About Misfits Market

Founded in 2018, Misfits Market mainly partners with local farms across the United States. It buys fresh produce of the same quality that, for various reasons, never makes it onto store shelves, then bundles it into mixed fruit-and-vegetable boxes and ships them to consumers on a subscription basis. “Misfits” refers to things that do not match expectations, and the startup’s name can be understood as a “market for misfits.” By working with local farms and suppliers, it sells unattractive but perfectly good produce directly to consumers at prices 30%-40% below market rates, such as two-legged carrots, heart-shaped potatoes, and conjoined tomatoes. Similar ugly-produce companies in the U.S. market include Imperfect Foods and Hungry Harvest.

Misfits Market is one of the few delivery services focused on organic produce. It offers high-quality organic food at prices that are often nearly 40% lower than brick-and-mortar stores. Its fresh grocery selection includes fruits and vegetables, seafood, seasonings, dried goods, condiments, snacks, and more, including some organic items that may not be available at regular stores.

In June 2019, Misfits Market announced it had completed a $16.5 million Series A round led by Greenoaks Capital. On July 22, 2020, Misfits Market completed another $85 million Series B round, bringing its total funding to $101.5 million. In April 2021, it announced a $200 million Series C round led by Accel and D1 Capital. After multiple rounds of funding, Misfits Market expanded its service to 48 states and added all types of grocery products.

Misfits Market Subscription Service

Misfits Market charges for its service through two subscription options: a large box for $35, weighing 8 kg to 10 kg, enough for 5 servings and suitable for a family of 4-5 for a week; and a small box for $22, suitable for 1-2 people per week, containing about 4.5 kg to 6 kg of organic food. Customers can choose delivery frequency themselves, either weekly or every other week, and can also skip deliveries. All produce is organic, and the weekly subscription can be canceled at any time. Misfits Market delivers to almost the entire U.S., except Hawaii and Alaska.

Misfits Market Limited-Time Hot Deal

Misfits Market currently has a great limited-time deal.

Step 3: Check your credit card offers. Right now, cards from BofA, Chase, and others have Misfits Market offers that give $5 back on any purchase. After you find the relevant offer, add it to your card.

At checkout, enter promo code MAY22M15 to get an extra $15 off. Stacked with the $20 referral reward, that gives you $35 off total. Then simply pay with a credit card that has a Misfits Market offer. My checkout screenshot is below:

The stacked rewards can offset the $6.99 shipping fee, bringing the final cost to under $3, and you may even come out ahead after the credit card offer. Be sure to cancel or manage the subscription in time so you do not get charged later. If you do not have a Misfits Market offer, I recommend using a virtual credit card.
