Target’s DoorDash gift card deal adds a $20 bonus

Target is dangling a one-day bonus for DoorDash fans: buy $100 in DoorDash gift cards on July 22 and get a $20 Target gift card, according to the retailer’s promotion.

The offer is scheduled to run only through 11:59 p.m. PT on July 22. The deal applies when shoppers buy $100 worth of DoorDash gift cards at Target, according to the promotion details.

The $100 does not have to come from a single card. Mashable reports that shoppers can qualify with one $100 DoorDash gift card, two $50 cards, four $25 cards, or another combination, as long as the DoorDash gift card total reaches $100.

How the Target deal works

Once at least $100 in DoorDash gift cards is added to a Target cart, the promotion is applied automatically at checkout, according to Target’s checkout information cited by Mashable.

Target says the bonus $20 Target gift card will be transferred to the shopper’s Target account after the items ship.

• Buy $100 in DoorDash gift cards at Target on July 22.
• Use any gift card combination that totals $100.
• The $20 Target gift card promotion applies automatically at checkout.
• The offer ends at 11:59 p.m. PT on July 22.
• Target says the bonus gift card arrives in the customer’s Target account after shipping.

The deal effectively gives shoppers a Target credit to use later while paying face value for DoorDash credit. The DoorDash gift cards are listed at $100 at Target in the promotion highlighted by Mashable, with the $20 Target gift card added as the bonus.

Who it may suit

Mashable notes that DoorDash gift cards can work as back-to-school gifts for college students, gifts for new moms, or general gift options. They can also be kept for later use.

The clock is the catch. Target’s July 22 promotion is a same-day offer, with the listed cutoff at 11:59 p.m. PT. Shoppers who want the bonus need the qualifying DoorDash gift card total in the cart and the order completed before the promotion ends.
