As always with Google Store deals, you have the option of joining Google One 2 TB at $9.99 for one month before purchase, to add 10% in Google Store credit to the deal after the order has shipped.
For example, if you purchase the Pixel 8 Pro 128GB at $599.40, you can also spend $9.99 to get $59.94 in Google Store Credit.
You can cancel your Google One subscription at any time.

Some report that joining Google One Premium (2TB) will give you a benefit to jump to Google Play Points Gold. YMMV - I upgraded my 100GB membership to 2TB nine days ago and no such benefit has been provided. Google Support is unable and/or unwilling to help.

Yes, Firebase is owned by Google, but it's a platform for third parties to host their own apps. Something being run on Firebase DOES not indicate it's owned by Google. If anything, it's the opposite. The first domain linked here is "withgoogle.com", not a subdomain of google.com, which is already a red flag. Then the flow required OAuth signin to some third-party Firebase app. Google would not offer discounts in this way.

For those of you looking into this to determine if it is a scam, look up the WHOIS on firebaseapp.com and play.withgoogle.com. This is Google via MarkMonitor, LLC Registrar. MarkMonitor is an industry leader in enterprise brand management and protection against counterfeiting. If you're tech/security minded, you can dive down the rabbit hole via https://mxtoolbox.com/whois.aspx and https://talosintelligen

As noted in flinchmaster's reply, I made an oversight. FirebaseApp is not owned by Google. So, I made an error in my discovery (excellent catch and call out flinchmaster). Google really should have ran the promo directly through their own sites services, even though the promo is legitimate.
Edit Update: 12/12
I submitted a formal support request to Google Support to investigate the legitimacy of the offer. After 2+ hours on chat and 30 mins on phone support and 9 different people, they confirmed this to be a Google authorized promotion and just not everyone that is eligible has received the offer yet.
