Grubhub is one of the most popular on-demand food delivery services.
The app lets you browse menus from your favorite local restaurants, order food, and pay securely.
Then you can track your order in real time as it makes its way to your front door.
The Grubhub referral program allows new customers to save on their first order.
And once you’re a member, it allows you to pay it forward — saving your friends on their first order and earning you up to $144 in Grubhub credit in the process.
In this article we’ll talk briefly about Grubhub (and its sister site Seamless), give you a referral code to save you money, and show you how to earn Grubhub credit by referring your friends to the app.
Sign Up With a Grubhub Referral
Grubhub offers new users $12 off their first Grubhub order of $15 or more when they sign up with a referral link.
If you have a friend who uses Grubhub and want to help them (while still saving on your first order), you can tell them to go to www.grubhub.com/refer, enter their email address, then email you one of their referral links.
You’ll get a $12 credit to use toward your first order of $15 or more.
And as soon as you complete your first order, the friend who referred you will also get a $12 credit.
Don’t want to bug a friend or don’t know anyone who has Grubhub?
No problem!
You can follow this referral link to get $12 off your first order.
No need to enter a discount code or anything.
Just tap that link, sign up for Grubhub, and you’re off and running.
Once you’re using Grubhub, you can pass along the savings by generating your own referral link and then emailing it or sharing it with friends.
First you need a valid Grubhub account.
Once you’ve got that, you can refer away — provided you and your friend are both 18 years of age (per the terms and conditions of the referral program).
To start earning free food, first go to Grubhub.com/refer:
There you’ll see a prompt to put in your email address.
Once you’ve entered your email, the site will prompt you to email friends or share your referral on social media.
You can enter a friend’s email address, tap on the social media icons, or simply send the personal link generated at the bottom of the page directly to friends.
To find your special link, scroll down.
It looks like this:
You can give out as many referrals as you want, but you’ll only receive up to 12 referral credits when new users sign up using your referral code.
The referral bonus matches the amount saved by new users, so you’ll get $12 in credit up to 12 times for a total of up to $144 that you can use on future Grubhub orders.
