Over the past year, VISA Checkout has been collaborating with a ton of different brands and retailers and offering FREE shipping promotions if you checkout online with VISA Checkout. Not only is it super fast to check out online, (which can be REALLY convenient with those hot “just about to sell out” type of deals), but it is also VERY secure. And with all of the credit card security breaches that have been happening, it’s a great idea to make sure you are covered.
If you haven’t already signed up for VISA Checkout, take a quick second and quickly sign up. That way, we will all be ready for the free shipping offers that pop up. Plus, it’s a really easy option for those of you who shop on mobile devices or tablets!
Just in the past few months, 1-800-Flowers, BabiesRUs/ToysRus, Newegg, Teleflora, Fandango and even Zulily have been working with VISA Checkout. So you can bet as it gets more popular, other brands will be jumping on board too!

You don’t actually need a Visa card to do Visa Checkout. I just signed up the other day with my Discover card after reading the FAQ and finding out you can use “Visa, MasterCard, American Express or Discover credit or debit cards.” This is great because I can still earn cashback through my credit card!

Good to know Debbie!!

Just curious . . . I have had a VISA checkout account for a while now, and I frequently see blog posts for various deals if one uses that, but other than seeing blog posts, is there a way to know whether it’s going to be free shipping if you use VISA checkout rather than another payment option? By that I mean is this just a service provided by them in general, or would it be advertised on each vendor’s website if it’s available, or what? I know many of those websites give you several payment options, and I’m wondering whether it’s readily apparent at that point of a purchase that if you choose VISA checkout rather than one of the other options, the shipping is free, or is this something you would have to know ahead of time by having read a blog post somewhere?

It should be an option at checkout. But I also know that the VISA Checkout website lists everyone they are currently working with. So that might help you know too!
