Costco membership has no birthday reward of any kind. Not on the general membership page, and not on the more detailed Executive Member benefits page either.
What Costco Is
Costco is a membership-based warehouse club chain, selling groceries and general merchandise in bulk, with a paid membership required to shop at any location.
What Was Checked
Costco’s Join page and its Executive Member Benefits page (over 15,500 characters) were both read directly. The Executive page details the 2% annual reward, auto-buying program, travel benefits and a monthly credit on certain purchases. Zero mentions of “birthday” appear on either page.
What Comes Up Instead When You Search For This
Searches for “Costco birthday” mostly surface Costco’s own birthday gift cards, a retail product meant for gifting to someone else, not a membership perk tied to your own birthday. That’s worth naming directly, since it’s an easy thing to mistake for a loyalty benefit if you don’t check the actual membership terms.
What That Means For You
Costco membership still delivers real, substantial value through bulk pricing, gas savings, and (for Executive members) the 2% annual reward. There’s simply nothing added specifically for your birthday.
No Cashback Route
Fluz’s only listing for Costco is its generic 1.5% virtual-card rate, which doesn’t count as a real route under this site’s standard. The card still works everywhere, including here: Fluz
Eligibility and Cost
Costco membership requires an annual paid fee, with Executive membership at a higher tier for the 2% reward. Neither tier includes anything birthday-specific.
Q&A

A: No, checked on both the general membership page and the detailed Executive Member Benefits page.
Q: What’s the “Costco birthday” thing I keep seeing online?
A: Almost certainly Costco’s own birthday gift cards, a product for gifting to others, not a membership perk.
Q: What does the Executive tier actually get you?

Q: Is there a cashback route instead?
