What is cashback and how does it work?

What is cashback?

Cashback means exactly what it says: you get part of what you spend at an online shop back. It isn't a discount up front, but money you get back afterward on a purchase you were going to make anyway.

At Cashbackie it works like this: we are an affiliate partner of the shops on our site. When you shop through our link, the shop pays us a commission, and we give a large part of it back to you as cashback.

How does cashback work in 3 steps?

1. Create a free account with Cashbackie.
2. Click through on our site to the shop where you want to buy.
3. Pay as you normally would. The cashback then appears in your dashboard and is paid into your bank account once the shop has approved it.

What does cashback cost me?

Nothing. You pay exactly the same price in the shop as you otherwise would: the cashback comes out of the commission the shop pays us, not out of your pocket. An account is free and there is no subscription.

How much cashback can I earn?

That differs from shop to shop: sometimes a fixed amount per purchase, sometimes a percentage of your order. You will always find the exact rate on the shop page. On large purchases (electronics, travel, insurance) the cashback can add up.

Is cashback safe?

Yes. Cashbackie doesn't sell anything itself and never asks for your payment details: you pay the shop in the usual way. We store your information encrypted and don't use tracking that can be traced back to you as a person. Read more in our privacy notice.
