Once you’ve scanned a receipt, it takes up to 7 days for your reward to be tracked. The money will show in your account after this.
You can request the money directly to your bank account, or you can choose to cash out with PayPal instead – it’s your choice.
For your first payment you are able to claim anything over £1. After that, you can withdraw the cashback when your account has reach £5 and over.
Please note that there is a 5% processing fee charged if you transfer less that £20, so make sure you’ve earnt cashback over £19.99 before you request a payment.
How to make the most with the app
Earning the cash back is easy but you need to make sure you get into a routine of using cash back apps every time you head to the supermarket. This way you will be sure to get the best deals and never miss out.
Plan
When planning your shop, make sure to open the app and check if something you are planning to buy is there. You could even adapt your recipe to include something that has a discount? Say you want to buy pepperoni slices but they have Pepperamis on cashback for free. You could slice the Pepperamis and use that instead.
The offers don’t always run for very long so don’t plan a week in advance; you need to check on the day.
Upload within 7 days
In the same way, make sure you upload your receipts as soon as possible. Although you have up to a week to upload it, if too many people claim the same offer early you may miss your chance of cashback.
Don’t use up your data!
When you head to the shop, either make sure you’ve written down what you want to get or take screen shots of the offers. This way you won’t need to waste your mobile data on checking or worry that you won’t get a signal!
Max out other offers and promotions
There is nothing stopping you using the CheckoutSmart app with any other in-store promotions that are taking place, so you can get the lowest price possible.
One thing to bear in mind is that you won’t be able to use the cash back on any items that have yellow sticker/are reduced in price.
Cash back shopping apps
Although you can use multiple cash back shopping apps to get earn cash back or even get vouchers and prizes, you can’t use CheckoutSmart and ClickSnap together. They are both part of Quidco so the offers are usually exactly the same anyway. You need to make sure you use one or the other.
If you’re looking for other cash back shopping apps then check these out:
- Shopprize – Android only
- Receipt Hog – Apple and Android
You can use these apps at the same time as using CheckoutSmart.
