If you’re interested in signing up to Quicken, whether that’s Simplifi or one of the Classic versions, their Black Friday event is almost always the best time to start a subscription. Here’s a breakdown of when the sale will probably start, how long it will run, what the discounts are likely to be, and which plans are expected to be included.
Black Friday 2025 Sale Start & End Dates
The sale is expected to begin at quicken.com on Wednesday, November 19, 2025, which falls a little more than a week before Thanksgiving. That timing matches the way Quicken has handled their Black Friday sales over the last few years.
The sale should run until Thursday, December 4, 2025, at 11:59 PM PST. That’s three days after Cyber Monday. That window gives you about 16 days to decide, which is longer than most retailers offer.
Typical Discount Levels
Quicken almost always promotes the sale as 50% off any plan. That discount is calculated off the annual price, not the monthly rate. The “monthly” figure they show during the sale is just the annual cost broken down into 12 parts for easy comparison.
Here’s an example from 2024:
-
Quicken Simplifi was offered at $2.99/month (regularly $5.99/month).
-
Quicken Classic was offered at $3.99/month (regularly $7.99/month).
-
Quicken Classic Business & Personal was offered at $5.49/month (regularly $10.99/month).
That means you’d save somewhere between $36 and $72 for the first year, depending on the plan.
Terms and Conditions You Should Know
Every year Quicken puts the same fine print on its Black Friday sale. Based on 2024, here’s what to expect again in 2025:
-
The deal applies only to the first year of your subscription.
-
You must be a new customer. Current subscribers or people renewing won’t get the discount.
-
Subscriptions are billed annually, not monthly.
-
After the first year, your plan will automatically renew at the regular price unless you cancel.
-
The offer cannot be combined with any other promotions.
-
You have to purchase directly from Quicken’s website.
-
Quicken Classic Starter is excluded from the deal.
The biggest thing to keep in mind is that this isn’t a permanent price drop, it’s only for the first year.

Questions & Comments
What version of Quicken will you be picking up this Thanksgiving weekend? Let us know in the comments.
Are there any alternatives for Quicken? I keep paying for the subscription, but there are no big changes to the product. In addition, when the subscription expires, they throw 2 huge ads into the product and make it nearly impossible to see what is going on in the product.
where do I get information on quicken Business to track my rental properties
Is there a 2020 version for sale on black friday? Does such a version exisit?
Hi Bill – Looks like all Quicken products have moved to a subscription model. Apparently that’s way they’ve dropped the year from product names. So no “Quicken Deluxe 2020” for example, looks like it’s just “Quicken Deluxe” going forward.
