FAQs from protein works
What does Protein Works sell?
Protein Works makes sports nutrition products in-house, including whey and vegan protein shakes, meal replacements, and performance supplements like creatine and vitamins. Products are organised into three innovation tiers: BLACK (essential), GOLD (advanced), and PLATINUM (signature).
Are Protein Works products good quality?
Yes. Protein Works is an award-winning brand that manufactures its products in-house, which gives them direct control over quality and formulation. Their tiered range, BLACK, GOLD, and PLATINUM, reflects different levels of product development, from core essentials to signature formulations.
Does Protein Works offer bundle deals?
Yes. Protein Works groups products into bundles by training goal, priced lower than buying items individually. Current options include the One Month Weight Loss Pack from €74.99 (with a free supplement) and the Savoury SuperMeals Bundle from €54.99 (with a free meal jar).
Is there a student discount at Protein Works?
Yes, and it runs all year, not just during sales. Verified students can access a discount through either UNiDAYS or Student Beans. Register and verify your status through whichever platform you already use, then connect it to your Protein Works account before checkout.
What is the 16–25 and Apprentice discount at Protein Works?
Protein Works offers special pricing for eligible members aged 16–25 and apprentices through the Youth Discount platform. You'll need to register and verify your eligibility through Youth Discount before the saving can be applied to your order.
Is there a friend referral scheme at Protein Works?
Yes. New customers get €10 off their first order when referred by an existing customer. The person doing the referring earns €10 credit once their friend places an order. There's no complicated sign-up: just share or use a referral link before placing a first order.
Can I get free delivery from Protein Works?
Yes. Orders of €70 or more qualify for free standard delivery. Below that threshold, standard delivery costs €5.49. If your order is close to €70, adding a smaller item or a bundle can bring you over the threshold and save you the delivery fee.
What are the delivery options at Protein Works?
Protein Works offers the following delivery options:
-
Standard delivery: €5.49 (free on orders over €70)
-
Next Day Delivery: available for Monday arrival if you order before noon on Sunday
Check the Protein Works website at checkout for the full list of available delivery options.
What is the Protein Works returns policy?
Returning an item to Protein Works is straightforward. Here's how the process works:
-
You have 90 days from receipt to notify Protein Works that you want to make a return.
-
Contact the help section on the Protein Works website to get your return authorised before sending anything back.
-
You have up to 180 days to physically return the item once notified.
-
Refunds are processed within 48 hours of the return arriving at HQ.
What is the Protein Works Money Back Guarantee?
The Money Back Guarantee allows you to exchange a product if you don't like the flavour, a useful safety net when trying something new. It's limited to once per order and once every 365 days per customer, so it's designed for genuine cases rather than regular swaps.
Smart Ways to Save More on Every Protein Works Order
Protein Works packs a lot of value into their range: science-backed nutrition across BLACK, GOLD, and PLATINUM tiers, made in-house for quality control. But there are also some genuinely useful ways to pay less, whether you're stocking up on whey protein, trying a meal replacement plan, or picking up a bundle for a specific training goal.
On this vouchercloud page you'll find the best current protein works deals rounded up, including active sale codes and any free gift promotions running right now.
How to Use a Protein Works Voucher Code at Checkout
Applying a promo code on the Protein Works website is straightforward. Here's how to do it:
-
Add your chosen products to your basket and head to checkout.
-
Look for the field labelled 'discount code' or 'voucher code' on the order summary page.
-
Type or paste your code into the field and click apply.
-
Check that the saving has been deducted from your order total before completing payment.
-
If the code isn't working, check the minimum spend requirement, as some codes need a basket of €40 or more. Also confirm the code applies to the items in your basket, as certain codes are restricted to selected products. Only one code can be used per order.
Save 15% Off Selected Products in the Summer Sale
The Summer Sale at Protein Works is currently live, and it's one of the better moments to stock up. 15% off is available on selected products, including weight loss shakes, when you apply the current Summer Sale code at checkout.
That kind of saving adds up quickly on bigger orders, particularly if you're buying a month's supply of meal replacements or a full performance stack. The sale is described as a limited-time event, so it's worth moving sooner rather than later.
Find the active Summer Sale code on this vouchercloud page and enter it at checkout to see the saving applied to eligible items.
Get a Free GOLD Supplement on Orders Over €40
Spend €40 or more in a single order and you can claim a free Thermopro Burn, a product from the GOLD innovation tier, by entering the relevant code at checkout. This is a free gift offer, not a discount, so it doesn't reduce your basket total, but it does add a genuine GOLD-tier product at no extra cost.
Stock is limited, so this one won't last indefinitely. If your order is already nudging €40, it's worth checking whether you can round it up to qualify.
The code for this offer is listed on this vouchercloud page. Add it at checkout alongside your order.
Bundle Deals and Package Offers
Protein Works groups products into bundles by training goal, and the pricing reflects that: you pay less than you would buying the same items individually. Two worth knowing about:
One Month Weight Loss Pack
A 30-day supply of meal shakes plus a free supplement, from €74.99. A solid option if you're committing to a structured plan and want the free supplement included without paying extra.
Savoury SuperMeals Bundle
A nutrient-dense meal selection plus a free meal jar, from €54.99. Useful for anyone who wants variety without buying full-price individual products.
Head to the bundle or package deals section on the Protein Works website to see the full range grouped by goal.
Free Delivery on Orders Over €70
Standard delivery costs €5.49 on orders under €70. Hit that threshold and delivery is free. If you're already spending close to €70, it's worth checking whether adding one more item brings you over, particularly if a single product costs less than the delivery fee.
For urgent orders, Next Day Delivery is available. Orders placed before noon on Sunday can arrive on Monday.
Check your basket total before completing your order. If you're a few euro short of €70, the bundles section is a good place to look for something useful to add.
Student and Youth Discounts
Protein Works runs year-round discounts for students and younger shoppers through a few different programmes:
UNiDAYS and Student Beans
-
Student discount via UNiDAYS, available all year to verified students
-
Student discount via Student Beans, also available year-round to verified students
Both programmes run continuously, which makes them worth setting up if you qualify. Verification is handled through the relevant platform before you shop.
Youth Discount
- 16–25 and Apprentice discount, available through the Youth Discount platform for eligible members
If you're in the 16–25 age bracket or an apprentice, register through Youth Discount and connect it to your Protein Works account before checkout.
Save €10 With the Referral Scheme
Protein Works runs a referral programme that benefits both sides. If a friend refers you, you get €10 off your first order. If you refer a friend, you receive €10 credit once they place their first order.
It's a straightforward scheme: no tiers, no minimum spend mentioned for the credit itself. If you're new to the brand, it's worth asking a friend who already shops there to share their referral link before you place your first order.
Share your own referral link as soon as you sign up. The credit lands automatically once your friend completes their first purchase.
The Money Back Guarantee and Returns Policy
Protein Works offers a Money Back Guarantee that includes a flavour exchange. If you genuinely don't like the taste of a product, you can swap it. This is limited to once per order and once per 365 days per customer, so it's a safety net rather than an open-ended return policy, but it does reduce the risk of trying something new.
For standard returns, you have 90 days to notify Protein Works and up to 180 days to physically return the item. Refunds are processed within 48 hours of the return arriving at their HQ. To start a return, contact the help section on the Protein Works website to get the return authorised first.
If you're trying a new flavour or product for the first time, the Money Back Guarantee means there's a genuine fallback if it doesn't work out.
