Upside: Cash Back - Gas & Food Positive Reviews

Poor Customer ServiceThere were 2 offers at the same station. However, the LOWER offer (4 cents) was visible ONLY if I zoomed in on the map while the HIGHER offer (8 cents) was visible in a plain search. This is a deceptive practice. I only realized this because when I saw the payout it was much lower than the offer. So I went back to the app to make sure and the 8 cent offer was still there. However, there was also a hidden offer at the same station only visible if you zoomed in as far as possible on the map. If that’s not clear then imagine if I put up a large sign that says “8 cents back on every gallon!” Then you fill your tank only to realize the next day that you only received 4 cents back. You come back to check the sign and indeed it says 8 cents. However, when you closely inspect it you see a tiny little sign that says 4 cents back—two offers at the same station, one plainly visible and another hidden from view. This is EXACTLY what happened with the app and it’s deceptive. However, I wasn’t even paid 4 cents, it was 3 cents. This is extremely deceptive. When I contacted customer service about it they blew me off and told me that the payment (of 3 cents) was made and if I had additional questions go to the FAQ page. Nice..Version: 4.79

Saves You Money, But Very Frustrating AppIt does what it says it does. I’ve saved $40 on gas so far, and this app is free. So that’s very nice. But it’s a very frustrating app to use. The app works fine until it’s time to actually prove to it that you filled up at the gas station with the offer you “claimed”. The app instructs you to tap a button that doesn’t exist on the screen in order to “arrive” at the gas station. So I looked it up online and people say you have to log out and log back in. Then it prompts you with the option to “upload receipt” which is what I do. But now the scanning technology which scans your receipt on the app doesn’t work anymore! So I have to upload a pic instead. Logging out and logging back in after you’ve claimed your offer is what makes it eventually work, but not every time. Sometimes I have to wait a few hours after I’ve completed the transaction before logging out and logging back in will prompt the option to “upload receipt”, which appears to be the only way I can prove to Upside I completed the transaction. It always works eventually, and I’ve saved $40 so far so that really is nice, but the app is buggy and has these issues. I really hope they fix it, it would be a dream to have this app finally just be smooth throughout the whole experience. But as of now it is a chore, they do make you work a bit for the savings..Version: 7.7

Potential problems using Apple IDFirst of all, I really like the Upside app. I recommend it to others. I’ve maybe earned about $20 so far using it, but have also lost out on about $10 because I can’t get back into the app using my Apple ID to log in. It’s not really the apps fault, but only rated 4 stars because of this circumstance. Here is what happened… I initially created a login with my email address and a strong password and everything was fine for 9 months maybe. Then I started to have to enter my password every time I accessed the app. Apple’s password manager wouldn’t work. I became frustrated finding where I had recorded the password and entering it manually every time I wanted to use the app so I logged out of the app and created. New account using my Apple ID to log in. After three uses and accumulating about $10 in rebates, I would get an error when trying to log in using the Apple ID. Upside support isn’t able to help because they don’t get passed the actual email address Apple uses and passes to the app (I know I’m probably not explaining it right). I tried deleting an reinstalling the app, changing my Apple ID password, but I still get the same error. As far as i know, the account using the Apple ID is gone for good and I no longer can use Apple ID to login to the app at all. Now I’m using Google to log in. Hopefully I don’t encounter something similar with that ID..Version: 8.11

Poor ManagementLet me state that I have used Upside for about 2 years straight. And there’s a few negative points I want to make; - Most of the gas stations are in poor, not so safe areas. - Upside will some times ask for a picture of a receipt. - Gas stations in poor areas usually only print receipts inside. - Now you have to go inside and possibly wait in line for just a receipt. - And this is the worst; After everything you’ve done, you 9/10 will get handed a receipt that says you paid in cash. I’ve even had an incident where the guy literally told me he can’t print any receipts. I just want to know why Upside doesn’t have someone verifying we can even get receipts. You put my family’s safety on the line with these sketchy stations, and then I’m required to jump through hoops to “possibly” get cash back that I was offered. When something goes wrong (like printers not working, system down, etc.), the customer gets the poopy end of the stick. Upside puts more into begging customers for 5 star reviews, than they do insuring the safety and efficiency of their own system. If this doesn’t change, and I keep getting sent to sketchy places that can’t print receipts…. well I won’t be waisting my time anymore. My families lives are worth more that $1.00 cash back. I don’t need your article about why I didn’t earn cash either, it’s not my fault, it’s y’all’s 😊 I don’t have a personal receipt printer, sorry.Version: 8.22

