If you have never used Lyft before, there’s a good chance a promotional code is waiting for you to save some money off of your first trip with the ride-hailing service.
When you use a promo code, you receive “ride credits” good for a certain percentage or dollar amount off a completed ride. First-time riders can get up to $25 off, while other users can share an individualized code with friends to earn credits toward future rides.
Entering a promo code is easy and can be done by accessing Lyft’s settings menu in the mobile app on your iPhone or Android.
