Kosher dining out is already expensive. Between the hashgacha overhead and the smaller-scale operations that define most kosher restaurants, prices run higher than their non-kosher counterparts. So when a legitimate app comes along that can knock $25 off your bill at kosher restaurants you’re already going to, you pay attention. That app is InKind, and this is our refreshed rundown of the current referral offer, the discounted gift card deals, the growing list of kosher restaurants in the network, and one important change diners need to know about before they buy in.
What Is InKind?
InKind is a dining app with a genuinely different business model from your typical rewards program. Instead of skimming a percentage off transactions in exchange for points, InKind provides upfront capital to partner restaurants. Restaurants sell dining credits to InKind at a discount, and InKind passes a portion of those savings directly to diners. The result: you earn 20% back on every meal you pay for through the app. No blackout dates, no restrictions on what you order, no awkward conversations with your server.
Paying with InKind is straightforward, and the whole thing happens on your phone. You don’t need to announce at the table that you’re paying with InKind when you sit down. Just eat, and when you’re ready to close out, pay through the app.
The $25 Welcome Offer
Here’s the part you’re here for. New users who sign up through this link get $25 off their first meal of $50 or more at any InKind partner restaurant. That’s a real $25 discount off your actual bill, not a credit buried in fine print.
Use this link to sign up and claim your $25:
app.inkind.com/refer/IV6MOTLC
Or download the app and enter code IV6MOTLC when prompted during sign-up.
The referral program works both ways. Once you’re signed up and using InKind, you can share your own referral link with friends. When they sign up and close their first bill, you get $50. Pass it along to family and friends who dine out kosher regularly and it adds up fast.
My Experience Paying with InKind
Using InKind to pay in stores in the InKind network requires you to have the app downloaded and one credit card synced to it – I used my American Express Gold card, which is the card I always use for dining and groceries. Once you’re ready to pay at the register or with the bill, ask to pay via InKind. Show them the QR code in the app; they will scan it, and you’re done. The only $ amount not covered by InKind is the tip added after purchase.
The Catch: Gift Cards No Longer Stack With Discounts
This is the one change every InKind user needs to understand. InKind has tightened its rules, and as of July 2026 you can no longer combine the $25 referral credit or other promotional discounts with gift-card payment on the same check. Splitting the bill between people no longer works around it either. That loophole is closed.
What that means in practice: the discounted gift cards still deliver a real 35% savings, and the $25 welcome credit is still real money off your first qualifying meal. You just can’t double them up on a single transaction anymore. The smart move is to use the $25 referral credit on one meal, then burn through your discounted Costco gift cards on separate visits. Both work. They just don’t work together.

A few notes on this update. Hatch Kitchen in the Pico-Robertson section of Los Angeles is a recent addition, and worth calling out because it does not always surface when you search “kosher” inside the app, so you have to look for it by name. On the flip side, Hikari in Surfside has dropped off the InKind network, and Bubby’s Fish & Chips in Miami has permanently closed entirely, so both are off this list.
Do Not Use InKind to Search for Kosher Restaurants
This is critical. Someone already made this mistake on a delivery app, assuming the platform would only surface kosher eateries. InKind is a payment and rewards app, not a kosher directory. If you search for “kosher” inside the app, you get a mix of results, and plenty of those restaurants are not kosher at all.
Use InKind the right way. Find a kosher restaurant through a trusted source first, then check whether that specific restaurant is in the InKind network. Confirm the restaurant’s current kosher certification before you order, and confirm it is still an active InKind partner before you go.