Great AppI love Upside! I get cash back on most of my gas purchases, and it does add up - not like they claim in the commercial but still. They also have cash back inside gas stations and other stores. It’s simple to use and doesn’t cost me anything. I gave it 4 stars only because half the time (lately), the app doesn’t select a payment method, and I end up having to upload a receipt. I wouldn’t normally have a problem with that except one of the gas stations I go to is chronically out of paper and the receipts don’t print. I get gas on my way to work in the mornings and don’t have time to run in and wait for them to print a receipt. I expect if it’s gonna tell me it will print a receipt, that I should get a receipt. While that is not Upside’s fault, it could be avoided if the app selected a card each and every time so that I didn’t have to upload a receipt. The other issue I’ve had is that when it does select a payment method, it usually selects my backup method. I go in and manually change it to my other card, but if I have to switch apps, it goes back to the former payment method it selected instead of the one that I selected. I have not been awarded cashback because of that. However, that didn’t only happen once because now I’m diligent in making sure that the correct payment method is showing before I complete the transaction..Version: 8.29

Love the new name upgraded!I love the app! Had it ever since 2018 don’t regret it at all whatsoevr 🤷🏾‍♀️ it’s free money building up for me! I only given it a 4 ⭐️ outta 5 bc I can’t update my email address. I contacted support & was told atm we r not updating email addresses but I can update anything else 🙄🫤 thts super annoying when apps do this. I love to c my history etc since I had it since 2018 & for me to jst deactivate & start ovr baffles me bc I don’t like starting ovr when I had this app long enough. I understand if I forgot my login info which tht doesn’t happens bc u can always click on “forgot password” link. So now I still have to use my old email for this particular app since I can’t update my email but hopefully which am wishing in the near future tht it changes bc y can’t we loyal customers change/update email address. Esp now since they’re making major changes to the app but we Upside customers can’t update ours 🤦🏾‍♀️🙄 I don’t like tht! But overall love the app love the new name but w/all these new updates the app now loss up slower when am at locations trying to checkin/lid up receipts. Like whts rlly up w/tht! Unless it’s the 5G bc I don’t have a phone tht already comes w/ 5G all I did was update my SIM card not my iPhone yet but unfortunately I will soon. B even when am at home using my food WiFi the GetUpside/Upside app still loads up slower..Version: 5.4.1

Deceiving (edited)I chose to fill up my Jeep at a Casey’s on June 9th. The Walmart gas station was about $.40/gal cheaper, but Upside showed Casey’s having an offer of something around $.40/gal cash back (I can’t remember the exact amounts, but it was close to this). I put 17 gallons in my Jeep. Today, on June 15th, 6 days later, Upside finally processed the offer. Except it was processed at Casey’s current offer of $.06/gal cash back. The only reason I chose Casey’s over Walmart with that price difference was for the cash back because it made it worth it. What an absolute scam that was. When we use this app it makes us scan our receipt to include the time and date of the purchase. I would expect part of that to mean we are locked in at the offer that was valid at the time of our purchase. When I tried to find a way to contact Upside about this, all I found was the useless FAQ section that never actually answers the question. I even tried chatting with the bot that answers automatically and the bot didn’t have an answer either. This was only my second time using this app and it may be my last if this is how it deceives you. Especially with no customer service. EDIT I was finally able to reach customer service. After a few emails back and forth, they agreed to fix my issue and the proper amount was added to my account..Version: 5.6

