How to apply a Staples promo code

Adding a code at the Staples check out is easy. First, select the items you want to buy and add them to your cart. You can then click the cart icon to view the cart and check all the added items are there correctly. On the right, under the final total, is the section for coupons. Click on the 'add' button next to the header and this opens a side menu to input the promotional and discount codes.

Copy and paste your code into the box and keep clicking add to input each new code that you have. Make sure that the code has appeared after you've applied it by checking the summary and the final total of your order. Only then should you move on to make the payment.

Troubleshooting when a Staples discount code doesn't work

You may find that a Staples code doesn't work when you apply it to your cart. When this happens, there are still steps you can take to make sure it is added properly to your order. The first step is to re-enter your code exactly, making sure that it is correct. Check whether there is a minimum spend attached to the code.

Alternatively, check the item or category exclusions as you may be trying to buy something that doesn't come under the code requirements. It's also important to check the expiration date to ensure it hasn't expired. Try a different code from the list or check that auto-applied savings in the order have not prevented the coupon from being added.

Stacking and combinability rules

While some codes can be stacked, many cannot. Staples allows as many as five promo codes to be applied per order. But this is the maximum. Trying to add more than this will result in the code not being applied. However, while stacking is permitted, some cannot be stacked. Finally, it's worth your time testing the order and application of each code so that you can maximize savings without clashing promos.

Where to find more deals

Looking for discounts for Staples is relatively straightforward. On staples.com, there is a coupon corner that you can explore for on-site coupons and discounts. Signing up to the newsletter is also a great way to stay ahead of the latest offers, knowing exactly what's about to drop. For example, with Staples, signing up to the newsletter means claiming a welcome code too, which can be as much as $15 off $60 and is a commonly offered deal. Finally, on the homepage, use the sliders or deals tab to track any markdowns on products or even reward promotions.

Save without codes: shipping, pickup, app, and price match

In some cases, you don't even need to use a code. For example, check what the free shipping threshold is and aim to reach it. It's important to check what the current threshold is as this differs depending on the products. For example, print products require a minimum spend of $59.99 for free shipping to be applied. Rather than getting items delivered, 1-hour in-store pickup is a solid option. This can yield up to 30% in savings, though this depends on the items, location, and availability.

Making purchases on Staples' mobile app also gives discounts, such as on-the-go deals and tracking rewards. And, there is a Price Match feature against Amazon and other major retailers, which can result in savings too.

Staples Easy Rewards — how it works and how to stack

Another way to save is signing up for the Staples Easy Rewards program. To get this offer, simply sign up to Staples. Then, the Easy Rewards program is automatically applied whenever you shop. You earn 1 point for every $1 spent. For active members, these points never expire. And, you can earn 2x or even 3x the amount on items that you purchase a lot.

Seasonal timing: when big savings drop

Checking to make purchases during major seasonal sales is another way to save. Black Friday and Cyber Monday are both important days to check for discounts and major savings. Similarly, holiday or weekend events like Memorial Day see items like electronics, furniture, print services and office supplies trending at reduced prices.

For business buyers and repeat orders

Anyone looking to make larger purchases, then the Staples Business Advantage is the way to go. This includes custom pricing, and account support. Auto Restock is a lock-in convenience and helps shoppers avoid price spikes. Buyers should also compare unit costs against bulk promotions. However, standard consumer coupons may have different eligibility on business accounts, which will require checking.

Staples Promo Codes & Savings — Complete FAQ

Can I stack cashback with promo codes?

Often yes. Most reputable cashback portals track rewards even when you use coupons, though exclusions apply. Always click through the cashback portal last to ensure proper tracking and avoid losing your payout.

Do price-matched items accept promo codes?

Sometimes. Staples’ price-match policy may prevent additional coupons from being applied to an already-matched item. Try entering your code, but be prepared to follow the stricter rule if the system blocks it.

How many promo codes can I apply per order?

You can apply up to five codes on a single Staples order. Keep in mind that instant savings or product-specific discounts may override or conflict with certain promo codes.

Where can I quickly find all in-site promos?

Head to Deals → Coupon Corner on staples.com to see all current on-site offers in one place. This section includes active coupons, limited-time promotions, and quick-apply deals.

Why isn’t my promo code applying even though it’s valid?

Codes often fail due to category restrictions, minimum spend requirements, or auto-applied discounts already in your cart. Re-enter the code exactly and review item exclusions. If an instant savings conflicts with a coupon, remove it and try again.

Do in-store pickup orders accept coupons?

Yes, most promo codes work with 1-hour pickup orders. Since pickup can already offer up to 30% savings, ensure the selected promo doesn't exclude pickup-eligible items. The cart summary will show whether the code is applied correctly.

Can I combine Easy Rewards with promo codes?

Absolutely. Easy Rewards points are earned automatically on qualifying purchases, even when you apply promo codes or use cashback portals. Bonus-earn categories can still multiply your points regardless of coupons used.

Are app-only promotions stackable with web coupons?

Often yes. App-exclusive discounts typically trigger at checkout and can be combined with standard site promo codes—unless they clash with instant savings. Always confirm the final promo mix in the order summary.

Do Staples price-matched items still earn rewards or qualify for free shipping?

Yes. Even if a promo code cannot be applied to a price-matched item, the purchase still earns Easy Rewards points. Free shipping eligibility depends on reaching the required minimum for the specific product category (e.g., $59.99 for print products).
