useless

shows 0 stores available even though I’m in the bay area lol. Even if I click on other locations suggested, nothing pops up.

THE BEST APP EVER

Wow getting paid to eat out is amazing and that guy in their TikTok is so hot

Scam

The app said that I have been venmo’d, but I never received the funds. 2 other reciepts have been pending for over a week.

Response from developer

Thanks for your comment! We completely understand that the wait can be frustrating. I understand our team is assisting you through the customer support email thread. Please rest assured that everyone with valid receipts has received their full cashback. Recently, we added a Plaid protection layer to help prevent receipt fraud and ensure cashback rewards go to real users. Along with a recent increase in submissions, this has made the review process take a bit longer than usual. Yours are already in the queue, and you’ll hear from us soon. We truly appreciate your patience and support! Happy to answer any further concerns at cs@upswell.ai. Thanks!

Total scam

it’s been over 72 hours past the 24 hours advertised cash in period and my requests haven’t even been reviewed much less reimbursed. Clever marketing scheme to get food and never pay you back.

Response from developer

We understand how delays can be disappointing. As our community grows, we’ve been processing many more receipt submissions than usual, which could extend review times. We truly appreciate your patience and are working to speed things up. If you ever notice another delay, please reach out to cs@upswell.ai. We’ll make sure it’s taken care of right away. Thanks for using Upswell🙏

Very smart app

I never thought a quiz could actually lead me to something so fun. Wild.

Response from developer

Thanks for using Upswell. Every quiz highlights the story behind the spot. Glad you had fun discovering something new 🎉 If you have any questions, feel free to reach out us at cs@upswell.ai. Thanks!

Amazing!

The quiz was so fun and the place it led me to was awesome. I’ll definitely try again next week!

Response from developer

Thanks for using Upswell! Curious which restaurant you checked out. 🙂 We’ve added more on the map view, and we’d love to hear your suggestions. Drop us a note anytime at cs@upswell.ai.

Awesome perks

Entertaining to discover the new restaurants and to get rewarded! The idea and executions are brilliant - a great way to try out new spots. Looking forward to see the list to expand in the future. This will absolutely be my go-to app :)

Response from developer

Thank you so much for sharing this 🙏. More great spots are coming soon. Thanks for making us your go-to app!

A no brainer

Just took a quiz and had one of the best meals I’ve had in a while. Still shocked I didn’t know this place before 🤯

Response from developer

So glad you had such a great meal with Upswell! More hidden gems waiting for you!

Hidden gems with benefits!

Crazy how I’ve lived in the area forever and only now found this gem through the quiz. Win win!

Response from developer

Love that the quiz and reward helped you uncover something new! 🎉

Great

Venmo’d the next day. Like, this is free money for food??

Only thing I wish was having more restaurants but can’t complain

Response from developer

Cash back that quick feels unreal, right? 💸 We hear you on more restaurants. New spots are already on the way 🙌.

What a great way to get paid for dining out!

I tried this app and got cash rewards which I could use immediately at my favorite restaurants. So easy to use! Love it!

Response from developer

Woohoo! 🎉 We’re so glad it felt easy and rewarding. Keep those receipts coming! More cash rewards are waiting for you 💸.

Only available in Seattle, LA, and the bay area

Waste of time if you are outside those 3 cities.

Response from developer

Hi! Thanks for using the Upswell App and sharing your feedback. We’ve started in the Bay Area and LA with 5 carefully handpicked spots, and we’re expanding. Stay tuned!

This app really pays me to eat out!

Love this app! Super easy to get cash reward. I felt very welcomed at the restaurant, had a great food, and saved money. Totally recommend it!

Response from developer

Yay, love hearing this! 🎉 Thanks for recommending us, it means a lot 🙌

Worth it

Tried the app at Carolina’s and ended up saving around 1/3 of the bill. I usually go out to eat a lot, but this definitely makes it easier to go more often without feeling guilty. I also emailed them about a small issue and got a really fast response, which I appreciated.

Response from developer

We are thrilled to hear you enjoyed using the app at Carolina’s Italian Restaurant and saved a big portion of your bill. That is exactly the kind of guilt-free dining we love to make possible! 😊 We are also glad our team could quickly help with your issue. Thank you for sharing your experience and for being part of our foodie community!

fun little app

It’s something new that I have been trying out because the promotions are close to where I live. There’s a lot of room for improvement like the other user mentioned but they are constantly updating. The customer support is slow as expected from a new company but hopefully they change soon! 0:)

Response from developer

Thank you for using our app and sharing your feedback. We appreciate your patience as we continue to improve and enhance the experience. Your comments help us make the app better, and we are committed to providing faster support! Thank you for being part of our community.

The updated one is working great!

These folks have been updating the app like crazy. It was a bit squeaky at first, but I still used it for cash rewards. Now it’s way smoother! Loving it. and can’t see what’s next!

Seems not ready for public use

Incredibly clumsy UI, customer support does exist but seems flaky and replies are delayed. Every time I open the app I notice glaring issues

Response from developer

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the delayed response and any frustration you experienced with the app. Since July, the Upswell App has evolved a lot and we hope you notice the improvements in your next visit. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us make the app better, and we truly appreciate your comments!
