Our Verdict
Let us know if you see any others. I believe the Blue Apron offer is only found on business cards while the others are found on all cards.
Some of these have sweet first-time user bonuses as well. For example, Swagbucks and Ibotta offer $50+ from time to time for new Blue Apron sign users. We’ve seen similar deals on Swagbucks for Home Chef. These make for terrific deals to try out the service; let us know if you see any such offers. Of course regular users of these services save nicely with these offers as well.

William Charles Chuck Ibotta has a $50 rebate when signing up for Freshly, today only. There is supposedly a coupon for $10 off your first two orders. Since the AMEX offer requires a single purchase of $55 to get the $15 off, you’d need to somehow remove the $10 coupon and order the 6 meals for $59.99 package to use the offer. Shipping is free so that won’t get you over $55.
They do not seem to have any vegetarian meals so I’m not signing up. Also, Freshly is individual prepared meals, so not like the other meal prep services such as Hello Fresh.
New FreshDirect coupon – FDJAN20, can be used twice per account for new users.
I got Blue Apron, Freshly and Daily Harvest on my Skymiles gold. They may have been on other cards, but I added them to that one before I thought to check, since I use it most often.
I previously got cash back for Home Chef when they did the generic meal delivery deal, so no surprise that I didn’t get one. Still disappointing since I’m continuing to buy their boxes.
There is another good offer for Lowe’s today – Get 10% back, up to $100
Does anyone know how these services are categorized (ie: as Groceries or as Food/Restaurant/Etc) for Amex?
Hellofresh and home chef categorize as groceries.
Have Blue Apron offer on 4/5 Amex personal accounts.
Is there a Freshly offer via Swagbacks recently?
Blue Apron offer is on my personal BCE
Too bad there isn’t one for EveryPlate to stack with the TMobile discount.
Junk offers. Do better Amex.
I had blue apron on a personal card
And also something new called Freshly.
These meal delivery businesses are sprouting up like weeds.
Somebody must be using them.
But not us.
Not to mention the ecological waste of all that packaging. Ugh.
atexit8, I’m one of the lame people who uses meal delivery boxes. I don’t cook often or well and am terribly unconfident, so I decided to try it to see if being handheld through the process would help.
It has! I’m successfully making things I would have been afraid to try before, and have tentatively started cooking some things on my own (mixed results so far).
I’m not going to argue that it’s cost-effective or that the wasteful packing isn’t appalling. I won’t do this forever. But for right now, it’s useful.
