Temu built its reputation on low prices, but the sticker price is rarely the lowest one available. Between automatic checkout discounts, coupon bundles, flash sales, clearance markdowns and a few policies most shoppers never use, there’s usually a way to pay less than what the listing shows.

The catch is that these offers all work differently. Some apply automatically at checkout, some reward you for opening the app, some run on a timer and some kick in only after you’ve paid. Knowing which is which is the difference between a good deal and a great one.

Get $200 Off Automatically at Checkout

Temu is currently running a $200 discount that applies automatically at checkout, no code needed, valid through Dec. 31, 2026. As of publishing, we didn’t have confirmation of a minimum order requirement.

A separate $20 discount also applies automatically at checkout for eligible orders, valid through Dec. 31, 2026 — worth knowing about if your order doesn’t qualify for the larger $200 discount.

Unlock a $100 Discount Bundle for Storewide Savings

Temu also offers a $100 discount bundle you can unlock for storewide savings, valid through Jan. 1, 2027. Check the promotions banner on the homepage or app to see your current eligibility and how to activate it.

Temu New Users Discount: 30% Off

If you’re shopping on Temu for the first time, a 30% discount applies automatically at checkout, capped at $25 per person, valid through Dec. 31, 2026. Combine it with a Spin to Win bundle for even bigger first-order savings.

Spin to Win Up to $100 in Bonus Coupons on the Temu App

The spin-to-win wheel takes about five seconds and can hand you a bundle of coupons worth up to $100. Open the Temu app, look for the pop-up in the bottom left corner of the homepage, and tap it to spin.

  • Bundle value: $15, $20, $50, $70 or $100
  • What’s inside: Four to 20 individual coupons, each worth $5 to $45
  • The catch: Most coupons require a minimum order, usually $40 to $150
  • Time limit: Every coupon in the bundle expires after one day
  • One per customer: The offer works only once

Temu Lightning Deals: Flash Prices Under $3

Temu’s lightning deals are flash sales that drop select items to $2.99 or less, spanning beauty, health, clothing, home and kitchen, shoes, sports, toys and more. There’s also a rotating “up to $50 off” lightning deals track that runs alongside the under-$3 flash prices, valid through Dec. 31, 2026.

The catch is timing. The selection refreshes continuously, so a deal you spot now may be gone in an hour.

Temu Clearance Deals: Up to 90% Off or More

How to Get Free Shipping on Temu

Most orders that meet the minimum threshold ship free, generally covering items shipped directly from Temu. Local sellers work differently — when your subtotal from a single seller is over $30, that order often ships free, though the exact minimum varies by seller.

Temu also backs its delivery estimates. If your order arrives late, Temu credits you automatically:

  • Standard shipping: $5 credit
  • Express shipping: $8 to $13 credit

Never Overpay With the Temu Price Match Guarantee

  • 30-day window: Find the same item cheaper on a competitor’s site within 30 days and Temu refunds the difference.
  • Exact match only: Same model, size and color.
  • Where to claim: Go to “Your Orders” and select the order.
  • When you’re paid: Temu verifies your proof and processes the refund in about two business days.

First Return Ships Free

Temu now covers the cost of your first return shipping on eligible items, within the standard return window, valid through Jan. 1, 2027. After that first free return, standard return shipping terms apply.

What to Do If Your Temu Coupon Code Isn’t Working

  • Check the expiration date.
  • Review the terms — minimum purchase, category exclusions and account restrictions.
  • Look for typos.
  • Remove any other discount — Temu allows only one per order.
  • Clear your cache or use incognito mode.

Editor’s Take

Stack the automatic $200 discount with the 30% new-user discount on your first order — both apply without a code, and together they beat any single Spin to Win bundle on a large cart. Very good.

Skip the $20 auto-applied discount if your cart already qualifies for the $200 discount. Only one discount applies per order on Temu.
