The Mac mini and Claude Team offer gives your business up to $200 off the first billing month of a new Team plan when you buy a qualifying Mac mini through CDW. This article explains who can redeem the offer, how redemption works, and what to do if something doesn't go as expected.
The offer is available for new Team organizations only, is limited to one per company, and requires a business email address. It runs for a limited time, while offer links last.
Who can redeem
To redeem the offer, you need:
A qualifying Mac mini purchased through CDW during the offer period
A business email address (you can’t use public domains like @gmail.com, @yahoo.com, or @hotmail.com to create a Team plan)
A company that doesn't already have a Team or Enterprise plan
If you already use Claude on a Free, Pro, Max, or Ultra plan, you can still redeem the offer. It applies when you create a new Team organization for your company. Team plans start at two seats, and the offer applies to monthly billing only.
How to redeem
Follow these steps to apply for the offer and start your Team plan. Use your offer link before you set up a Team plan. The offer applies only to a new Team plan created through the link, and you can’t add it to a Team plan you’ve already bought.
Buy a qualifying Mac mini through CDW.
Check your email for a unique, one-time offer link from CDW. CDW sends it after confirming your purchase.
Open the complete link from CDW's email. Your signup code is part of the link itself, so use the full link rather than retyping it.
Sign in to Claude with your business email, or create an account.
Submit the application.
Complete checkout after your application is approved. You’ll continue straight to Team plan signup. The discount applies automatically, and we charge your card for anything it doesn’t cover.
What happens after you apply
Approved: You're taken directly to Team checkout, and the discount applies at payment.
Processing: You’ll see a "we’re processing" message, and you should receive an email with the outcome.
Not eligible: You’ll see "We couldn’t confirm your eligibility." This can mean your company already has a Team or Enterprise plan, or the offer has already been claimed for your company. If you believe this is a mistake, contact [email protected].
What the discount covers
The discount covers your first billing month’s Standard or Premium seat cost for a new Team organization, up to $200. Any unused amount doesn’t carry over. The discount doesn’t apply to usage credits.
The offer applies to monthly billing only and can’t be used on an annual plan. If you switch to annual billing during your first billing month, the discount ends and you forfeit any unused amount. After your first billing month, your plan renews monthly at the regular price for your seats unless you cancel.
Troubleshooting
Your offer link hasn't arrived
CDW sends the offer link by email after confirming your purchase. If it hasn’t arrived, check your spam folder, then contact CDW about your order. Anthropic can’t see or resend CDW’s emails.
"Invalid signup code"
The signup code is part of the link. Open the complete link from CDW’s email. A shortened, retyped, or truncated link fails with this message.
"We couldn't confirm your eligibility"
This can mean your company's email domain is already connected to a Team or Enterprise plan, or the one-per-company offer has already been claimed. If you believe this is a mistake, contact [email protected].
Your application is stuck on "processing"
You should receive an email with the outcome. If you’ve been waiting and nothing has arrived, email [email protected] and we’ll check on your application.
Your discount is missing or disappeared
If the discount didn’t apply at checkout, or disappeared from a later invoice, contact us before making any changes to your plan. The offer applies to monthly billing only, so switching to annual billing removes the discount.
You're asked for a work email
Team plans require a business email address to create the organization. If your business doesn’t have its own email domain, you can’t redeem this offer. After you create the organization, you can invite users individually at their personal email addresses. If you applied with a personal email first, you can redo the application with your business email using the same link from CDW, as long as you haven’t reached checkout.
You bought more than one Mac mini
The offer is one per company, regardless of how many Mac minis you purchase.
Your payment was declined or the subscription couldn’t be created
Stop and email [email protected] with the time, the error message, and a screenshot of the checkout. Please don’t include your full card number or security code. Don’t start a Team plan another way in the meantime, as that plan won’t have the discount.
