What ShopBack does
ShopBack is a cashback platform that returns real money to shoppers when they buy online, book trips or play games through partner brands. It is aimed at everyday online shoppers who want money back on purchases they already make, instead of points or credits. The service runs as a browser extension that tracks cashback automatically, alongside a mobile app that adds limited time shopping quests for extra rewards. Partner stores show their own cashback rates, which change over time, and earnings can be withdrawn to PayPal as cash. Joining ShopBack and adding the Chrome extension are both free, and the site lists no paid tiers for members.
