How To Get The Chewy First Responder Discount

We couldn’t find a first responder discount for Chewy, and ID.me doesn’t list one, but you can still get money back on an order with cash back. The cleanest route is a Chewy e-gift card bought through Fluz.

How To Get The Chewy First Responder Discount

  1. Open Fluz’s Chewy page with the button below and sign in, or join if you’re new.
  2. Buy a Chewy e-gift card there. Fluz sells amounts from $20 to $500, and the cards are redeemable online only.
  3. Put the gift card toward your order at chewy.com when you check out.
  4. Check the cash back line on Fluz’s page on the day you buy, since the rate changes.
  5. Look at your total before you place your order.

Chewy offers free shipping on orders over $49, according to both Fluz and Rakuten. If your cart is close, adding a bag of food you were going to need anyway can cover the shipping.

If You’d Rather Skip The Gift Card

Rakuten, TopCashback, Active Junky, Hoopla Doopla and MaxRebates all carry Chewy, so if you already use one, you can click through from there and just shop at Chewy. The catch is in the exclusions, which differ by site:

  • Rakuten doesn’t pay cash back on pet prescriptions, flea and tick products or gift cards.
  • TopCashback excludes gift cards and Rx products, and doesn’t pay on purchases made through the mobile app.
  • Active Junky doesn’t pay on existing Autoship orders, and using a coupon code it doesn’t list voids the cash back.

Pick one route per order. Rakuten and TopCashback both exclude gift cards, so a Chewy gift card bought after clicking through one of them won’t earn cash back there.

Coupons, Autoship And Sale Items

Active Junky lists 35% off a first Autoship order, which is a Chewy promotion open to anyone, not a first responder offer. Chewy doesn’t spell out here whether a code stacks with a gift card or what an Autoship discount covers, so read the terms printed on any promotion before you rely on it, and check your total at checkout.

Q&A

Q: Does Chewy have a first responder discount?
A: We couldn’t find one, and ID.me doesn’t list one.

Q: Which cash back route works best?
A: Fluz sells Chewy e-gift cards with cash back, so it’s our first pick. Rakuten, TopCashback, Active Junky, Hoopla Doopla and MaxRebates also carry Chewy.

Q: Can I use a Fluz card on the Chewy app?
A: Fluz says the cards are redeemable online only and doesn’t mention the app, so check before you rely on it.

Q: Does cash back apply to prescriptions?
A: Rakuten and TopCashback both exclude pet prescriptions or Rx products.

Q: Can I use two cash back routes on the same order?
A: Pick one. Rakuten and TopCashback both exclude gift cards, so clicking through either and paying with a gift card earns nothing from them.

Q: Is shipping free?
A: Chewy offers free shipping on orders over $49, according to both Fluz and Rakuten.

Q: Does the 35% off a first Autoship order apply to me?
A: Active Junky lists it as a Chewy promotion, and nothing ties it to first responders. Read the terms on Chewy’s offer before you set up a plan.

Q: What about Petco?
A: Our Petco cash back page covers that store.
