inKind Dining App: New $25 off $50/$75 Offers (California Pizza Kitchen)

Added two new offers for both new/existing users. inKind is a startup that provides restaurants financing in exchange for “food and beverage credit”. Retail consumers can use inKind to pay their food bill at participating restaurants through the app and get 20% back in “inKind Cash” credit on their bills. They say over 4,000 restaurants are in their network, mostly nicer local spots, but some chains like California Pizza Kitchen are also included (which is a favorite for our family).

The good thing is that you don’t have to let the server know ahead of time, or do anything awkward like using a coupon. You just get the check and then use the inKind app to pay. All the restaurants use the same backend Toast software, so you just need a number from the top of the paper bill. Within the inKind app, you can link your existing rewards credit card and also earn those rewards on your net cost (will still code as dining). inKind works primarily for dine-in, but some restaurants do specifically allow take-out. You are supposed to order the takeout from within the inKind app, but as long as you get the bill with the code, you should be able to pay using the app.

Start-ups mean promotions to encourage fast growth, so here are two current promos that you can get:

New customers should first open via a $25 off $50+ referral link (that’s mine, thanks if you use it!). Expires 30 days after claiming. “Friend of Jonathan”. Existing customers can visit this separate $25 off $50+ link for another order. Expires 30 days after claiming. Added August 2025 and marked as “Anniversary Gift”. Existing customers can visit this other separate $25 off $75+ link for another order. Expires 30 days after claiming. Added August 2025 and marked as “Birthday Gift”. Found via Doctor of Credit.

If you have a big bill, know that you can “split the check” within the app, so that two separate people can use a $25 off $50 discount in their respective inKind apps.

You should see your multiple offers in the app:

California Pizza Kitchen is part of the inKind network, and they are a reliable way to use these offers. They usually have some sort of promo going, like right now they have $10 Pizzas on Monday and Tuesday that you can stack.

Now, I can’t guarantee this will work for you, but this may work with CPK take-out and not just dine-in. (Be sure order directly from CPK.com or over the phone, not another app like Doordash or Grubhub.) The place we go to just has a separate take-out counter and the default check that comes from them should work with inKind. If not, tell them you want to pay with inKind and they should be able to generate the right check with the number on top. Make sure you meet the minimum purchase amount.
