The Offer
- Fidelity is offering some members free Turbotax Premier. Should show under Portfolio Summary Page.
Our Verdict
Some people only see it for $20 off rather than being free, whereas others see it for free.
“You’re eligible for an exclusive TurboTax® offer!
You qualify for this year’s free TurboTax program offered to select Fidelity customers. You’ll see the link here by the end of January.
Check back soon
Link/offer available now
I got the same offer. However, clicking on the new link only takes me to a 20% off TT offer. Is anyone else seeing this? I plan to wait a few more days – hopefully, this is just a bug Fidelity will fix soon.
EDIT: I see that it’s free when I log into TT. It must have carried forward the free Fidelity offer that I had originally clicked on in Dec.
Yeah, the online version seems to be broken when you go to pay. The download version should be working for $5.
What the url is looking like?
If you qualify for the offer, it doesn’t matter, does it? Just click on the link at the bottom of your Portfolio page.
There is a way to make this work for everyone.
Do tell.
Not anymore. Thanks to hackers like you, they’ve removed the offer for everyone. Hopefully it will be back in 2024 once they’ve fixed it.
Oh, and the entire SD thread where this illegal hack was discussed has been removed
Here are the direct links to the Fidelity offers. You’ll be prompted to log into your Fidelity account, and if you aren’t targeted for a certain offer, you’ll hit a 403 error after clicking the blue button.

Be sure to try the better deal links first before the lower value ones. I found in my account, for example, that I qualified for both the 30% and 20% discounts, but after accidentally activating the 20% discount (by simply logging into my Intuit account), the 30% discounts would no longer show. 😥
Has anyone been able to actually get these to apply? My account shows -c, but then Turbotax shows full price at checkout
Guys, just use Cash App Taxes (formerly Credit Karm taxes, owned by HR Block). It’s 100% free and awesome. TT is overrated.
Warning for those who have shared discounted copies of TT with friends/relatives in the past using this deal. TurboTax is now linking activation codes to TurboTax accounts, so once you’ve activated you need to login to that same TT account to install future copies with that code. In addition, they are attaching the code to the account that you purchased with, so it seems like you need to use that TT account to install and activate TT even for the first time. Bottom line is that buying multiple licenses on the same TT account is probably not a good idea.

That’s probably the best discount there is for the online products. Even if they had that discount available for the download products it would not be as good as you can get from Amazon, Costco et al., so not a big deal.
I actually found that th 30% discounts DID show for the downloadable products (at least for me). After clicking through to the link, I clicked the “Do it yourself” link at the top > Do taxes with Desktop software and the discounted prices showed up.
cool. have been getting it for last 3 years, got it again
Lucky you.
Don’t appear to be targeted (I get 20%), but posting this for later in case it ever pops up:

No clue how my lowly Fidelity balance got me Premium for free, but I’ll take it. I only had 20% off yesterday. At first glance, it looks like Premium will be fine for a W-2, 1099, and Schedule C income.
Yes, you’ll be fine with Premium.
Are you an active trader? That will get it.
