I would like to purchase Turbotax deluxe desktop version, and I have an offer for a discount on turbotax purchases through Fidelity. I click on the link on the turbotax page which shows the fidelity discount and says "get exclusive discount on turbotax products" but I can't find any way to purchase and download the deluxe desktop. The website seems to want to keep me locked into using the website version which I don't want to do. It is prompting me to answer questions to steer me toward website filing which I do not want to do, and I can't find any way out of the loop despite trying again and again. This is easily the most confusing and frustrating online purchase experience I've ever had in my life and I can't figure out why Intuit doesn't simply present a simple interface for purchasing their products but tries to push you into using the website for everything with no other options.
I did find a separate page where I can download turbotax deluxe, but that is not the page I am taken to when I click on the link from fidelity, so if I purchase there I'd lose my discount. Is there any way that I can get to a desktop download option from the fidelity links, so that I can take advantage of the discount, or is this impossible?
Thanks for your help

You have to access the TurboTax discount from the Fidelity website.
I did. I am clicking a link from my fidelity account labeled "start filing and save 30%" that takes me to turbotax, whereupon I land on a webpage with a "get started" button.
I have the same issue, tried several times starting at the fidelity page but I cannot find a way to purchase the desktop version with the discount. Following this thread.
You have to get the Fidelity by starting on this page. If you are not already logged into Fidelity it will give you a log in box.
https://www.fidelity.com/accounts-trade/turbotax-discount
That will give you the page for Online Turbo Tax.
To get the Desktop program…..
Click the green Start filing with TurboTax and save 25% button (or whatever percent you get)
It brings up the Fidelity Save 25% Get Started page
Leave that page and tab open
Then in another browser tab go to the Turbo Tax Desktop page here
