User reviews

It works, but questionable..

App used to work fine when I wasn’t using it that much, but once I started using it every time i would pump gas, it started being very selective making me question the app/company integrity. Whenever I select a 1 or 2% offer, the app works fine and I get the differed cash back amount, but whenever I select a 10 to 12% offer, there seems to always be a problem with the offer. There is no option to dispute or sum it proof of purchase using a receipt but rather a dead end letting you know there was a “problem” with the purchase.

I like the app but it should put the money in my back account instantly instead of 2-4 business days

I thought the money would automatically deposit into my account but it takes 2-4 business days.
