash advances, while you can’t with the store card. But it’s not designed for those kinds of purposes, so you should stick to using it as a way to earn rewards at Saks and elsewhere.
The Bottom Line
The SaksFirst Store Card and the SaksFirst Mastercard are meant for Saks customers who visit pretty frequently. If you’re already spending a lot of money there, you might as well get some rewards and benefits to go with it.
So check your spending habits – how often do you shop at Saks, and how much do you spend there? Are the rewards and benefits above very attractive to you?
If so, these cards should help you get more bang for your buck. They have no annual fees, so they can be completely free to use as long as you pay them off in full every billing period. That would mean you get all of the points and features without having to pay a cent.
And if you’re spending more than $5,000 or $10,000 at Saks each year, you have the potential to gain a huge amount of rewards on those double and triple point days. Those points would help put a big dent in your bill.
How to Apply for the SaksFirst Store Card/Mastercard
To apply for the regular store card, simply click the Apply Now button on the card banners sprinkled throughout the review. They’ll take you to the Saks website where you can follow links to apply.
To apply for the Mastercard, you’ll have to visit a Saks store in person, or request an upgrade once you’ve been approved for the store-only version.
For each card, the issuer (Capital One) will judge your creditworthiness, based on your financial standing and other factors, and you should hear back pretty quickly. After you’re approved, your card will be issued and you’ll be ready to start shopping with Saks.
What Credit Scores Do You Need for the Saks Credit Cards?
We recommend you have a credit rating of fair before applying for either card. That means you should at least be in the FICO range of 580–669 to have a good shot at being approved.
Keep in mind that credit approval decisions rely on more than just credit scores; they include income and other factors. But obviously, the higher your scores, the easier it will be for you to get either card.

Alternatives to the SaksFirst Store Card and SaksFirst Mastercard
Are you not a frequent Saks shopper? Here’s a few more cards that might fit your spending habits better.
- Requires active Prime membership
- Cash back can be redeemed for statement credits or at Amazon.com checkout
- Earn 5% back at Amazon.com and Whole Foods Market
- Earn 2% back at gas stations, restaurants, and drugstores
- Earn 1% back on all other purchases
- $100 Amazon.com Gift Card instantly upon approval
- $0 annual fee
The Amazon Prime Rewards Visa Signature Card (Review) provides strong rewards and access to a wide range of products. While it doesn’t have an annual fee, the Prime version of the card requires an Amazon Prime membership. The Amazon Rewards Visa Signature Card (Review) is the non-Prime version, and has diminished rewards.
With this card you’ll earn cash back rather than points, and there are no membership tiers based on how much you spend (unless you count the Prime membership, anyway). So it provides a more straightforward rewards system without spending thresholds.
Amazon boasts a wide variety of products, more diverse than Saks, but still including clothing and accessories. You’ll earn 5% cash back on all of those purchases, which is more than you would earn at the lower membership tiers with the SaksFirst credit cards. You’ll also earn 5% at Whole Foods, adding even more versatility. With the non-Prime version that drops down to 3%, which is still decently rewarding.
So if you’re looking for a less complicated rewards program that still includes plenty of shopping options and high rewards, this is definitely one to consider.

- If you transfer a balance, interest will be charged on your purchases unless you pay your entire balance (including balance transfers) by the due date each month.

The Citi® Double Cash Card – 18 month BT offer (Review) is currently one of the best flat-rate cash back cards available. You’ll get 2% on every purchase, no matter where you choose to use it.
With the basic Saks store card, you’ll only earn in a few categories and won’t be able to use it anywhere else. With the Mastercard version, you’ll still earn in select categories which include gas, dining, and groceries, and you’ll only get one point everywhere else.
So rather than being restricted like that, with the Double Cash you can have the versatility of earning a good rate on every purchase, anywhere. You’ll earn 1% cash back when you make the purchase, and the other percent when you pay it off.
You won’t get any store-specific discounts, or shopping and travel protections, but you will get the added features of a concierge and access to your FICO Bankcard Score 8 based on your Equifax credit report. Helpful perks in the world of credit cards.
So if you’re unconcerned about the protections and want to earn a little extra cash without being told where you can earn it, this might be the card for you.

There are ways to get a better return on spend than the 2% you would normally get.

- Great Offer from U.S. Bank, a 2020 World’s Most Ethical Company® – Ethisphere Institute, February 2020
The U.S. Bank Cash+™ Visa Signature® Card offers a bit of flexibility when it comes to how you earn your rewards.
You’ll be able to choose two categories every three months in which you’ll earn 5% cash back, and one everyday category to earn 2% in. For our purposes here, one of the available 5% categories is department stores, providing a wide-open option if you don’t exclusively shop with Saks. So you’d be able to mold this card to fit your spending habits.
The everyday category could be gas or groceries, so you’d be able to earn more rewards on purchases you’d be making regardless.
You won’t get any store-specific discounts or perks, but you could still earn quite a bit of rewards while not being restricted to simply earning at one department store.