Worth it!In 2 years and 3 months, I have gotten $519 cask back. We travel the country pulling a THOW with a diesel truck and Upside participating gas stations have been found at about 90% of our stops and along our routes. We’ve also used Upside at some restaurants and grocery stores with 98% success. Had one issue where a restaurant used online receipts and it didn’t have all of the info Upside requires to process the receipt properly. So make sure restaurant uses in-store receipts or your charge is automatically looked up by Upside in the restaurant’s system (blue pentagon symbol with a lightning bolt in it on the opportunity listing in the app). There are restrictions/limitations with each kind of cash back opportunity, but they are easily found in the app for each establishment for you to read and assess for yourself if the opportunity is worth it or not. It’s a free app so it’s not like you are losing money if the opportunity isn’t right for you. Using the establishments where Upside automatically finds your charge makes this the most user friendly, free cash back app I have ever used and fortunately the number of establishments where that occurs has increased dramatically in the 2 years I have been using it. Totally worth the effort!.Version: 7.7

Excellent Customer Service from personal experienceIt’s like a free fill up every now and then. Works great ! Now a bit of warning from personal experience. When having to upload receipts, just upload it and click attach receipt then a few days later you get the cash back without any issues. Where i went wrong was when I decided to review my receipts after the upload. This is where I checked boxes to questions if the receipt had time, location, address, etc. I checked some boxes but couldn’t check the box about time because my receipt didn’t have time on it and because of that I didn’t get cash back for that receipt. It created a issue of receipt not matched. But if you just upload the receipt then click attach receipt, EVERYTHING works out perfectly. Don’t try to do more than that like I did and then caused more headaches for myself blaming the software or the company for the issues when it was my fault from the beginning….oops my bad! (I say excellent customer service from personal experience because through out the whole time of trying to figure out my issues, the customer service team was very helpful, kind, and courtesy to me).Version: 7.3

Almost perfect. Great value.I’ve been using Upside for a few months now. I started using it for gas and that’s a really good deal. Then when I bought my electric car, I didn’t need the gas feature anymore. Now I use Upside for the great deals at restaurants. There’s some that pay really high percentage back. My only reservation with giving it five stars is that sometimes the deals are hard to find on the map. There should be a preference for whether you want to search for gas or restaurants. Most of the time Upside is suggesting gas stations when I don’t need that option anymore. When I tap on the map, I want to look for restaurants by default. Another glitch that sometimes happens is I see a deal on the map for cashback at a restaurant and then when I get to the restaurant sometimes it has disappeared. A pinch and zoom on the map to look for it and it’s nowhere to be found. Sometimes it comes back later after I’ve left the restaurant. That’s happened at least once. Sometimes restaurants will discontinue offering cash back through Upside. But there are some restaurants that offer it consistently every single week. So this app is almost perfect with a few fixes. I’ve earned at least $100 back already. Pretty amazing! More places should offer deals with Upside..Version: 6.8

Looks like it’s stopped paying... again 🙄I’ve been using this app almost daily since February. I drive almost 200 miles a day so I buy a lot of gas and always use this app when I do so. For the most part it works great. I get gas and usually within a day I’ve got my reward. However, sometimes the payments stop coming. They will back up for days on end. Usually when this happens I’ll eventually get some lame excuse on why my payment cannot be processed. I’ve noticed this problem has gotten worse since they’ve added more stations where you “check in” instead of uploading your receipt. Right now it’s Aug. 22. I have three “processing” transactions from the 20th, 19th, and 17th. And before a reply comes to this review, I want to say that whenever I claim a deal, I sync the GetUpside map to my phone map and have it direct me to the exact station that is supposed to be the one I’ve claimed according to your own app. I check in and select my card as soon as I arrive before I pump my fuel. And I only have one card on file. This is getting frustrating and I hope the developers fix whatever is going on. I’m starting to lose faith in this app..Version: 4.58

