Update 2/23/23: Readers let me know that you can add your Freedom cards to extend the Instacart+ free membership. I added my Sapphire Reserve for a free year, and now was able to add my two Freedom cards to get an extra 3 months of free membership from each. You need to add the cards at this link. (Adding your Freedom cards will also allow you to take advantage of the Freedom $10 quarterly statement credit as well.)
Update 8/1/22: There’s now a monthly or quarterly statement credit for Chase cardholders as well. Full details in this post.
The Offer
Direct Link to offer | Terms
- Chase credit cardholders can receive free Instacart+ membership for 3, 6, or 12 months.
- Sapphire Reserve gets 12 months
- Sapphire Preferred gets 6 months
- Freedom and Slate cards get 3 months
Instacart+ gives the following benefits:
- $0 delivery fees on orders of $35 or more (typically starting at $3.99 for non-Instacart+)
- Reduced service fees
The Fine Print
- Instacart charges your card once your account converts to a paid plan at the end of your free membership. You’ll receive a welcome email after signing up which will tell you your next membership renewal date. Then you’ll receive an email notice 30 days before renewal.
- This offer begins June 15, 2022, and must be redeemed by July 31, 2024.
Our Verdict
They ran a similar promo last year on most Chase cards to get a free year of Instacart, and some people even got it free through June. Just be sure to cancel before getting charged if you don’t want the paid subscription; you can cancel right away by going to Manage plan > Turn off auto-renew. Separately, keep in mind that Instacart prices are often higher than in store.
