There is no current 90-day free trial for a Sam’s Club membership. The former 90-day trial was discontinued years ago, and recent confirmations from Sam’s Club employees and official sources confirm this.
However, there are several ways to access Sam’s Club benefits at little or no cost:
One-day free in-store trial: New shoppers who haven’t had a membership in the past six months can shop in-store for free for one day before paying the membership fee.
15-day online guest pass: Access Sam’s Club’s website and online deals for 15 days without a membership, though curbside pickup and Scan & Go are not available.
$25 limited-time offer: As of early 2026, new members can join for $25 (50% off the regular $50 fee) through a promotional offer ending January 31, 2026.
SNAP/EBT discount: Qualifying government assistance recipients can get 60% off a Club membership or $50 off a Plus membership when joining online.
T-Mobile promotion: Switching to an eligible T-Mobile plan can earn you $25 to $150 in Sam’s Club e-gift cards, effectively offsetting membership costs.
Free complimentary card: Once you join, you can add a complimentary cardholder (free) for another household member.
Money-back guarantee: If you’re not satisfied, you can cancel your membership and get a refund (one time per year for Plus members).
These options make it possible to get significant savings or even effectively free access to Sam’s Club benefits.

I started working at a Sam’s Club Fullfilment/Distribution Center for a couple weeks now, and was wondering how to get one. I tried looking online on the website or app, but nothing.
Am I supposed to talk to my manager or go to a local Sam’s Club desk to get a membership card?
