How does the HelloFriends program work?

Our HelloFriends program offers you the chance to share free HelloFresh boxes with your friends and family and earn credit in return. They’ll receive a week of free meals and you’ll receive a credit off your next box when they sign up. It's a win-win.

To check whether you are eligible to send boxes you just need to log in to your account and you will see a small gift box with a number on it next to your name at the top right. If you’re using the HelloFresh app, simply choose the ‘HelloFriends’ button at the bottom of the screen. From here, select ‘Share a free box’, enter your friend's email address and they'll receive instructions on how to redeem their freebie.

How do I redeem my HelloFriends credit? Your HelloFriends credit will be applied to your account when your friend signs up to HelloFresh and redeems their free box voucher. Once your friend redeems their free box and places an order, you will receive an email notifying you that your credit is ready to redeem. Simply click the ‘Use Credit’ button and your credit will be activated and automatically apply to your next delivery. If you’re having trouble finding this email, please check your inbox and spam folder.

What do pending HelloFriends credit mean? Under the ‘pending’ balance in the HelloFriends section of your HelloFresh account, you will see a credit for each friend you have sent an email to with the free box promotion.

Please note, the ‘received’ balance will reflect the total credit you’ve received from every referral, not your remaining balance.

Why can I see multiple charges from HelloFresh?

An additional charge means you may have selected one of our Meal Upgrades or Extras to your delivery this week! Meal upgrades and Extras are charged to your account separately from your Meal Box each week.

To see a breakdown of your charges, head to 'Account Settings' then 'Order History' in your online account.

Why was my discounted box cancelled?

We have a limit of one promotional offer per household on your first box, so be sure to read the Terms & Conditions of the voucher you are attempting to claim. If your discount code is only valid for first-time customers and you have enjoyed a HelloFresh box before sadly you won’t be able to use this voucher.

If you already have an existing account with HelloFresh, we may need to cancel your order so you can reactivate your previous account. We’ll let you know via email or SMS if this has happened.

How do I change my box size?

  1. Log in to your HelloFresh account.
  2. Click on your name in the top right-hand corner, then click on 'Account Settings'.
  3. Click on 'Plan Settings' on the left hand side. Here, you can change the box size by using the drop-down box under 'Number of people'.
