The Cashback Crew: Rewards & Receipt Apps I Actually Use
14
items I started dabbling in the cashback game with apps, websites and credit cards back in 2015 and got a little more serious about it in 2020. It's not something you can retire on, but it adds up. Since I've started, I've earned over $16,000 in cash back ...
More of a “digital-life” play: earn points (for searching, shopping, activities) that can turn into gift cards or other perks.
⭐FAVORITE: Microsoft Rewards
Probably one of the “big names”: before shopping you pick offers in the app, then upload your receipt afterward to get cash back (works for groceries, retail, etc.). Great for regular shoppers chasing rebates. Download and enter code iffhaop to earn ...
⭐FAVORITE: Ibotta
Another receipt-upload app that pays out (gift cards or cash) for storing receipts. Handy for receipts you might otherwise toss.
⭐FAVORITE: Receipt Pal
Upload any receipt (from just about anywhere) and get instant cashback. No need to hunt down special offers — simple and straightforward.
CoinOut
Snap photos of your grocery (or other) receipts to earn points that convert to gift cards or cash — especially rewarding for buying from their partner brands. Download and enter code YP5HD to earn a special bonus when you upload your first receipt.
Fetch
One of the lesser-known rebate apps in this space; good to have it in the rotation in case you occasionally snag a deal they support.
Frisbee
More than just receipts: this one also pays for tasks like surveys, watching videos, maybe playing around a bit, alongside rebate/receipt-upload options.
Inbox Dollars
A rewards program for Purina pet purchases that lets you earn points toward perks and discounts. A simple way to get something back while taking good care of the animals who already run your house.
myPurina App
A catch-all rewards app: get paid (often via PayPal) for sharing data, shopping, or taking surveys. A nice “set-it-and-forget-it” way to squeeze a little extra cash. Download and enter code EBMVQ to earn a special bonus when you upload your first rec...
Pogo
Gamifies receipt scanning: earn “coins” (or cash/gift cards) for shopping receipts — and sometimes fun bonus spins or sweepstakes if you like a little gamble. Download and enter code skol9943 to earn a special bonus when you upload your first receipt...
Receipt Hog
Similar mindset: collect receipts for rewards. (You already know it — good “house-keeping” for receipts you’d throw out anyway.) Download and enter code JILLP48KQ to earn a special bonus when you upload your first receipt.
ReceiptJar
Great for gas, dining out, and other non-grocery spending. Helps when you don’t just want to save on groceries but on everyday expenses like fuel. Download and enter code JILL23229 to get 15¢ per gallon extra cash back on your first gas fill-up and 1...
Upside
Good for gas or convenience-store receipts — a small rebate here and there can add up. My husband and I also like there pizza and get rewards on that, too. Download and enter code Jill6P4487 to earn a special bonus when you upload your first receipt.
Casey's Rewards
Especially neat if you think ahead (e.g. college savings or long-term rewards). Helps you earn cashback “in the background” on everyday purchases and funnel savings toward future goals.
