Monday Magic - Shopping Reward Apps

It's Monday. Let's make something happen.

Frankly, I should have shared these apps before December, but, better late than never, I guess.

One of my daughters and one of my granddaughters are in contention for Reward Points Queen. They both actually earn quite a bit of cash and products because of their merchant reward apps.

Most of us know about getting digital credits for taking a slight delay on Amazon deliveries, but there are so many more rewards that can be claimed.

PAYPAL HONEY

If you use PayPal, you need to sign up for PayPal  Honey. It will help you find cash back offers and coupon codes while you browse online. You can add this shopping extension to your browser. It will automatically search for any rewards or discounts and present them when you check out with PayPal.


SLICKDEALS

If you don't use PayPal, you might be interested in SlickDeals, a community-driven platform where users find, post, and vote on discounts, coupons, and freebies from across the web, with top deals promoted to the "Frontpage" by community votes and expert verification.

The site earns money through affiliate links, getting a commission when users purchase through links posted on the platform, and also features sponsored content. Users benefit from crowdsourced validation, forums, deal alerts, and browser extensions that help them find great savings. 


IBOTTA

Ibotta has been around a long time. I can't remember how many years ago I put the app on my phone. If you shop for anything, you should get the Ibotta app. Reward points equal cash.

I know someone who regularly gets $50. a month because she's in the Ibotta habit. It's second nature after a while. It's easy  like 1, 2, 3.

1 - Add offers. Add your cash back offers to Your list by tapping (+). You can see your Ibotta offer list in the app before you head to the store.

2 - Submit your receipt. After shopping for your items in-store, head to the retailer page in the app and tap Submit receipt to earn your cash back.

3 - Withdraw earnings. Link a bank account or choose a gift card to withdraw earnings when you reach $20.

FETCH REWARDS

FetchRewards works like Ibotta. You take photos of any shopping receipt (or link accounts for e-receipts) to earn points, which you redeem for free gift cards to your favorite stores.

You get bonus points for buying specific partner brands or completing offers; it's a simple, free app turning everyday spending into rewards without needing specific coupons. 


Of the apps I've listed, I've only used Ibotta, but I'm going to try PayPal Honey since I do most of my shopping online. Maybe 1 or more of these would work for you. Just be sure to read the information about eacy including Terms of Service so you can make an informed decision.

If you're not taking advantage of these opportunities, maybe you should start.
