Participation and Usage
Q: What discounts am I eligible for as part of the Employee
Discount Benefit?

10% off your Hy-Vee purchases and 20% off dine-in orders at
any Hy-Vee-owned Wahlburgers. (Some exclusions may apply.)

applied to?
A: Yes, some restrictions apply. These restrictions include, but
are not limited to, alcohol, lottery tickets, fuel, tobacco, money
orders, money transfers, prepaid debit cards, gift cards, postage,
dry cleaning services, pharmacy transactions, DSW shoe purchases,
and Mealtime to Go orders. See the
program terms and conditions
for more details.
Q: How frequently can I use my Employee Discount
Benefit?
A: You can use your discount benefit as often as you shop at
Hy-Vee or dine in at one of our Wahlburgers locations. (To receive
the discount on dine-in orders at our Hy-Vee Wahlburgers

Q: How do I use the discount when shopping at Hy-Vee
stores?

your registered card on the Hy-Vee Aisles Online mobile app.
Q: How do I use the discount when dining at a Market Grille

Fuel Saver + Perks card registered on the Hy-Vee Aisles Online
mobile app. If the employee discount benefit is digitally
activated, your Fuel Saver + Perks card color within the app will
be red.

employee's meal or is it the entire check? What about
Wahlburgers apparel purchases?
A: The 20% discount will be applied to the entire check as long as
it contains the employee's meal and the employee shows his/her
registered digital Fuel Saver + Perks card on the Hy-Vee Aisles
Online app. For merchandise purchases at Hy-Vee-owned Wahlburgers
locations, the 20% discount will apply as long as the employee is
making the purchase and again shows his/her digital Fuel Saver +
Perks card on the Hy-Vee Aisles Online app.

A: The discount is a benefit for Hy-Vee employees and their
designated registered guest. Sharing of this discount with anyone
other than your designated registered guest is prohibited and
could result in removal from the program.
Q: If I've linked my Fuel Saver + Perks® card with
another cardholder's Fuel Saver + Perks® card, is that
cardholder automatically my guest?

discount through your hy-vee.com account.
