This week my family will be joining Cashback Apps to help supplement our income. I play games and earn money through them and I’m also on Swagbucks but I need to do more to help David out. I know plenty of people who do Apps and see what they earn.
Its time to stop watching and start doing things to help my family out. My friends say Receipt Hog is the easiest App to Earn Cash with so its the first App I plan on joining. If your on Receipt Hog do you have any tips for me?
We will earn coins by snapping a photo of your receipts—from any store that sells groceries, health and beauty items, household goods, and more. You can even upload receipts from other household members to boost your rewards so I’m going to ask my family to save there receipts for my family.
Coins can be redeemed for PayPal cash, a Visa gift card, or Amazon gift card—your choice! You can earn more by extra ways to rack up coins:
- Stay consistent—scanning weekly unlocks bonus coins
- Earn spins for Hog Slots from non‑grocery receipts; prizes range from coins to cash
- Complete short surveys for extra rewards
- Each receipt gives you an entry into monthly drawings
If you use a Amazon account and email, you can link Receipt Hog which will automatically track and credit your online purchases, too.
Click here to download Receipt Hog and earn a special bonus with your first receipt.
2. Best App for Earning Gift Cards: Fetch
Fetch is another super easy way to rack up rewards. When scanning grocery receipts, you’ll earn at least 25 points and even more if you’ve purchased featured products or taken advantage of weekly special offers. You can also connect your Amazon account and email to earn points automatically from online purchases. Fetch now has in-app popular mobile game for more points.
Fetch doesn’t offer direct cash payouts, their wide selection of gift cards—from retailers like Amazon, Target, and restaurants—makes it just as valuable because I will use these Gift Cards as Gifts during the year and also as Christmas Stocking Stuffers.

They too offer a browser-based cash back extension that helps users earn rewards across thousands of additional participating retailers.

7. Shopkick
Shopkick is among the best rewards apps because it lets you earn money by performing tasks, rather than just spending money. Many of these tasks are easy to do. You earn points or “kicks” with easy tasks like walking into stores, scanning barcodes for specific products, shopping with a linked card, and shopping online. Once you’ve earned enough points, you can cash out for gift cards. Use code DSFIVE to earn 1,250 free kicks — a cool $5.

11. RebatesMe
The newer-to-the-scene app is undercutting many of its peers by offering robust daily cash-back offers along with select “double cash-back” offers on many of its 4,000 popular retailer partners. Their Cash Back Protection Program is a neat feature, where, if you make a purchase through RebatesMe and don’t get credited (an industry-wide issue because of the complexity of tracking), they’ll credit you for purchases up to $1,000.

12. TopCashBack
I wanted to let you know they operate on a unique business model compared to other apps according to their website, they pass on 100% of their commissions to users, which means very competitive cash back rates. Instead of keeping a cut of those commissions for themselves, TopCashBack charges retailers for advertising space on their website. Payouts are made via ACH, PayPal, or gift cards.
Thank you,
