The details

Costco does NOT discount the membership fee for students. Instead, verified students who sign up pay the normal price ($65 Gold Star / $130 Executive) and receive a bonus digital Costco Shop Card. As of the 2026-07-13 check, the live a student-verification platform offer is a flat $50 digital Costco Shop Card with no Gold Star/Executive tier distinction shown (earlier research found a $20 Gold Star / $40 Executive split). This is a student-gated version of Costco's standard Shop Card new-member incentive; amounts rotate.
