The Target Red Card comes with perks shoppers love. Here's what you actually get, what's excluded, and roughly how much it could save you each year.
These are the headline Target Red Card benefits Target advertises. Details can vary by card type and change over time.

General comparison only. Rates, fees, eligibility, and features are set by Target's card program. Check Target's official terms for current details.
The discount applies to most eligible purchases, not all of them. Target publishes a list of exclusions that can change, so it's worth a look before a big purchase.
Benefits like free shipping and extended returns also apply only to eligible items, and availability can vary. When in doubt, Target's current program terms are the final word.
