Does CVS Accept CareCredit?

CVS does not take CareCredit for prescriptions or any other purchases made in stores or online. CareCredit credit cards are usable at any provider that is contracted with CareCredit to pay for medical procedures, prescriptions, or other health and wellness needs. CVS is not contracted with CareCredit, a corporate customer service representative said.

We performed a search through CareCredit’s provider locator tool, but no CVS pharmacies were listed. We also called CareCredit customer service, where a CareCredit representative confirmed that since CVS does not contract with CareCredit, the credit cards are not accepted at CVS pharmacies or in the retail portion of CVS stores.
