Updated on Saturday March 2, 2024: For all of you looking to take advantage of the TurboTax Amazon Refund Bonus Offer from years past — where you could have earned an extra 5% to 10% bonus on top of your federal refund in the form of an Amazon gift card — we’re sad to report that it’s no longer being offered here in 2024. It was a fantastic deal because if was just like getting free money for all of us that already do a majority of our shopping on Amazon. But wait… there’s still good news!

Amazon’s TurboTax Refund Bonus Offer Switches to H&R Block.

H&R Block’s tax filing software, which is a direct competitor to TurboTax, now offers pretty much the same type of extra bonus federal refund as we once saw with TurboTax. It’s an Amazon-only exclusive promotion available on qualifying versions of H&R Block software. Here’s how it works:

1. Purchase an eligible version of H&R Block 2024 tax software (for the 2023 tax year) at amazon.com. You’ll be able to select from boxed CD and download versions of Basic, Deluxe, Premium and Premium & Business (with or without State returns included). All qualifying versions will have the “refund bonus” icon on the box image as shown below.



2. Use the program to complete your tax return. When you’re ready to e-file, you will have the option of selecting to receive part of your federal individual income tax refund in the form of an Amazon gift card. You can designate any amount between a minimum of $100 and a maximum of $5,000.
3. H&R Block will add an extra 2.75% to the total amount you designate to your Amazon gift card. For example, if you designate $500 of your federal tax refund toward the purchase of the gift card, H&R block will automatically add $13.75 to the total amount, bringing the total value of the gift card to $513.75.
4. When your federal income tax refund has been sent by the IRS, H&R Block will email you your online Amazon Gift Card redemption code (typically within 3 days). Values of over $2000 will be sent via multiple gift cards.

Just remember, you won’t qualify for this offer if: (a) you are not eligible to receive a federal tax refund this year; (b) you decide to print your completed return and not e-file; (c) you do not agree to the posted Terms and Conditions; and/or (d) you are under the age of 18. The complete and official terms and conditions for this offer can be found here.

Was my TurboTax discount properly applied?

Just like you’ll see at any other online store, when a TurboTax discount is properly applied the full price will be crossed out in red and the new price will shown. But unlike at other checkout carts, there will not be a promo code box; all discounts from TurboTax are automatically applied to your account when you follow a qualifying and valid discount link (just like the ones tased at the top of this page!).

What’s a TurboTax “service code” and should I use it?

At checkout you’ll likely notice an optional “service code” box. This is used to adjust a purchase price for a particular version and is only given out by TurboTax’s customer support specialists on an individual case-by-case basis. For example, let’s say you accidentally filed with the wrong version. Customer support may issue you a code so that you can redo your return without having to pay twice. Keep in mind, service codes are never given out by any third-parties/affiliates as discounts.

How can Mint help make taxes easier?

Similar to QuickBooks, because Mint is also owned by Intuit (the makers of TurboTax), users of Mint have it easy when it comes to tax time. Mint integrates with TurboTax to help you get organized with your tax deductions and maximize your refund. Mint will also notify you with your refund arrives and get you set up with a high-yield savings account or CD to get your money working for you. Learn more at mint.intuit.com/taxes2.

How will I know my TurboTax discount is properly applied?

Regardless which of the offers you use above, all TurboTax discounts are automatically applied to your order when you (a) follow a qualifying link and (b) login to your online TurboTax account. The same is true if you are taking advantage of a TurboTax discount through your bank or financial institution such as Fidelity, Bank of America, Citi or Vanguard. You’ll know that the offer is successfully applied once you are ready to pay for your TurboTax purchase. See below for an example.

What is a TurboTax service code?

When finalizing your tax return using any one of TurboTax’s online versions, you’ll come across a “I have a service code” message in your cart. What does this mean? Well, under certain circumstances select customers are given a code to tie back their purchase to a customer service agent, to apply a make-good discount (for example, if you were already changed previously for a version of TurboTax), or for some other reason. Very few customers are given these codes to use so if you don’t already have one then be sure to keep this space black.

Can I stack TurboTax discounts together towards a single purchase?

You’ll often find that there are several discounts offered for the same versions of TurboTax depending on where you look. For example, Fidelity may be offering $20 off Deluxe Online when purchased through your account, Chase Bank may be offering $10 off Deluxe Online when purchased through your account, you might find a $20 instant coupon on this page on Deluxe Online, maybe a $5 coupon on Reddit or Slickdeals, and so forth. Always choose the best deal because you will not be able to combine offers into a single purchase. Keep in mind that the last offer you clicked will be applied to your purchase — It’s the only one that counts.