Cheap and slowThey charge you a whole dollar to cash out to PayPal unless you are cashing out $15 or more or getting a gift card. Then when you do cash out they give to a notification that states it will take 24-48 hours to transfer your money to PayPal. First of all I know it doesn’t cost them a dollar to cash out small amounts. They say they’re passing SOME of that cost on to us, so they would have us believe that it costs them more than a dollar to transfer funds. Second, if they’re going to charge a whole dollar to transfer to PayPal then they could at least do it quicker than 24-48 hours after you cash out. PayPal only takes 2% and they transfer immediately (30 minutes tops). Lastly, this app is full of bugs. The first time I claimed an offer the app told me I had 4 hours to upload a receipt from the gas station I selected. Once I got to the gas station and pumped my gas the app suddenly crashed and logged me out. I’ve had this app for months before I actually used it and it had never logged me out before. When I tried to log back in it told me my info was incorrect. So now I had to play the log in game. Once I finally got logged back on I uploaded my receipt and the app told me I should see what my cash back would be in 24-48 hours. Then it told me 3 different discount amounts that I would be getting. This app needs A LOT of work..Version: 4.23

Useful…for some gas stationsI’ve been using Upside for quite a few years now. Biggest problem I have is finding gas stations that actually participate. One thing they don’t mention is it only works at “certain” gas stations. They make it sound like you can get cash back at every gas station. You could be driving on the interstate and there might be one or two gas stations within 40 miles that are on Upside, but to get to them, you have to exit and drive 10 miles off the interstate to get to one of them. Literally more often than not, the gas prices on Upside are wrong. You’ll drive passed 3-4 gas stations that are $3.49/Gal. and not on Upside. Then you finally get to the one gas station Upside “does” have a cash back offer on that’s supposed to be $3.45 plus a $0.10/Gal. cash back offer only to find out when you get there, it’s $3.65 plus a $0.10/Gal. cash back offer. So you might as well have filled-up at one of the gas stations that weren’t on Upside. Also, the radio commercials we’ve all heard about getting $200+ cash back quickly is bull. I drive a lot for work and over the course of ~5 years, I’ve made maybe $200...maybe. Still, that is money back in your pocket, but it’s not as good as they make it out to be..Version: 8.20

Hopeful but still some glitches but better.Update, I have since given this a second chance. It has paid me on several transactions. However, the last two offers claimed that I would receive a 20 cent a gallon bonus. That didn’t happen on the first transaction and the second transaction is pending, we’ll see. I drive a lot and thought that getting cash back would be beneficial. I filled up twice in two days. I followed the directions and the app history says both are processing. One was six days ago and the other was four days ago. The app states that normally the cash back will post in four days. I even received a email from the app stating that it was taking longer than expected. However the app also states that after ten days it will be impossible to process the payment. Needless to say, my first experiences with this app has been a bit disappointing. Update, I never received confirmation that I bought fuel on my first two transactions. I contacted the app help line. Then I received two emails stating that I would not get credit for ether transaction. I will be deleting this app and going back to GasBuddy. I consider this a case of classic bait and switch. Stay away unless you want to jump through hoops..Version: 5.0

I shared this app with everyone, unfortunately!The offer I clicked on and claimed was that I will receive .23 cash back on fuel at BP gas station so I went and filled up. After submitting my receipt for the gas I went into the store and made a purchase as well which was also cash back but your supposed to submit both receipts at the same time so that has caused an issue I’m not sure how to resolve because now it looks like I’ve submitted 2 receipts for gas and one for in store in which I didn’t mean to do but hopefully they will see it’s the same gas receipt…. Surely!!! Back to my .23 cent cash back I thought I was getting… HUGE LIE! It shows after submitting the receipts, I’m only getting 10 cents back per gallon so where I thought I was getting such a good deal on gas I did NOT! You do not get the offer you actually claim and then in extremely light print it says if you don’t receive your cash back within 10 days you will not receive it. Most receive theirs in 3-4 days. It’s been 6 days and I’ve received nothing so far so it’s not looking good for me to even get the the 10 cents much less the 23 cents offer I actually claimed. So this app is false information and you don’t know what you’ll receive IF ANYTHING AT ALL!!!! 😡.Version: 8.28

