Ulta Rewards program

Makeup lovers know that shopping for their favorite skincare, cosmetic, and hair products can get pricey. Ulta rewards loyal customers with a membership program so they can stock up without breaking the bank. The more you spend as an Ultamate Rewards member, the more you save and the more free goodies you get. Overall, there are a few different ways you can save with Ulta Rewards and we’ve laid them out for you.

What Is Ultamate Rewards?

First thing’s first: Ultamate Rewards is Ulta’s loyalty program. You can sign up for free to start earning rewards points. Every dollar you spend becomes a point you earn; earn enough points and you’ll get dollar-off discounts. There are three distinct levels of membership based on how much you spend in a calendar year: Member, Platinum, and Diamond. Each level offers unique (and increasingly better) perks. Here’s how to reach each level:

  • Member: The basic Ulta Rewards Member tier is free and offers 1 point per $1 spent.
  • Platinum: The Ulta Rewards Platinum tier is achieved once you spend $500 in one calendar year and offers 1.25 points per $1 spent and access to exclusive Ulta deals, gifts, and early access. You’ll also get a $10 off coupon for your birthday.
  • Diamond: The highest Ulta Rewards Diamond tier is achieved once you spend $1,200 in one calendar year and offers 1.5 points per $1 spent and access to exclusive Ulta deals, gifts, and early access. You’ll also get a $10 off coupon for your birthday, a special Diamond Gift, $25 Services Rewards, and free shipping on all orders of $25 or more.

Each tier also comes with 2x points for purchases made during your birthday month and an Ulta birthday gift.
