Lyft has sent out an e-mail to anybody who added these codes stating:
It looks like you entered one or more ride codes posted by a third party deal site: SAFEROADS17, LYFTSONBUD17, STAYSAFE17, BUDCARES17, PLANAHEAD17
These codes are not valid. We apologize for any inconvenience or confusion this has caused.
To claim future ride codes worth up to $20 in credit, head to Budweiser’s Facebook and Instagram page every Thursday at 2 PM EST through the end of the year.
Ride on.
Was worth a try, time to move onto the next deal. We will try to post the codes when they go live, but I wouldn’t rely on us getting them out before they expire.
[Update: added another $20 code. Total of $100 now.]
The Offer
Beginning Thursday, Sept. 21, through the end of the year, Budweiser is providing up to 10,000 round-trip rides every weekend across nine states: New York, Colorado, Illinois, Florida, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Texas, Georgia; plus Washington, D.C.
Budweiser will share a unique ride code on its Facebook and Instagram channels each Thursday at 2 p.m. ET, which new and existing Lyft users over the age of 21 can use to claim a $20 ride credit (two $10 one-way rides) through the Lyft app. The credits can be redeemed for rides taken between 5 p.m. and 5 a.m. local time that Thursday, Friday or Saturday night.