Used to be good til it stopped working! UpdatedJust like the title says. It was good at first but hasn’t worked since October of last year. They keep doing updates but failing to fix the issue of their instant check in. There is no other way to upload a receipt so since November the app has failed to work. Wish they would at least allow us to upload a receipt manually since the instant check in doesn’t work. So it’s a pointless app now. Waste of space on my phone. Too bad. —-updated—- Okay so they updated FINALLY and digital purchases are able to print a receipt and upload - only took them 8 months - but they refused to honor the credit card statements I sent them - at the request of their customer service - from Oct 2020 to May 2021. I was initially told that even the old receipts would be honored if I sent the credit card statements but then when I did send them they said it’s too late - those were old purchases. Which was EXACTLY why I sent them (& was told to send them). Clearly their customer service people aren’t communicating properly to public OR within their own org. So their customer service is less than poor but when the automated app works as it should - at least it works as it should..Version: 4.88

Used to love this app but not anymoreThis used to be an amazing app. I was saving so much money on gas and the process was flawless. However, they implemented the “check in” process whereby you skip taking a picture of your receipt and the cash back is supposed to be verified based on the credit card you have on file being used at the pump once you hit check in. Nope!!! It has never worked for me. EVERY single time I have to email the company because I don’t get the gas credit. This is also happening to my referrals. Which means I’m not getting my referral credits. This app needs to eliminate the “check in” process and go back to taking a picture of the receipt for verification. There was NEVER an issue with that method. I’m seriously considering deleting this app because I'm buying gas at stations which have higher prices, but will be lower with the credit, however if I’m not getting the credit then I’m better off getting my gas at stations with cheaper gas prices, no app needed!!!! Horrible customer service too! When I emailed them it took me a month of emailing back and forth to get the credit from just once transaction..Version: 4.52

Zero Cash Back coming through!!I switched from Gas Buddy to Upside because it potentially had better deals. I made the switch and started earning cash back in my account which is great…..until I tried to cash out. I haven’t received a dollar of my cash back. I continued to use the app with NONE of the cash back showing up in my account. I started a new profile with another email and NONE of my cash back is showing up and neither is my initial cash out. Not to mention you took grocery stores off the app too. I WANT MY CASH BACK! I am an Uber driver and have to fill up multiple times a week. I could’ve used Gas Buddy that just gives me the discount on the spot instead of waiting for the cash back to process and then having to cash out and wait for money that never comes. This app started great but turned out to be terrible considering I am getting none of the discount that I could’ve already gotten somewhere else with so many opportunities wasted on these tank fillups. You should also have customer support to call. Not just a bot chat app. 💬 Please fix what has potential to be a good app..Version: 7.1

Only a Couple Problems, Otherwise AmazingI would give this five stars but there are a couple things that are annoying that I just wanted to bring to the attention of the developers. As of a few months ago, my Google login seems to only be good for a few days before I am required to sign in again to the app. So basically, every time I want to fill my car up about once every 4 to 7 days, I have to sign in with my Google credentials. It used to not be like this and it’s annoying that I have to do that now. The only other thing that bugs me a bit is that (just before filling up the tank) the list of previously used credit cards are extremely small and it is easy to accidentally click on the wrong credit card. I have my work card and I have a few personal cards that I use. If I accidentally clicked on the wrong card, then I have to use that card or forfeit the claim. For that matter, I also wish that I could edit the list of cards and or just assign names to them such as work, Capitals One, or Chase, etc. The list currently just shows numbers and whether it is Visa or Mastercard and it is sometimes hard to figure out among all my Visas..Version: 4.89

