About HelloFresh
HelloFresh SE is the world's leading meal kit company and a global integrated food solutions group. It operates a flexible, weekly subscription service that delivers fresh, pre-portioned ingredients and easy-to-follow recipes directly to customers' doorsteps.

What are the best ways to save at HelloFresh?
The primary ways to save are focused on new customer offers, professional/student discounts, and referral programs.
- Take Advantage of New Customer Introductory Offers: HelloFresh offers its most significant discounts to new subscribers. These offers frequently include a large discount on the first box (e.g., 50-55% off) and a total discount applied across a number of subsequent boxes, often along with free shipping on the first box or a free gift/item per box for a limited time.
- Use the Hero Discounts Program: Special discounts are offered to verified members of specific professions, including students (via UNiDAYS), military members (active duty or veteran), medical providers, nurses, hospital employees, teachers, and first responders. These discounts often provide substantial savings on the first box and a long-term discount on subsequent boxes.
- Utilize the Referral Program: HelloFresh's referral program allows you to save money by sharing the service. You can receive a credit or discount on your account (e.g., a $\$10$ credit) when you refer a friend who signs up and receives a discount on their first box (e.g., $\$40$ off).
- Reactivate a Past Account: If you have used HelloFresh in the past, you may be eligible for a "Welcome Back" discount upon reactivating your subscription, which can include discounts across multiple boxes.
HelloFresh Sales and Seasonal Discounts
HelloFresh offers promotions throughout the year, often centered around major holidays and sales events.
- One-Day-Only Flash Deals: The company occasionally offers limited-time, short-term flash deals and special coupon codes that can provide extra discounts, free meals, or perks on your box.
- Holiday Deals: HelloFresh participates in major sales periods such as Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, and the 4th of July, offering special promotions and discounts during these times.
- Seasonal Add-ons: The HelloFresh Market offers seasonal items, snacks, and convenience add-ons that can sometimes be part of a promotional offer or help you reach a spend threshold for an existing discount.
HelloFresh Store Services and Policies
HelloFresh operates on a flexible, weekly subscription model.
- Delivery: Meals are delivered weekly on a day you select. The ingredients are pre-portioned and packaged to stay fresh until they arrive at your door. A shipping fee usually applies to all boxes after the first box (which is often free for new customers).
- Subscription Flexibility: The service is commitment-free. Customers can skip a week, change their meal preferences, or cancel their subscription at any time through the website or mobile app.
- Cancellation/Skipping Deadline: To avoid being charged for a box, any changes, skips, or cancellations must be made by 11:59 pm PST five days prior to your next scheduled delivery date.
- Gourmet/Premium Meals: Some recipes are designated as "Gourmet" or "Craft Burger" and will incur a small surcharge per person, which is indicated during the meal selection process.
- Ingredient Issues: If an ingredient is missing or damaged, customers are advised to contact Customer Care for a resolution, which may include a credit.
HelloFresh Memberships and Credit Cards
HelloFresh does not offer its own branded membership program like Amazon Prime, as the meal kit service itself is a weekly subscription. The primary way to earn rewards is through third-party credit cards and cashback portals.
- Credit Card Rewards: Since HelloFresh payments are processed as online purchases (often classified with an MCC for Miscellaneous Food Stores), using a cashback or miles credit card that offers bonus rewards for online spending or grocery purchases is the best way to maximize returns on your subscription cost.
- Cash Back Portals: Using a third-party shopping portal like Rakuten to make your purchase can earn you a percentage of your purchase back in the form of Cash Back on your initial box purchase.
Buy Now, Pay Later
HelloFresh supports the use of popular "Buy Now, Pay Later" (BNPL) services for customers who prefer to split their weekly payment into installments.
- Third-Party Services: HelloFresh accepts third-party BNPL services such as Sezzle and Zip (formerly Quadpay). These services typically allow customers to split their purchase into four interest-free installments over six weeks.
