Synergy Word has been promoting restaurants in Costco since 2007. Synergy has made it possible for single location restaurants or small chains to be promoted in Costco. Costco members purchase $50.00 Gift Cards and can use them at any participating restaurants within our network. If a cardholder spends $30.00 in one restaurant, they can still spend $20.00 at another restaurant.
Synergy is currently promoting the Synergy Restaurant Gift Card in 13 markets: Arizona, Colorado Springs, Denver, Fresno, Las Vegas, New Mexico, San Antonio, San Diego, San Jose, Sacramento, Santa Rosa, Temecula, and Tucson. We will be launching Seattle, Orange County, and Los Angeles areas in the 1st quarter of 2024.

Accepting the Synergy Restaurant Gift Card
In order to participate in the Synergy Restaurant Gift Card program with Costco, Synergy needs a 35% Marketing Fee. If a Costco member spends $50.00, the restaurant is reimbursed $32.50. There may be a set-up fee and/or a terminal fee and no monthly fees. This is strictly a "Pay For Performance" model.
It is important to note that the marketing fee is NOT on the entire bill amount. It is taken only on the value of the Gift Card. For example: If a customer spends $100.00 and only uses one $50.00 Gift, you would receive $32.50 ($50.00-35%) from the Gift Card and collect the remaining $50.00 in cash or credit card, therefore your Total Effective Discount is 17.5%.
