What is redbox?
Redbox are those big red boxy things at many grocery stores these days where you can rent DVD's. Works better than Netflix for me because I don't watch movies often and it is MUCH cheaper than renting a movie from a Blockbuster store. Try it out. DVD's rented from Redbox can be returned to ANY Redbox location. It's $1 per night per rental. New nights start at either 7:00pm or 9:00pm, it has been extended in some areas, it will say the due back time when you check out.

Some advice:
Check the disc to make sure it's not scratched badly before you leave, if it is just rent another copy, then return the first, call customer service and they will credit you without a problem.

As far as I know coupon codes don't work if you rent the DVDs online then pick it up in the store.

OLD THREAD!!! FIND THE NEW REGENERATED THREAD HERE WHERE THE WIKI IS UP TO DATE==>: https://slickdeals.net/f/6135216-OFFICIAL-Redbox-Free-Rental-Codes-for-new-existing-customers-post-other-codes-here-too?v=1


PLEASE HELP UPDATE THIS WIKI!!!

-----------------------------------
For MOVIES: - Codes work for DVDs (in most cities it makes them free, but not all due to pricing differences) - In other words it takes $1.20 off of DVDs or Blu-rays
1)THERE ARE ONLY three TWO semi-PERMANENT CODES THAT ARE ACTIVE:
THESE TWO CODES YOU MUST TYPE IN RIGHT AT THE REDBOX KIOSK YOU DON'T TEXT THEM & THEY DON'T WORK ONLINE!!!

Long Term Codes:
DVDNIGHT - Works 1 x* per CC, @ any Redbox KIOSK - Valid checked 07-02-2013
DVDONME - Works 1 x* per CC, @ any Redbox KIOSK - Valid checked 07-02-2013
DEAD BREAKROOM - Works 1 x* per CC, @ any Redbox KIOSK - DEAD VERIFIED - on 7-02-2013, 7--3-2013, 7-4-2013 - R.I.P.
DEAD DVDATWAG - (Walgreens only) 1 x per CC* - DEAD VERIFIED - R.I.P.
--------------------------------------------
For VIDEO GAME CODES.
2)How to get them: these are Code words YOU TEXT to 727272 (1st) then Redbox texts you back a code related to Movie or Game Rental
YOU MUST TEXT THESE CODES USING YOUR PHONE TO 727272 FIRST
- GAME CODES MUST BE USED @ THE KIOSK at this point in time.
=No Current Game Code/Text Offers - updated 7-5-2013
* HOWEVER - YMMV - (look for specially marked RED stickers on Energizer batteries - Red Sticker for 1 Free Game Code) - Only known Redbox Game offer Currently running. - 7-5-2013 (P.S. It started many months ago so findings are rare in most areas).

Other ways to get game codes:
Similar to the movie monthly + often bonus codes, the Redbox Gamer's Club gives out 1, or more (bonus) codes every month. After you have signed up for the movie club you should receive a prompt asking you to TEXT Y to 727272 if you wish to sign up for the gamers club. If you don't pay for texts you might as well since you can give them to members who do or try & trade them for movie codes etc.


Tracking the Day of the Week that the Free Movie Code is Released:
Jan 2013 - Sunday (1-13-2013) - BONUS 2nd Code 1/ /201
Feb 2013 -
Mar 6th (WED) 2013 -
***NOTE****CHANGE IN CODE USE** - Redbox allows SOME codes (they specify if it can or can't) to be used to RESERVE the movie online first before you go.

EXPIRED (RECENT DEALS)
Facebook (March Madness Game is Over) - Codes Expired 5-3-2013
Redhead Nation (Redbox Streaming Game Game is Over - Codes Expired 6-30-2013)

EXPIRED - TEXT TO GETCODE #2 Video Game - Posted 6-11-2013 Text: E3 to 727272 the OP thread if I can find it again... Code is good until 6-20-2013
EXPIRED - NOWPLAY is once again dead but may become active in the future 6-3-2013
EXPIRED - Text: TOMB to 727272 (posted 6-1-2013) here is the OP's thread that he shared the code in please rep. Code is good until 6-30-2013 but no word on how long the text to get it will be valid.



* - After a long deal of time try the card again 1-2 years later... for another go around. Or check cards that get re-issued to you either because the account was cancelled due to a lost card or stolen for example; or cards that are re-issued as they expire. - Nothing to lose by trying them again, but a few seconds time.
============================================================
Also, use prepaid gift cards (Visa, Mastercard, Discover) as long as you have at least a $1.20 DVD + Tax, $1.50 + Tax Blu-rays, $2.00 + Tax Games balance (or if you happen to be in a test market whatever the applicable prices are in your area).

The promo code does NOT work if you reserve it online. - However, when you sign up create an account your first reservation nets you a $1.20 off your next rental.

Click here [redbox.com] to find the location nearest you.


HOW TO USE A CODE AT THE KIOSK - Most CODES ARE AT THE KIOSK. IT used to be ALL of them but... (They have begun a limited number of ONLINE codes but they are USUALLY marked CLEARLY for ONLINE RESERVATION ONLY)

To use a promo code, visit a Redbox. Touch "Rent with Promo Code" and enter a valid promo code.
Select the movie you want. Touch "add to cart". The price will come up as $1.20 minus $1.20 for a total of $0 -- Free Rental! (PRICES UPDATED to reflect DVD now cost $1.20
or $1.50 for Blu-ray - $1.20 = $0.30 + tax on that amount.
Touch "Check out" and you will be prompted to slide your credit card through.
Enter in your e-mail when prompted or touch "no thanks".
Enter in your zip code that appears on your credit card's statement.

