My Best Buy Members With Apple Watches Purchased Before September 15 Eligible for Extra Free Month of Fitness+

by

Best Buy has teamed up with Apple for several Fitness+ trial exclusives, which offer extended access to Apple Watch owners who are also Best Buy customers.

Customers who purchased an Apple Watch Series 3, Series 6, or SE from Best Buy after on or after September 15, 2020, are eligible for a total of six months of Fitness+ access for free. Best Buy is offering an additional three month trial that combines with Apple's three month trial.

My Best Buy customers who already owned a qualifying Apple Watch before September 15, 2020 that was purchased from Best Buy can get one additional free month of Fitness+ on top of the one month trial offered by Apple for a total of two months free.

Eligible Best Buy customers are receiving an email through their Best Buy accounts that can be used to redeem the free Fitness+ trial, with more information available on Best Buy's site.

Note that some users have been having issues getting Apple Fitness+ to recognize their free three month trial. There is no solution beyond contacting Apple Support at this time, so those affected should get in touch with Apple for help.

I just got my 6 month code. You have to do Apple’s three months and then enter the Best Buy code for an additional three months. I hope everyone gets their emails soon!
I got my code from Best Buy, and now all done I have 7 months free! It expires in July now for me.

1. Apple 3 Free Month Trial (you do this first per the Best Buy instructions too)
2. Redeem Best Buy's 3 Month Code from buying an Apple Watch via them.
3. Redeem the 2nd code I got from buying the promotional item linked from @MorganB below. It says 2 months but added me one more month, so now I expire in July vs June.


For those that aren’t buying a watch but are a Best Buy member, the link for the free 2 month trial is working now.

Good to hear! So I guess support was right and those of us still waiting for the BB code can go ahead and sign up for the 3 month trial? I didn’t do it when I read “not combinable with any other offers” at the bottom of the BestBuy page regarding the promo.
I was skeptical when reading the fine print too. However, Best Buy just have you redeem it using the same procedure as redeeming a gift card.
