The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Comments about Chariot Carriers Cycling CTS Bike Trailer Kit:

Our Chariot is the coolest piece of gear my wife and I have ever purchased, and living in Tahoe we buy lots of outdoor stuff. Assembly of the chasis is a snap...just take it out of the box, unfold it, pop on the wheels and it's good to go. Adding the hitch to your bike only takes two minutes...you don't even need to remove the rear wheel, just swap out the axle and tighten the quick release. As far as the bike hitch arm is concerned, it attaches to the chasis with a quick release button and stores well on the side if you swap out for different kit...you can't collapse the chasis with it in the stored position, though, so we ususally just leave it in place and hang it from the ceiling of our garage folded up. The ball and socket hitch coupling facilitates sharp turns and allows you to lay your bike down without tweaking the chasis if you stop at a destination without bike racks. You definitely notice that your pulling something behind your bike, but the trailer tracks really well and doesn't yard you around. And the suspension keeps things comfortable on pavement or mildly bumpy off road trails. Our 2 year old daughter loves "going for a bike trailer", so we give it high marks all the way around.

Comments about Chariot Carriers Cycling CTS Bike Trailer Kit:

I love this system. It is a ball and socket joint so it is super easy to set up and the turning radius on the bike is very good. I leave the mounting bracket on my bike all the time because it is so low profile. I've used the Burley system and like this much more.

Comments about Chariot Carriers Cycling CTS Bike Trailer Kit:

I love the trailer feature. When I tried it out I couldn't believe how easy it was to pull. The most amazing thing to me was that it didn't affect my turning radius. I could turn as tight as I wanted and the trailer didn't affect it at all. Such a different story from others that I have tried. And it is very intuitive to connect. Fast and easy, with little to no chance to make a mistake. My kids and I both love it!
