There's no downside using shopback for online shopping.
Shopback for in-store purchases is annoying and not possible to claim if you don't follow up with another purchase. Only good if you're a repeat customer. I use it for my bakery- shout out to Maison Arnaud.
It's been pretty good for me. Tracks well and they have a wide range of options to earn cashback which is generally quick. Earned close to $6000 cashback so far although those numbers are inflated a bit due to how they previously set up their lotto system.
As with all cashback providers - your mileage will vary and you'll win some and lose some. Don't get sucked in to deals and only buy what you were going to buy without the cashback.
And don't get sucked into the whole one is better than the other. They're all pretty much the same at end of day.
I hate the chrome extension, so intrusive.
Then don't use it?
I mean sure its great it is 'free' money why wouldnt you use it
I used to use CR and TCB only, but signed up to SB after CR died.
After trying out the SB app for a few days, I find that it's trying too hard to make everything a game and it's somewhat complex to work out if you are really maximising everything. But I've already made $10 and 10% off on gift cards for things I was going to buy anyway.
Meanwhile TCB is very simple and seems to have better rates on traditional cashback, so they are still my preferred site.
The instore cashback is a bit misleading since you need to go back to the same store within a certain time period to make use of the cashback earned from the last visit, so at best you're always one cashback behind and at worst the cashback expires.
The app also looks quite cluttered and overcomplicated so I'm less inclined to use it compared to CR and TCB.
Having said that, there have been decent deals and lots of giftcard options.
Yes I love shopback and have had no problems.
