ShopBack Highlights
Direct Link to ShopBack (this link contains my referral code)
ShopBack is a cashback portal and extension – click through the portal or the extension and earn cashback on purchases at hundreds of retailers.
I’ll highlight here a few interesting offers that I see right now (4/3/25) and will try to update with the interesting offers:
- Amazon (portal link)- ShopBack is offering $1 back for each purchase on Amazon. Note, the terms exclude purchases paid with your Amazon gift card balance. For the Amazon cashback you need to click through the extension, whereas for other retailers you can click through the online portal without the extension. Note: ShopBack does insert their affiliate cookie on the Amazon purchase which will supersede any other affiliate you clicked from.
- Walmart (portal link) – currently they are offering 20% back on Walmart purchases in select categories. Max $15 cashback.
- Doordash (portal link) – 20% back, up to $15 back on an order. Offer ends 4/12/25.
- Uber EATS – earn $4 on each order (not limited to first order like on other portals).
- Temu – 50% (up to $30 max)
- Ulta – 20% (up to $15 max)
- CVS – 15% back (up to $15 max)
- eBay – 15%
4%back on certain categories (up to $15 max) - Let us know what else you see.
Referral Bonus
Through April 15, 2025, ShopBack has a nice signup bonus of $20 for new members who sign up using a referral link. The $20 will reflect immediately in your ShopBack. Within 180 days, the new member has to earn $5 in Confirmed Cashback. The $20 referral bonus will then become available if you’ve confirmed your Paypal withdrawal details.
There’s also a $30 bonus for the referrer. After signing up, you’ll be able to find your referral link on this page.
If you ever wanted to buy me an expensive drink, here is my ShopBack referral link. Thanks. 
Quests Bonus
You can also get various other bonuses on Shopback by going to the Quests tab at the top of the page, or use this link. Be sure to ‘Join’ the Quests and then to afterward ‘claim’ the bonus. You might be doing some of these activities anyway and these are easy additional bonuses.
At the time of this writing (4/6/25), I’m seeing a $10 bonus for shopping any 3 brands, $5 for first browser extension purchase, $20 on first purchase, $20 for spending $250 on travel brands, and more.
Click on each Quests offer separately to find additional details and terms of the offer.
Cashout
ShopBack offers Paypal to cashout. $5 minimum required to cashout.
Update History
- Update 4/7/25: Actually it appears that the ‘Quests’ for $20 back on your first purchase tracked for me separate than the initial signup bonus. And so I think this will be $55 for signing up and meeting a few requirements: $20 for signing up with a referral + $20 if you activate the Quest for first purchase and then claim it + $10 for making 3 purchases + $5 for first browser extension purchase. Note, some of these bonuses end tonight 4/7/25 11:59 PT.
- Update 4/6/25: A reader points out there are also Quests which you can do which will help you earn more (some of the things you’re probably doing anyway). It should add $15 on top of the $20 referral signup bonus; see details in the new Quests section, below. Be sure to ‘Join’ and opt into each Quests offer. If you already met the signup bonus requirement, you can still opt in and do these bonuses pretty easily for an added $15 for a few purchases and a browser extension added.
Our Verdict
This looks to be an easy $20 with the initial signup referral bonus if you can get $5 in cashback earnings (e.g. five Amazon purchases or some other merchant). It should be easy enough to also get the $10 Quests bonus with shopping at 3 merchants before April 15th.
Other than the initial signup bonuses, the portal can be useful for the $1 cashback earn on Amazon and for some of the other boosted cashback offers as well. Always compare rates against other shopping portals on Cashbackmonitor or another aggregator.
ShopBack has a Wikipedia page and has apparently been around since at least 2015. They seem to be an established company in other countries and are now expanding into the U.S. (We have no direct relationship with ShopBack.)
I only learned about ShopBack today and browsed around their site a bit. Overall the entire platform has a sleek and professional feel. I also like that the terms are spelled out clearly for each retailer. Hopefully this will be another useful shopping portal/extension. Feel free to chime in below with your experiences.
