Safeway Fast Forward Card Review + $50 Gift Card Giveaway!!!

Are you located in Sacramento and a fan of Safeway?  Do you like to save money and earn rewards? Then if you haven't signed up for a Fast Forward card yet, your definitely missing out!  


There are many incentives and reasons to sign up for a Fast Forward card from Safeway! Check out all of them below.

  • Huge Rewards - You will receive 2X Gas Reward Points* When you use your Fast Forward card to pay for your groceries. You will receive a 20 cents per gallon reward for every $100 you spend. 
  • Safe & Secure - Signing up is totally safe and secure. You use your own computer to sign up and the website is secure and encrypted. 
  • Cardless Checkout - You don't have to worry about a card. Just simply enter your phone number and pin and wallah!
  • Sign-Up Bonus - You will receive a voucher good for 3X Gas Reward Points on a single transaction paid for using Fast Forward. 
Luckily, I was one of only a small group of selected Sacramento Bloggers that was chosen to review the Fast Forward card.  Unfortunately, I do not have a bank account of my own, but luckily a friend of mine recently signed up for one, so I tagged along with her for a Fast Forward shopping trip.

We all know how expensive gas has really become, so saving money on gas is always a huge plus. My friend told me that she saves money on gas allowing her to buy more during her Safeway grocery store trips.  That is especially valuable because she is a mama to three.  Check out was super easy, all she did was enter her phone number and pin, and guess what?  She didn't even need to use a card!  That's awesome because with three kiddos with you it's hard to fish around your purse to find a card. She was even able to withdrawl $100 cash back from her bank account, how awesome is that!

When signing up for the Fast Forward card you have the option to link your existing rewards card to it, so you can continue to get all of the benefits of your rewards card, as well. This way you receive all your savings and pay directly from your bank account. To sign up you will need a valid drivers license or State Issued-ID, your bank account information (Routing and Checking information),  and a valid email address. 

Overall the card is full of rewards and convenience and perfect for any Safeway shopper that is located in Sacramento and has a bank account that they can link the card too. You may enroll online or by calling 1-866-392-9517. I will soon be getting a bank account and can't wait to try it out for myself.  The trip to the store, definitely sold me on the card.  

WIN IT: Thanks to Safeway one of my very lucky readers is going to receive a $50 Safeway card of their very own!!!

*Disclaimer - I received a gift card in exchange for this post.  In no way did this alter my opinions expressed in this review.  All of my opinions are one hundred percent honest and true.*