Just read and followed directions….I had been frustrated the past couple of weeks when my Upside app wouldn’t load so I took to reading the reviews to see if anyone else had experienced similar. Read a few replies from their customer service to uninstall and reinstall the app and lo and behold it worked! Now my app loads up fine and I’m able to see all my past money earned. ($40) Very happy! I also never thanked you guys for extending to my city! (So thanks!!!) After hearing about it on the radio I ended up waiting a whole year before they came. Ecstatic it finally did! Saving on gas these days is more important now than ever, a lot of people could benefit if they only knew about it. Be patient, you will get your money! The app works better now than it did before. Now it just recognizes the card I use when I check in at the gas station I want to use. No more sending pictures of receipts! I love it! I will note that if a live gas price doesn’t match the one listed in the app you have to update it on the app. If you don’t you - you will likely lose your cash back! Very important!.Version: 5.7

When it works!?! 2.5 StarsWhen it works it’s great and easy to use, but that’s only about 1 in 5 purchases (I’ve only used it a gas stations so far). The rest of the time I get emails saying my cash back couldn’t be processed because they can’t find record of the transaction. I missed out on a handful of cash backs, before I learned to print and keep a receipt for each transaction so I can respond to the rejection email with a picture of the receipt. I get gas 2-3 times a week so it’s a bit of a hassle and waste of paper. They will usually process the cash back once I send them a copy of the receipt (not sure why they don’t just let you upload it from the start to save time)…but even then it’s done outside the app history so it’s hard to tell if they really do it and it’s usually after you’ve already waited about 3 weeks. I’ve also had one transaction that I’ve emailed them about 6 different times over the last 2 weeks and have yet to get any response to any of the emails. I’d like to give this more stars because the cash back is great, but there is too much extra work done on my part just to make each transaction process when the app has the ability to make it easy if it worked properly..Version: 4.91

Lov loveAbsolutely love this app it has saved me money at gas and restaurants we had a huge or would’ve had a huge bill at my son’s birthday party at a restaurant but we split it into a couple of bills and we saved money… The gas station and savings are great in my house sometimes it’s only two or three cents sometimes it’s $.50 it’s really awesome and when Stop & Shop has a deal and I use my Stop & Shop card I get my gas points plus upsides cash back which is great that’s how I recommend doing itGet your gas from Stop & Shop and use the gas points I also only have one complaint and that is I haven’t been able to get on the app for a few days I don’t know I tried to update it but it doesn’t need an update so I don’t know if they’re just doing bug worker maintenance work but I don’t wanna uninstall the app because I don’t remember all my information so I’m hoping they can fix this soon problem since I got it and I got it when it first came out so this has been really good I’ve saved over $200 since I got it so hopefully they fix the bug and I can actually get into the app this week.Version: 5.7

Wording errorSo the app is pretty much straight forward and fairly easy to use. The first time I used it I didn’t have any trouble but today, my second attempt, I got an email saying that my offer didn’t go through and started looking closer. Okay, so on the app it clearly says “tap check in once you make your purchase”; this direction would imply you to “check in” once the transaction has been completed…since now you’ve made your purchase. However, the email states ,in its troubleshoot list, that you must “claim your offer before you pay.” Since that is the case, that particular phrasing needs to be used in the app to give better understanding to the apps users. My first use I didn’t really understand and accidentally checked in twice once before and after my purchase which explains why it went through. Slightly annoyed but I’ll know better in the future. So with that the only other complaint is the limited gas stations listed for offers. I haven’t tried to claim any of the cash back; hopefully that’s a smooth process. I liked that you don’t have to give a bunch of info to get started though which is a plus. Gave three stars, hopefully things improve in the next update..Version: 4.91

Good app but chance to be greatThe app has been fantastic and I had given it 5 stars in the past but ever since the update a few months ago where the app allowed location check in via GPS at a station and no upload of receipt and they search for your card number in a transaction with that station it hasn’t worked in those instances and no money back is earned and have to weeks later submit the receipt to the support team. It still works flawlessly and quickly if you do it the old way of uploading a receipt. Only issue is when you check in at a station that does it that way you have to do it that way and no option to upload receipt is ever given. So for now I try to avoid stations that use the check in option but point is I shouldn’t have to avoid those and unfortunately those stations tend to be the higher cash back amounts. If the team fixes this issue or at least allow the user to choose the way they would like to do it (either check in or upload receipt) regardless if the station is a check in station, the app would be back to 5 stars. Otherwise stick with the non check in stations and you will be ok and the app will work good for you..Version: 4.46

