Athleta Rewards is a free-to-join loyalty program under the Gap Rewards umbrella. The program allows you to earn and redeem rewards with Athelta as well as Gap's other family brands including Old Navy, Banana Republic, and Gap.
As a member, you'll be able to shop across all four brands and enjoy the benefits of them all with a single membership. No matter which brand you shop at, your membership will travel with you including your benefits and membership level.

Points can also be converted to dollars to donate to select organizations at the same rate of 100 points = $1 donation dollar.

Athleta points will expire after 12 months if you do not make a purchase in the 12 months after earning them. So be sure to make at least one purchase during the year at any Gap family of brand to keep your points from expiring.

Conclusion: Is Athleta Rewards is Worth Joining?
If you frequently shop at Athleta or other Gap brand stores, I highly recommend signing up for the Athleta Rewards program and picking up one of their co-branded credit cards. Earning 5% back at Gap brand stores can quickly add up.
Like any other store cards, just make sure to pay your balance in full each month. Store cards typically have high APRs which can eat away at the overall value of your rewards and Athleta credit cards are no exception.
