25 Links & Secret Codes That Will Score You $300 In Startup Credits
A full list of those sweet signup bonuses from new startups
For the latest cohort of startups, a popular strategy for acquiring users has been to offer a sign up credit. Lyft & Uber have been the biggest success stories, and it is no doubt that their generous $25 + sign up credits played a significant role in their rapid growth.
At Whttl, we are pretty obsessed with all things related to startups that make your life cooler, easier, and just simply…better. Our product allows you to figure out which on-demand services and products have rolled out to your specific ZIP code. From there, you can use clever little filters to find the exact fit for you. (Aka, whttl down your choices.) Whenever a startup offers a sign up credit, we include a link to it with the listing. With nearly 500 different startups in our database, we’ve got a pretty darn good handle on all the incentives available.
So, we thought we’d put them in one list.
Even if the startups below haven’t rolled out to your city, it’s probably a good idea to snag the credits while you can. Even Lyft & Uber are past their peak credit time; recent cuts have lowered the sign up bonus by up to 60% from previous heights.
So get ‘em while you can!
For some of these, but not all, we get a little bonus when you sign up. Since our bonus doesn’t reduce your bonus, we chalk that one up to a win-win.
Enjoy.
