Champs Sports gives a birthday gift through FLX Rewards, the free program it shares with Foot Locker: $5 in FLX Cash at Tier X1 and $10 at Tier X2 or X3. The gift comes through your FLX account, not through a code from Champs’ email list.
What Champs Sports Is
Champs Sports is an American sports retail store, operating as a subsidiary of Foot Locker, which itself is a subsidiary of Dick’s Sporting Goods. Champs, Foot Locker and Kids Foot Locker share one rewards program, FLX Rewards.
How To Get The Champs Sports Birthday Deal
Join FLX Rewards on Champs Sports’ FLX page, where joining is free, and put your birth month on your profile so the birthday reward finds you. You’ll want to be opted into emails as well, since that’s how Champs tells you the gift is ready.
What You Get And When
The size of the gift follows your tier: Tier X1 members get $5, and Tier X2 and X3 members get $10 as a birthday reward. The tiers are set by spending. X1 is $0 to $249, X2 is $250 to $499, and X3 is $500 or more. The FLX Rewards Program Year runs from February 1 to January 31.
If you’re opted into emails, Champs emails you a month before your birth month to say the gift is in your FLX Rewards Dashboard. You can claim it a full month before your birth month and during your entire birth month. Once you claim it, your birthday reward expires 30 days later.
Signing Up Late
Members who sign up during their birth month can only claim their reward for that month. You still get a claiming window, but a shorter one, and you might miss the email that would have told you about it. Joining a month or more ahead is the easier way to do this.
Using The Reward
Birthday rewards sit in a virtual wallet in your FLX Rewards Dashboard. Online, you apply the reward at checkout. In a store, let the team member know you have a reward in your wallet or show the barcode on the reward at checkout. You can also ask a team member to verify your account before they apply an FLX Cash reward.
A Separate Welcome Offer
Champs also offers 20% off $49 or more for opting in to marketing emails and texts. That offer isn’t tied to your birthday, and it’s separate from the FLX Cash gift.
Eligibility and Cost
The FLX Rewards Program is open to customers who have a valid email address and mobile number, live in the US and are at least 13 years old to join. Champs describes FLX Rewards as its free rewards program.
