The current Membership is being replaced with two new options, paid Barnes & Noble Premium Membership and free B&N Rewards.

Premium Membership, at an annual fee of $39.99 a year, will provide a 10% Everyday Membership Discount on eligible purchases made at Barnes & Noble stores AND online at BN.com, free standard shipping, free drink size upgrades at B&N Cafés, a free tote bag each Membership year, exclusive offers and more. Premium Membership also includes all the benefits of B&N Rewards.

With B&N Rewards, which is included with Premium Membership or is available separately for free, you will earn 1 stamp for every $10 spent on eligible items in a single transaction in stores or online. Every 10 stamps earned are converted to a $5 reward that can be used in stores or online.

You can upgrade to Premium Membership or add B&N Rewards to your current Membership at any time by clicking the Join Premium or Join Rewards button above or by asking a bookseller at your local Barnes & Noble store.

Current members who have not yet selected Premium Membership or B&N Rewards will continue to receive the benefits of your existing Membership for the remainder of your current term. If you opt not to join Premium Membership or B&N Rewards before your current term expires, your Member benefits will end at the conclusion of your term and your Membership can no longer be renewed.

For every $10 spent in a single transaction on eligible items, 1 stamp is earned and issued to your Premium Membership or B&N Rewards account.

Once 10 stamps have been earned, they are converted to a $5 reward that is issued to your Membership account by the end of the next day.

There is no limit for earning stamps and rewards. If your purchase qualifies for stamps, those stamps will be issued and will be converted into a reward once 10 stamps have been collected.

Rewards do not expire unless you cancel your account. Stamps do not expire unless your account is inactive for 12 consecutive months, or you cancel your account.

For purchases in B&N stores, stamps are issued to your account at the time of purchase.

For purchases on BN.com, stamps are issued no later than one day after items ship. If the order is fulfilled in multiple shipments, stamps will be issued over the course of those shipments as the running total of shipped items in the order reaches each $10 threshold.

Example: In a $30 order that ships over two days, 2 stamps are issued when the $20 item ships. Another stamp is issued when the $10 item ships the next day.

Once 10 stamps have been earned, they are converted to a $5 reward that is issued to your Membership account by the end of the next day.
