Ratings and Reviews
Save, save, save
I’ve used this app for years and have saved over $1200 through online shopping. It was for items I would have bought regardless of any discount or return. The amount given on purchases is controlled by the vendor not this app. It’s free money and I say, save, save, save!
Developer Response ,
Thanks for the love!
Sounds like a good idea, but it’s a horrible program and worse app
I switched to the app thinking the website was just the issue. Turns out the app is just as bad as the website, maybe worse. This program is horrible. I’m planning to try and get the minimum transfer amount, then I will close my account. There is no search function on the app or website so you have to scroll for pages to find items. The app resets and scrolls back to the top of a page when you are scrolling, causing you to start all over. The e-receipt function doesn’t accept any of my receipts (goodbye any rewards for pick up orders). The in store receipt function won’t allow any PDFs from files, I have to use the photo option. It’s clunky and just takes way too long to either be rejected or earn a few cents.
Save yourself time and just skip this company completely. There are good receipt reward programs worth the hassle, this is not one of them.
Don’t do any surveys
On the website, they advertise and ask you to do all these surveys for different amounts of money, I go through them and take 5 to 10 minutes doing each one and then after that, it tells me I’m not qualified for it depending upon whatever my answers are and then gives me no credit and tells me another one that it recommends for me, then does the same thing for the recommended one. I like the program, but the surveys are making me absolutely irate, I’ve wasted two hours of my life trying to find one survey that would give me even a dollar. So the program is fine, but the surveys are worthless. I feel like I’ve been violated with how much of my personal information I’ve put in there and then not gotten credit for anything.
