Warning: Lots of people have been having issues with Drop. Use Drop at your own risk.
The Offer
- Drop is offering 20,000 points (worth $20) when you spend at least $50 on boxed.com
The Fine Print
- Targeted offer, not available to all Drop users
- Can only be used once
Our Verdict
There is an AmEx offer for $25 back when you spend $75+. You can also try the following stacking opportunities:
- Promo codes:
- JUSTFORHIMshould work for another 20% off. Can only be used once
- Referral bonus is $15 off $60 as mentioned above
- Samsung Pay instant win redemption for 10 SP points that instantly emails a $10 off $50+ purchase code to you
- SEEYOUSOON gives you $4 off your order
- PEPSI gives you $15 off $79, don’t need to have pepsi products in cart for it to work
- Can also get 2x Membership Rewards points
- Acorns App also stacks for another 4% cash back
- You can get 8% cash back by going through a portal (Topcashback is current best rate). This won’t work on gift card purchases and won’t work if you use the above codes. Ibotta should work even if regular portals don’t (seems like Ibotta is 15%? but everybody will see something different)
You can read our review of Drop here, keep in mind those issues and the fact they added new terms that applied retroactively.

The app FAQ said I'm supposed to get the points within 5 business days but they've been "pending" since January 20th. I submitted a claim and the automated email response ("We Received Your Request") says it takes 5 days for the points to be "reflected" in my account, but doesn't say when I should get them. Will report back.
Immediate response:
"We were able to locate your Boxed transaction and we see that the points are currently pending, however, we will need to wait for confirmation from Boxed before they can be approved. We're hoping to have the points applied within the next 2-3 weeks."
Sounds hopeful.
How are people on drop? It sent me to a wait list.
We're happy you're here, we'll let you know when it's your turn to get early access.
Drop removes the need to carry clumsy loyalty cards, or rack up additional credit card membership fees. In fact, you probably already have what it takes to start earning rewards with Drop: a debit or credit card.
While you're here, take a peek at our blog — we wrote a quick article with some perks of being a Drop member.

Hhhmmm.... Not sure. I think most of us signed up using a referral link. My understanding was it was opened to the public now but maybe the response was too large so they'd took it back to referral only?
I used the Amex, drop and Ibotta offers together. Along with Justforhim, they all triggered. Drop required me to follow up via message for the offer, but they credited the offer.
justforhim also didnt work, message was that this promo has been fully redeemed
pepsi and seeyousoon didnt stack,, any DP's?
