Zappos doesn’t advertise a teacher discount, and its coupon page doesn’t mention one. The best way for a teacher to save there is cash back: 7% when you buy a Zappos gift card through Fluz, 4% through TopCashback or 2% through Rakuten. New email subscribers also get 10% off, and anyone can join the free VIP program.
Zappos sells shoes, clothing and bags for the whole family, so if you’re buying shoes you’ll be on your feet in all day, the cash back adds up on a regular order. Browse more clothing and accessories discounts for teachers if you’re shopping around.
How To Get The Zappos Teacher Discount
There’s no teacher program to sign up for, so here’s how to get the most back on a regular order.
- Go to Fluz and buy a Zappos e-gift card in the amount you plan to spend. Cards run from $10 to $250 and work online only.
- Sign in to your Zappos account and shop as usual.
- At checkout, choose “Apply Gift Card or Promo Code” under payment and enter your gift card code.
- Join the free Zappos VIP program and sign up for Zappos emails too. New subscribers get a 10% off code.
Check the total at checkout before you pay. The Fluz rate is 7%, and it applies to the gift card, so buy only what you plan to spend.
Cash Back On A Regular Order
If you’d rather pay with a card and not a gift card, TopCashback gives 4% back on Zappos orders, and Rakuten gives 2%. Rakuten doesn’t pay cash back on gift cards or on orders paid with one, so pick either the gift card route or a regular order, not both on the same purchase. You can start from our TopCashback link or our Rakuten link.
Rates change from day to day, so look at the number on the cash back site right before you shop.
The VIP Program And Email Code
Zappos VIP is free. You earn 1 point for every $1 you spend, get free expedited shipping, and earn bonus points on specific brands. Zappos also says the best thing you can do is sign up for VIP and email so it can send you deals. New email subscribers get 10% off, with one code per email address.
Returns
You have 60 days to return an item for a full refund to your original form of payment, as long as it’s in new condition. That makes it easy to order shoes for the school year and try them on at home first.
What About A Teacher Or Student Discount
Rakuten says Zappos has status discounts for students, teachers and military members, available by verifying on the Zappos website. Zappos doesn’t mention that on its coupon page, and ID.me doesn’t list a Zappos teacher discount, so ask Zappos customer service before you plan around it.
