This Instacart gift card deal is mainly useful for paying for Costco or Instacart grocery delivery, but the real value depends heavily on region and checkout path. In some areas, Costco Same Day and Instacart prices are nearly identical, while California and Los Angeles examples show much higher Instacart markups and extra service or regulatory fees. The biggest caveat is that Costco Same Day redemption has been inconsistent, with reports that new cards cannot always be added even though existing credits still work. A workable option is to start from Instacart, select Costco, and use the credits there.

  • Costco members who want to pay with existing Instacart credits, because previously added balances can still be applied at checkout.

  • Shoppers in regions where Instacart prices match or beat SameDay, because the same items can cost less on Instacart than on Costco SameDay.

  • Deal hunters who can stack a discounted gift card with grocery orders, because the card can offset markup and still break even on pickup orders.

  • Shoppers ordering through the Instacart app for convenience, because the card works on Instacart even when SameDay redemption is unavailable.

  • Buyers in high-markup regions like California or Los Angeles, because Instacart can run far above SameDay pricing and erase the discount.

  • Shoppers expecting to use the card for Costco SameDay payment, because that redemption path has been removed in some accounts and locations.

  • Costco SameDay shoppers who need to add a new gift card at checkout, because the add-gift-card flow can reject new codes and only allow existing credits.

  • People who need predictable checkout limits, because the purchase flow can cap orders at one card or one transaction and cancel a second order.

Friendly Warning !!!!!! You can no longer use Instacart giftcard at Costcosameday !!!!!! It's no longer accepted as a form of payment.
Where did you get this information? You can still add an Instacart gift card In the payment section of sameday.costco when checking out. And the Instacart credits I already have on my Costco account have been applied to my order.

They'll need to update the info on their current $10 off promo (WINTERSAMEDAY26), since it specifically says:

Can I use an Instacart gift card with this promotion?
Yes. At checkout, click 'add promo code or Instacart gift card' and enter WINTERSAMEDAY2026. Close out detail box.
Click back into 'add promo code or Instacart gift card' then enter your Instacart gift card code to add the funds to your account.
To apply Instacart Gift Card funds to your order, expand the payment (Pay with) Section at checkout and select 'Use Instacart credits'.

It seems like there is also a $50 gift card for $45 if you want to buy more gift cards.

Then you try add a giftcard and see what it says . I'm just offering a friendly advise. The app interface changed from add a promo code and gift card to only add a promo code .When you try add a giftcard it will say promotion code is invalid. I was able to use my remaining balance but unable to add additional giftcards into the accounts it's been reported by several people on the popular platform starts with R.

Costco's own internal app has 10% mark up while the store inside Instacart app has 24.4% mark up .
My concern is only direct to Costco internal app since the two platform do not share credit balance.

That's not accurate. I order at Costco via Instacart app couple times a month and it's pretty much always a flat 10% markup.

Edit: I do have Instacart+, not sure if the prices would be different without it.

I had the exact same experience as you when I was trying to place an order this past Saturday. I can use the existing credits on Costco Same Day app but unable to add a new gift card. I ended up placing an order directly from Instacart app and the only difference was instacart app had an additional $4.5 service fee on an order of $160. All the product prices were same as Costco same day

Did you add your Costco membership info to Instacart app? I placed an order yesterday and the prices on Instacart Costco were same as Costco Same Day. The only difference for me was an additional service fee of $4.5 (on an order of $160) on the Instacart app which was not there on Costco Same Day. Just FYI, I have Instacart+ membership added to both Instacart and Costco Same Day

The fact you have Instacart+ is why the prices are different / lower. I've had Instacart+ since 2019 and found the differences when comparing to Sameday without entering Instacart+ info
