How does payment work? Is it secure?

We take payment security very seriously and do not store our customers' full credit card information on file. Instead, we bill using a secure method called tokenization.

A token is an encrypted, randomly-generated code that is assigned to your payment details during the checkout to securely bill you.

Why did my payment fail?

There are many reasons why a payment may have failed. To resolve this, we recommend trying the following:

  • If using a Credit Card, please check to ensure that it is not expired, if expired, you may update new credit card information here

  • Ensure that there are sufficient funds in your account.

  • Call your bank or financial institution to find out what is wrong with your account and the reason for the failure.

  • Ensure that the billing address on your HelloFresh account is updated.

Why am I seeing a $1 charge?

The $1 you may see at checkout is simply an authorization charge to verify the validity of the payment method you are using.

If you update your payment method on an active subscription, you will also see a $1 charge to verify the validity of the new payment method you are using.

Rest assured, however, this dollar will be returned to you with 5-10 business days.

Will I receive an email confirmation for my gift card purchase(s)?
Yes, you will receive an email confirmation after purchasing a gift card. This email will also include a printable card for you to download and give to the recipient. If the recipient(s) do not receive the email confirmation, we suggest they check their spam folders.
Can I purchase more than one gift card?
Absolutely! In order to purchase more than one gift card at a time, you must add each gift card for each product separately. However, you can pay for multiple gift cards at the end of the checkout process.
How do I apply a coupon or voucher?

Currently, some coupons can only be applied when opening a new subscription or reactivating a canceled one.

There will be a promo code box during the checkout or reactivation process.

Simply enter your code there and click Apply.

If you received your voucher in an email, just click on the link in your email and follow the prompts to apply your discount.

How do I redeem a HelloFresh discount?
All HelloFresh discounts, vouchers, and gift cards can be redeemed directly at checkout for new customers, or applied to active subscription accounts by clicking here
