More Ways to Save Money at H&R Block

H&R Block's got this whole savings thing figured out — and honestly, they're making it pretty easy to keep more money in your pocket. Whether you're dealing with a simple W-2 situation or running a complex business, they've built smart ways to cut your costs while getting professional-grade tax prep. From genuinely free filing for most people to bundle deals that slash hundreds off premium services, here's how to work their system in your favor.

Apply Your H&R Block Discount Code, Step by Step

Getting your H&R Block savings applied is refreshingly straightforward, whether you're filing online or heading to a Block Advisors office. Here's exactly how to make sure you're not leaving money on the table.

1. Start at hrblock.com — Navigate to their online tax filing platform and select your service level (Free Online, Deluxe, Premium, or Self-Employed)
2. Enter your tax information — Work through their guided interview process, which automatically checks if you qualify for their Free Online Edition
3. Look for automatic discounts — New customer discounts often apply automatically when you access H&R Block Online through promotional links
4. Review your final cost — Before payment, double-check that any applicable discounts show up in your total
5. For in-person visits — Present any competitor receipts or mention promotional offers before completing your initial tax office interview

Pro tip: If you're a new client with a receipt from TurboTax, Jackson Hewitt, or another competitor, bring it to your appointment. H&R Block's price match guarantee can cut your costs by up to 50% (with a $99 minimum service charge).

Lock in 50% Off with H&R Block Tax Bundles

This is where H&R Block gets really generous. Their Tax Bundle offer lets you save big on comprehensive tax services, but timing is everything.

You can get 50% off either a one-return bundle (normally $499) or a two-return bundle (normally $899) that includes virtual returns, audit support, and year-round tax planning sessions. The catch? You need to schedule your free consultation between October 6-12, 2025 and actually purchase by October 31, 2025. These bundles include Peace of Mind coverage for personal returns, Business Tax Audit Support for entities, three Year-Round Tax Planning sessions, and unlimited virtual tax support. It's like getting a tax advisor on retainer for half the usual cost.

Free Filing That's Actually Free (No Hidden Fees)

Here's what sets H&R Block apart from competitors who promise "free" then hit you with surprise charges: their Free Online Edition is genuinely $0 federal, $0 state, $0 filing fees for about 52% of filers. We're talking simple tax situations — W-2 employees, students, folks with unemployment income, and people claiming Child Tax Credit or Earned Income Tax Credit.

What's Included in the Free Edition

Here's what the Free Edition covers:

• W-2 income from employment
• Interest and dividend income up to $1,500
• Unemployment income reporting
• Student loan interest deduction
• Earned Income Tax Credit eligibility
• Child Tax Credit calculations

The free service draws the line at more complex situations like itemized deductions, self-employment income, rental property income, and capital gains. If your tax life is straightforward — think standard job, maybe some savings account interest, and basic credits — you're likely covered.

$150 Off New Customer Perks

H&R Block treats first-time customers like VIPs, and the savings are real. New clients get access to assisted tax prep discounts at participating offices, plus that price match guarantee we mentioned. But here's the kicker: their DIY discount for new customers applies automatically when you access H&R Block Online through promotional links.

For business owners, the new client bookkeeping discount is particularly sweet — $150 off full-service bookkeeping with a required 12-month engagement. The offer runs through December 31, 2025, and when you combine it with their first three months free promotion, you're looking at serious savings on year-round financial management.

Bookkeeping Services with Three Months Free

Small business owners, this one's for you. H&R Block's bookkeeping offer gives new clients their first three months free on Premium or Full-Service bookkeeping (worth up to $525) and Premium or Plus payroll services (worth up to $450). After that, you get a permanent 10% discount on monthly rates until you cancel.

The setup is simple: schedule your free consultation during that October 6-12 window and purchase services by October 31, 2025. Setup fees aren't included in the free months, but the ongoing 10% discount makes this a solid deal for businesses that need consistent bookkeeping support. It's like having a part-time bookkeeper for the cost of software.

Price Match Guarantee for Switchers

Thinking about leaving TurboTax or Jackson Hewitt? H&R Block's price match offer makes switching totally worth it. They'll match what you paid your previous tax preparer up to 50% off their price for your 2024 personal income tax return. The offer runs from January 6 to February 28, 2025, and applies to new in-person clients only.

You'll need to bring an eligible receipt from your 2023 federal and state preparation by a credentialed tax preparer. The discount won't drop your service cost below $99, and it doesn't combine with other offers, but it removes the biggest barrier to switching: paying more for potentially better service.

Referral Rewards That Pay Up to $150 Both Ways

H&R Block's referral program is refreshingly straightforward — and it pays well. Refer a small business owner for bookkeeping services, and you'll earn $20 per referral, up to $300 total. Your referral gets $150 off their bookkeeping services, so everyone wins.

For expat tax services, the deal is even simpler: refer someone who completes a 2023 tax return with H&R Block Expat Tax Services, and you get $50 off your next return. The referred client needs to be someone who hasn't used H&R Block Expat services in the past two years, and your discount applies after they pay for their return.

Financial Products That Bridge Cash Flow Gaps

Beyond tax prep, H&R Block offers financial products that can help with cash flow during tax season. Their Emerald Advance loan provides up to $1,500 with an application deadline of December 31, 2025. The APR is 35.9%, and loan amounts range from $350-$1,300 based on eligibility and credit approval.

They also offer Refund Advance loans in amounts from $250 to $4,000, based on your expected refund. These aren't your actual refund — they're loans against it — but they can provide quick access to funds while you wait for the IRS to process your return. Both products are originated by Pathward, N.A., and subject to underwriting approval.
