Instant Win Games not in Catalog

JoLo49 — Sun, 26 Apr 2026 03:48:37 GMT

Why aren't all 7 Instant Win games posted in the catalog? Only 5 are posted tonight. I can access the 7 games using the free method, but I much rather spend points to play the games rather than inputting my personal info to play the games for free. It takes too much effort to play for free, and if I happen to be lucky enough to win, I want to see the confetti!

Morning, I only found the 5. I use the redemption filter “for points” and scroll down. I only found 5 today. It takes too long to go through all. Thank you!

@JoLo49

I totally agree plus it takes to much time to do the free method, not worth a measly 50 points

i just want to know what the devil ADMIN is doing

One minute things began to work like it’s suppose to

and then down the toilet again

On 4/22 we only had 6 INSTANT WINS

4/23 it was 5

Today 4/24 it’s ONLY 4

At this rate by 4/28 it will be down to ZERO.

Pay attention ADMIN & FIX what you have intentionally broke

I found the 5 with the TJ Maxx one at the top. If you go into the terms, it shows that Texas Roadhouse and H&M have Instant Wins too (supposedly). It is no longer worth the time and effort with AARP Rewards. I remember when we could redeem for $25.00 GCs (I am that old)! LOL

the 7th one (TJ Maxx) is also there, but it doesn't have an Instant Win label so doesn't show up if you filter for that. But if you manually look for it (or know it is there and search for it), it will show up and you can play it for 50 points.

Sorry, I got it wrong. It is the H&M instant win that is missing and it doesn't show up at all.

Hi, just an fyi for cust service, today 4/26, new IWs Ulta & AMC are not showing up (using website). Did not show up in search by name either. I don’t want them anyway, just looked up in rules pg to see if I wanted whatever was missing the past 2 days (LoL)!

As of 4/26/2026, there are still only 5 Instant Win games posted in the catalog. I have lost faith that this issue will be fixed anytime soon. To play the "free" method takes more time and effort, but maybe that is AARP's intent for members to spend more time on the site to engage in activities such as playing the games.

Well it’s not down to ZERO INSTANT WINS YET, but it’s not that far off.
I did say it might be ZERO by 4/28 but it’s back down to ONLY 4 INSTANT WINS today 4/27/26.

I have a wonderful idea, pay attention ADMIN, let’s take 6 of the $5 points only gift cards & put back the 3 missing INSTANT WINS, after all you do have 20 of the lamest, and worthless gift card you could find.

Remember the recent ask by admin on the question, what kind of rewards do you like? I believe they are using that data result and lowering the instant wins, in my opinion.
