Before we dive into cashback apps, make sure you download our app for free (iPhone or Android)! There, you’ll learn more about apps like Ibotta, Checkout 51, Fetch Rewards, as well as see a ton of great deals!
Once you start couponing you quickly realize the best deals are combined with cash back apps. These apps provide cashback or rewards in exchange for receipts showing that you bought a certain item or product. Instead deducting money from your total purchase price, like with a coupon, cashback apps allow you to make a purchase, and then receive cash back once you’ve reached a set minimum amount.
Additionally, the ultimate trick to significant savings is to use cashback apps and other ways of saving money at the same time whenever possible. We’ll go through all the facts to help you pick which cashback apps will work best for you. Get ready to save some money at Target, CVS, Walgreens, and other stores by combining coupons with cashback apps, sales, and store rewards!
Ibotta Cashback App
As one of the most popular cashback App, Ibotta allows you to save money without having to use actual coupons. Inside the Ibotta App, you’ll find a ton of digital offers that will help you save money on groceries and other items that you usually purchase! Even better, if you sign up, you will receive a $10 bonus when you spend $30!
That said, most deals can be reactivated up to three times (once every two days). This means that you can use it once, and then wait a few days before using it again (on multiple transactions for the same product). Some deals can even be redeemed up to three times per receipt.
Please keep in mind that you must pre-select your offers before you shop, and some Ibotta offers cannot be combined with coupons. If your account is dormant for 180 days, they will take $3.99 from your earnings every 30 days until it is active again. Also, note that you have a $20 minimum amount for cash out. Download the Ibotta App now and get started.
Fetch Rewards App
Fetch Rewards App differs from other cashback apps in that you do not have to select any offers before checking out at the store. You can earn points by photographing your receipt or linking your online shopping emails to the app. Bonus points can also be earned for brand-specific products. Connect your Amazon account to earn points on Amazon purchases as well. To sweeten the deal, Fetch is offering 25 bonus points for any receipt uploaded!
Please note that there is no cash-out option with PayPal; you can only cash out for gift cards and with as few as 3,000 points ($3 value). Download the Fetch Rewards App and start saving.

With time, you’ll gain access to “Choose Your Own Offer”, allowing you to apply savings to whatever you like. Also, the offers renew on Thursdays and probably be last.

Thank you for adding that!
am i reading this correct ?
ibotta will take 3.99 from your if account is dormant ?
what happen if i don’t have any money in ibotta ? am i going to have a negative balance ?
According to this, there’s no mention of negative balance. They will deduct the fee if you have funds in an account that has been inactive for 180 days (not from your bank). But they’re not specifying anything about a negative balance in case you decide to reactivate your account at some point. Basically no way to be sure how that would play out based on their FAQ page.
