User reviews

Points not accruing

Don’t get it. Have not received any pts even tho I have continued to scan purchases

Not worth the time

They want you to submit every shopping trip but they don’t even allow for your answers to be stored for convenience. ie you use the same form of payment every entry but you still need to answer two separate questions about that alone. They give you 50 points a week regardless of whether you enter 1 trip or 20. You need thousands of points before you get enough for a $50 voucher. They say you can get points for surveys but in two months I’ve only seen 1 survey which makes sense since marketing surveys only work for companies when they reach a large demographic. All in all, if you want to earn money look elsewhere. If you just need busy work then this is the app for you.
