Cashback or a voucher code: what is the difference?

Cashback or a voucher code

Both save you money, but they work differently. The big difference:

Voucher code Cashback
When Instant discount at checkout Money back after your purchase
Where In the shop's cart First in your Cashbackie account, then in your bank account
How much Fixed amount or a % off % of your purchase or a fixed amount
Cost Free Free

Can you combine the two?

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. With many shops you only get cashback if you don't use a voucher code from elsewhere, or only use codes that are on our site. If you use just any code from the internet, you often lose your cashback.

The golden rule: only use voucher codes you find on the shop page at Cashbackie. They have been checked and still work with cashback.

Which saves the most?

That depends on the offer. Just do the math:

  • A voucher code for 10% off a $100 purchase → you pay $90.
  • 6% cashback on $100 → you pay $100 and get $6 back.

Is there an offer that allows both? Then you benefit twice. Before you pay, always check the latest deals at Cashbackie first.

Tip: before every online purchase, quickly check whether the shop gives cashback at Cashbackie. It takes 10 seconds and puts money in your pocket.
