Lowe’s online rebate submission process asks for four items, a couple of which can be difficult to find for online orders:
- Sales Date
- Location #
- Invoice #
- Dept #
Here is some help:
![Lowe’s rebate submission help: Invoice # / Dept # [SOLVED] (1)](https://i0.wp.com/www.jdhodges.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/lowes-rebate-submission-help-831x524.png "Lowe’s rebate submission help: Invoice # / Dept # [SOLVED] (1)")
Help finding the rebate info
I hope this helps! 🙂
PS Please note it can take 10 days before your rebate submission is trackable in their ‘rebate status’ section of their site.

Note that “dept#” is the same as the “offer #” from the rebate pdf. i.e. the 1st line of the address to which the paper rebate application would be mailed is the dept#. I purchased a refrigerator online and had delivered to the house. The delivery people didn’t leave a cash register receipt and I didn’t know that I’d need it for the rebate application. Doh!

Absolutely correct. On the rebate form itself, it says “Mail To” and then the address for mailing in the form. Under that, it says “Submit Online” and the place for Dept # is filled in with the same number that’s in the Dept. # field in the mailing address. It’s funny that I called Lowes and she needed time to research the answer and I told her, half-joking, that I’d google it and maybe come up with the answer. Thanks for posting this.

THANK YOU – can’t beleive that a billion dollar company did not provide any help, but a simple user community did. I have an in-store receipt that is 30 inches long and I had to locate the information in 3 unique spots. Guess it’s too much for Lowe’s to get the rebate website updates with better instructions.
Biggest tip was that the DEPARTMENT NUMBER is actually the REBATE DEPT NUMBER located on the actual REBATE FORM.

Thank you so much for sharing this info. I made an online order for a range and they didn’t give me a receipt when they delivered it so I didn’t have the invoice number. After talking to Lowe’s customer service they said they’d try to find the receipt for me and let me know the invoice number but that it could take them 10 days, maybe even longer. After reading your webpage I called the Lowe’s store that delivered my order and the manager was able to give me the invoice number right away. I never would have though to try that if it hadn’t been for you.
Customer service also told me that the “sale dates” was the date my range was delivered not the date I made my order online which I didn’t think could be right. I’m glad to see that your page says it is the date the online order was made. If it had been the date of delivery, my order wouldn’t qualify for the rebate anymore and I’d be pretty annoyed since they charged my credit card the same day I ordered!
Thank so much.

Thanks to this post and the comment from J.D. on 10/23/2017, I was able to deduce how to find the dept #. It was not listed on my receipt nor was it listed on the very small sticker rebate offer attached to the batteries I purchased.
I ended up finding the dept # by searching through the current rebate offers at Lowes rebate site. Once I found the rebate offer, bingo! the dept # was printed in the pdf.
Thank you J.D.!

This information is very helpful, and I had a related problem that might help others.
The online rebate form at https://www.lowes.com/l/rebate-center.html did not work for me when using the latest Firefox web browser, but it did work using the Google Chrome browser. Specifically, I had a problem where the ‘invalid department’ pop up was activated in Firefox but not Chrome when using the same department number.
This problem may be specific to me, but in case others need to try alternative browsers too…

Thanks so much JD! One would think the dept.# would be ON the receipt, first of all, if this is what they REQUIRE for online rebates. Not EVERYBODY prints it out and uses snail mail. (Sorry USPS, but lets face it)
Anyway, I have already been through this frustrating procedure once before, but didn’t remember how I resolved it, (as someone mentioned the store employees didn’t even KNOW their depts.) Luckily, i googled “lowes department numbers” and came up with your site. I took the time to post this because it saved me much more time then posting, and fugghetttaboutit the tons of frustration!

Good question! I assume it may be to reduce the number of people that actually get a refund. Thereby saving Lowe’s (or the manufacturers) money.

THANK YOU so very much for all your time and effort in helping so many of us who also are having trouble finding such a simple piece of information! I received an email stating: “The receipt did not indicate a qualifying purchase.” which required the Dept. # as well. I found the number when I went to the REBATE SUBMISSION site where you can either submit a rebate, check on a rebate, or check for current rebates. When I checked on this rebate, THAT is where I found the DEPT. #! Wow. Way too much work and frustration, Lowe’s, for such a simple piece of information! Nicely done, J. D. HODGES! =) PS – We went to our local Lowe’s recently to ask for their help at Customer Service. Guess what? CS does not have anything to do with REBATES nor did she offer any assistance. Not much CUSTOMER SERVICE. Thanks, again, Sir! =)
