TaxAct free for Keybank users *all products*

+11 Deal Score
13,233 Views
Offer appeared when logged in to Keybank app / website.

While basic returns are already free with TaxAct, more complicated situations raise the price to anywhere from $10-50 for federal and $20-40 for state ($30-90 combined). While they frequently run deals, I often see those as Fed only.

The catch is consent to share certain tax information with Key. This may or may not concern you.


"The 2018 TaxAct Premier+ tax preparation software including any needed upgrade to Self Employed+, as well as federal and state filing fees, will be provided at no cost through October 15, 2019 to all KeyBank customers who consent to TaxAct sharing with KeyBank certain demographic and tax information, which will be used by KeyBank to provide financial wellness services to our customers."

I personally wouldn't go this route

I DO use Taxact (for years)

I have been filing both Fed and State for Free (using the deluxe) by husband being in military.
Not sure if they discount retired military (34 yrs) or not

I have been using Taxact for years and am looking for a deal but I value my privacy much more than this discount.

Thanks OP! Self-employed version is $50, or $60 for Turbotax Business. I really don't care if they know how much refund I get or how much I make.

I clicked through the page and got to the taxact login page.

Can someone confirm that I DONT need to be a key member for the promo to work?

I'd hate to spend hours filing only to be prompted for my key login credentials.

where do you get Turbotax Business for $60? Could you share the link?

btw, I can confirm that both Fed and State in this deal are listed as FREE after checking the return fee section.

I don't think it will pop up anything at the end, just look like a regular return with $0 fee.

I logged into my account today (link not on the mobile app) and saw a link to click for free federal and state efile. (The fine print says that they will get your personal information from taxact in order to provide you with financial products through key bank.)