Issues and no response from emailI got a new phone early last week, and transferred all my info and apps to the new phone. I was not surprised to be logged out when i went to check my upside account. I tried to log in with my email, it told me that i used facebook. So i logged on to it with facebook, and it told me i used email. It went back and forth like that a few times. So i deleted the app, made sure that the app AND my phone were on the latest version, reinstalled it, and still the same issue. I just checked it again today after waiting 2 days and its still giving me issues. I sent an email out days ago and it told me they should get back to me around 24 hours. I gave it days. I have checked all my folder’s including spam but there is no reply. Im about to delete the app entirely. I would just cave and make a new account but i was a little over $8 out of the $10 needed to cash out. Im giving it until the end of the week, it’s Tuesday today, and then I’ll probably just delete my app. If i havent received a response by then i never will. Pretty bummed because i loved this app until this..Version: 7.1

Terrible! Do not download.The app worked fine my first few purchases. Then the app sent offers for the week of Valentine’s Day, offering $2.14 on top of every gas purchase made at that time. I never received payment from those fill ups even though they’re dated during the promo period. Fast forward to the next two times I filled up. I took offers for .20/gl one day and another day took an offer for .34/gl. The payments came back in the form of .04/gl and .17/gl. Sorry but when you search for the best deals and go out of your way to get them, the offer should be reflected correctly. When taking the issues up with “customer service,” I was told the initial Valentine’s Day offer was expired and they had “no way” of looking up the reason they were denied. Absolute joke of an app. If you decide to go with the garbage app I would take screen shots of all the offers you’re claiming and save your receipts, even then it’s your word and proof of purchase against theirs. After all these issues, I had yet again a THIRD purchase of gasoline where I was told I purchased premium and not the regular unleaded and received .08 back instead of .25 a gallon back. Issue was submitted and waiting for a response. DONT GET!.Version: 4.95

Untrustworthy Payout method, but it’s okThis app has had some merit but I don’t trust it’s payout method. If you try to cash out it requires you to log into your bank account in order to complete it. I don’t trust or understand that. It makes no sense why they need my direct log in. All they should need is a routing number and account number. Maybe a card. But not a log in. I will not be using that means to pay out. It does give you the option for pay pal and gift cards. The gift cards are valid but take time to be delivered to your email. I’ve been using this for about 2 years, not super consistently, but have used it for the vast majority of my gas purchases, just to get something back. There are not a whole lot of options in where to get gas or food and earn. And the earning are very small. Not complaining, just stating it’s advertised as something people can earn hundreds from. And I drive A LOT. In total I have racked up a little over $30 in two years. I do drive a small car. And not all my purchases have gone through this. But I have used this app A LOT to only make $30, in two years. And I can’t cash it out the way I want because I don’t trust the method..Version: 6.8

“Not a real receipt” issueBeen using this app for almost a year now. I can tell you that the cents really start to add up over time. Haven’t had any issues until a few months ago when every now and then I wouldn’t receive cash back because of the receipts I’ve submitted not being processed because they deemed it wasn’t a real recipient although all the receipts I’ve submitted were printed at the gas pump and would show the name and address of the gas station I claim, the time, proof of purchase with a debit card, amounts purchased, price per gallon and so on. I keep all of my gas receipts until cash back credit is given in case I have to resubmit it. Not all gas pumps print receipts in the same format but I shouldn’t have to lose out for something beyond my control. Yeahs it’s only a few cents but why participate if you can’t enjoy the perks advertised? I’ve even resubmitted receipts on numerous occasions just to keep getting denied for the same, “It’s not a real receipt” issue and where I live and travel, I don’t see the point of driving 10/15 miles out of my way just to use the “Check In” feature that a select number of gas station have. This should be a feature used all over to prevent this ongoing receipt issue..Version: 4.50
