Want a cheap and easy meal (or even a moneymaker)? Rakuten is offering some serious cashback for new Gobble meal kit subscribers! The amount varies, but keep an eye out for offers of $35-$50.50 cashback. Since the cheapest Gobble meal plan can be around $32-$38 (for 4-6 meals), you could potentially score a meal kit for next to nothing – or even make a profit!

The key is to stack the Rakuten offer with a good promo code. WIN2021 and OLOGY50 have been reported to work, potentially bringing the cost down enough to make a profit of $10 or more, plus free food! However, keep in mind that the Rakuten cashback is typically only available once per member on your initial Gobble subscription signup.

Why does this matter to you? Well, free (or almost free) food is always a win! Plus, Rakuten cashback can be redeemed for straight cash or converted into valuable Membership Rewards points (if you have an eligible American Express card and link your accounts). It's a super easy way to pad your points balance while trying out a new meal kit service. Check Rakuten regularly, as the cashback amount seems to fluctuate.

Why This Matters for Your Strategy

News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.

As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