You have until 9pm the next day to return your movie for no charge. Additional days are $1.20/day plus tax. After 25 days ($24 with code), (IS THAT PRICING CURRENT) the movie is considered yours to keep.
Some machines allow movie purchases for $6 + tax (prices may vary). DVD's can be returned to ANY Redbox, not just the one you got it from.

Promo codes are valid once per credit card. You can enter in your email address at the machine to be added to a mailing list where more free codes will come as well as your receipt. Prepaid credit cards - have been shut down.

New Redbox Code may come ANY DAY* of the month from Redbox text 727272 - * this has changed from the Redbox literature still on their site (not first monday, although it could be, it's any day of the month they choose).

FAQs About Monthly Codes

What's the Redbox text club?
The Redbox text club is a group of customers who want to get great deals on their phones. If you're a member, you'll get special Redbox deals & freebies texted straight to your phone – including a free promo code every month!
How do I sign up for the Redbox text club?
All you have to do is text the word SIGNUP to 727272. (Up to 2 messages a week, only available on participating carriers, message and data rates may apply, and you can always text HELP for help & STOP to quit.)
Why aren't you sending promo codes on the first Monday of the month anymore?
Text club members told Redbox that they wanted free promo codes on more days than just Mondays, and Redbox listened! Now, instead of Movie Mondays, you can expect your free promo codes to be texted to you on days of the week that aren't just Mondays. You'll still be sent one free promo code per month.
If I've already signed up for Free Movie Mondays, do I have to register again?
Nope! As long as your phone number & carrier haven't changed, you won't need to re-register for the text club.
Can the free monthly promo code be used to rent Blu-ray™ movies or video games?
Yes! Using your promo code for a Blu-ray movie or video game will take $1 off the price of your first day's rental.
Will I be charged for the promo codes I receive from the text club?
Redbox will never charge you for the promo codes you receive from the text club. You might see some message & data rate charges from your mobile provider, though, so be sure to check your plan.
I got a promo code thru the text club, but it didn't work. What should I do?
The promo code will only work on the day you receive it. If you tried to use your code on the day you received it but it still didn't work, please contact the Redbox Customer Care team.
I didn't get my free monthly promo code texted to me until the nighttime, so I didn't have a chance to use it. What should I do?
Redbox always sends out the free promo code texts between 8 am and 10 am, local time (based on the area code of your cell phone). If your promo code comes later than that, it might be an issue with your phone. Please call your mobile provider to find out what's going on.

yeah people write bots to scrape this thread and others

they can still make bots that log in but much harder if you say it's in your profile and put it into some random field/page

This makes sense to me.

And while I appreciate people who post their codes for others to use, what I can't seem to understand are the "Quote if you use the code" posts. If you post a code, you're basically throwing a $20 bill into a large crowd. Asking people to then "Quote if you use the code" is like paper-clipping a note to the $20 bill that says "Please text me if you use this $20 bill." What's the point? You threw the money at a bunch of strangers with the assumption that someone will pick it up and use it. The logical conclusion is that it will be picked up a short time after it is thrown, so why the concern for knowing when or who picked it up?

I suppose one explanation would be so that other people don't waste their time trying to use it, but really, with the amount of people monitoring this thread, unless you use it within minutes of it being posted it can be safely assumed that it's gone.

Am I missing something?

Actually it seems the profile trick no longer works because since they've changed the software recently (this year?) the "additional information" fields are not shown anywhere that I can find in profiles.

It used to be you could stick the code in "job" or "interests" and only members could view it, but now all I see is activity stream and nothing else and no options to control displaying the extra info.

Unless maybe it's only hidden in the midnight theme that I use.

I do a lot of Staples rebates that come in the form of a prepaid Visa card.
I always use these cards at Redbox before depleting the whole card.
Each new card is good for as many free Redbox rentals as you can get codes.
You can use them for the three main codes I know of, breakroom, dvdnight, and dvdonme.
On top of that, you can use them for other limited time promotional codes, e.g. fathers day, kroger, etc etc.
I assume this will work on all forms of prepaid/gift credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Discover) but I'm not sure about that, just an assumption.
Apparently prepaid Amex cards may or may not work depending on the issuer.
I recently was thanked when I brought this up in a Staples thread and I figured, why not create a new thread.
Hopefully this isn't a dupe, if so just MA it and I apologize in advance.
If it's not a dupe, I hope this info helps at least some people.
For me, I haven't paid for a Redbox in over a year because of this.

If anyone knows of any other codes that aren't time limited, I'll add them to the OP.

Are the codes one-time use only? Is that why you need pre-paid cards (so that you can use the codes again with a new card)?

Exactly.
Each code is good once per card.
I keep getting new cards so I always have a card available to use those three codes on.

We know.

Also, most prepaid/rebate AMEX cards do not work at Redbox.

Visit Redbox.com and it tells you to text 727272 to sign up. On average, you receive one to two free movie rental codes per month via text, and one to two free game rental codes per month (usually a free code per month plus an additional code to celebrate a holiday).


The other three codes that the OP posted are always-free codes that work once per card.

A always had success with the VISA cards.. Amex never worked.. I even maintained an excel sheet to keep track of the cards I used for movies ;-) OP may need to highlight the codes so that others can easily understand..

The codes like DVDONME, BREAKROOM worked for each card once.. Thanks for the new code DVDNIGHT..

Basically, each VISA card will give you 3 free movies.. The codes work as free for DVDs and .39 cents for blu-rays.. But make sure you have atleast $1 balance in the card..
