Shake Shack is giving away its signature Shackburger for free on a $10+ purchase, and the offer runs through September 30, 2026. The deal is live now through the Shake Shack mobile app, website, and in-restaurant kiosks, with one code you have to remember: BURGERTIME.
The Deal At A Glance
The promotion is simple. Spend $10 or more on delivery or pickup, enter the code “BURGERTIME” at checkout, and you get a free single-patty Shackburger. The catch is the code: you have to type it in yourself when you order.
The offer applies to the standard Shackburger, which pairs a quarter-pound Angus beef patty with American cheese, ShackSauce, leaf lettuce, and tomato on a toasted potato bun. The burger normally costs $7.99 in Los Angeles, where the reviewer says they eat it.
How To Redeem
The promotion is available through three paths:
- Order through the Shake Shack mobile app.
- Order through the Shake Shack website.
- Order through an in-restaurant kiosk.
The code is the same across all three, and Shake Shack is not making it easy to forget. BURGERTIME is the only code you need, and it must be entered at checkout to get the free burger.
What You Get For Your Money
The Shackburger is the centerpiece of Shake Shack’s menu. The patty is quarter-pound Angus beef. The toppings include American cheese, ShackSauce, leaf lettuce, and tomato. The bun is toasted potato.
The burger costs $7.99 in Los Angeles, where the reviewer says they eat it. That is the full price you would normally pay, and the deal waves it entirely on a $10+ purchase.
What The Code Is For
The code “BURGERTIME” is the activation key for the free Shackburger. Without it, the burger stays on the menu at full price. The code is the same no matter which ordering path you choose.
The code is the only detail you need to remember. It is the same for delivery, pickup, and in-restaurant kiosk orders.
Other Deals Running Now
Shake Shack is also running a separate promotion that gives away a free Chicken Shack on Sundays with a $10+ order. That deal runs through December 27, 2026.
The other ongoing promotion is a discount on sodas, crinkle-cut fries, and shakes. Those items cost $2 for sodas, $4 for fries, and $6 for regular menu shakes when you order through the app or website. No code is required for that one.
The Bottom Line
Shake Shack is running three promotions at once, and the Shackburger deal is the most generous of the three. A free burger on a $10+ purchase is a straightforward offer that rewards both the loyal customer and the first-time diner.
The deal is limited to the standard single-patty Shackburger, and it is only available through September 30, 2026.
The code is the key detail. Remember BURGERTIME at checkout, and you get the burger. It is a simple offer, but it is a good one.
