A formidable site to earn cashback. It's one of my favorites. The tracking is fast and reliable and I also have coupons at my disposal which I can use along with my cashback. I also love the nice website of BeFrugal. It's very easy to keep track of all my transactions and earnings. Even better, I get a 3% bonus if I choose Amazon Gift Card as payment method. I highly recommend BeFrugal. I've been using it for a long time. As a first timer, you may receive postal card and a phone call to confirm your address. That may have changed but that's what I needed to do to get my first payment. Great cashback site, period.
Thanks for helping us hard working, frugal folks save a few bucks. Much much appreciated. So glad i found you guys
I have been using Befrugal for years and have always received cash back for purchases. I would recommend to everyone. Why not get paid for shopping?! My only issue is that once your cash back is confirmed and you request payment, it takes a while to get it into your account, but hey, technically this is extra money!
Easy to use site! Have been very pleased with the Be Frugal site since 2012. Will continue to use the Be Frugal site in the New Year! Happy New to all!
Nothing but good things to say about BeFrugal. Very easy to use and what could be better than getting cash back for things I would normally buy anyway. I just wish I could also use it for in store purchases.
With all the shopping I did, I did not realize how much money I was able to get from Befrugal which I can now use on myself! Sweet. Great Service Befrugal!
I use two other cashback sites consistently, including befrugal. Befrugal has amazing cashback rates. I've made over $50 cashback in the last 6 months from shopping for normal everyday things. Thanks Befrugal!
I will use this until I get my first $25 so I can get my cash back- because that's how much you have to earn to be able to cash in! That can take a LONG time. Also, the cash back is "pending confirmation" and is estimated to be confirmed in 3-4 months. Ebates adds money to your account immediately and send you a check every quarter. I will be going back to Ebates!
Like i just said,. BeFrugal is the BEST. Simply THE BEST! WAY to save money BIG MONEY, hundreds, even THOUSANDS of $$$$$ over the course of time. Take it from me. And, in full disclosure,... YES... I AM getting PAID (to say this, review), by BeFrugal, every time i request and receive another big "rebate" check i have earned through the program. Sign up,... you save. Don't... and (you snooze) you lose...

I had multiple hotel purchases through them. It has literally been a full year and just got my denial from the investigation to get my cash back. It got me so angry that I just had to post my experience. I've since forgotten them and am using eBates. Literally the easiest cashback site I've ever used. Already got like $20+ in less than a year.
Hi Steph, I'm sorry to hear your cash back took that length of time to confirm. Our support team is always available to answer questions or look into an issue. Don't hesitate to reach out.
I've been a member year or so. I always go to Befrugal first before I shop online and most of the time I can find cash back from the site im interested in. It all adds up and it works!
I really never have to worry have to look to see if I got my $. Just a few times & I don't have a whole lot of time to look into it. I really love working w Be frugal. One of 2 I use.
Never ever has issues with on cash back payments and highest payouts. Prompt customer service always there to help

I just cashed out almost $70 that I didn't know I had. Perfect timing for the holidays and my upcoming trip to Disney World!
I've used BeFrugal for several years. They have consistently beaten all the other rebate sites for % back. My only gripe, & it looks like this may've changed recently, is that it takes forever to get your rebate check. I just requested payment & see that the site says I'll get my rebate within ten days! WooHoo! We'll see how it goes.
I always use BeFrugal to complete my online purchases and I just requested my cashback e-payout of almost $300! Thanks BeFruga!
I have befrugal and ebates and I always compare cash back before shopping. More times than not it is befrugal that has the better percentage. Also, I like that you request your check instead of it just coming. I like to let mine save up and request a bigger check in November to help with holiday shopping.
Get the best rate out of all cashback sites majority of the time. The pending wait time is slightly longer than other sites but you get more in return.
Answer: I had $38.24 coming back to me that I had to wait forever to get. And never got it. It finally became payable, I went to claim it, and befrugal blocked me from doing so. All the cash back disappeared. After that clicking on payments generated a 404 page. This is ridiculous. Whether it's a problem with their system or some other issue I don't know. But it really feels like they scammed me out of cash back. They won't let me log into my account now. I tried to reset my password and they won't let me do that either. A word from the wiser - Use Rakuten - they are 10 times more trustworthy than this thing. They also pay you regularly. BeFrugal is a Total scam! I read another review on Trustpilot where it says they will deactivate your account if they don't want to pay you. That's exactly what it looks like they did to me. Unbelievable.

Answer: Stay away from this site. You will not get your cash back as promised. Most your shopping trips never gets recorded and pathetic service.
Answer: Hi Linda, great question as we know that sometimes these permissions can look scary. The BeFrugal Automatic Coupons & Cash Back Chrome extension will apply coupons and activate Cash Back at the shopping cart of thousands of online stores. This permission just allows us to display a small notifier in your shopping cart that you click to apply the coupons and activate your Cash Back. I hope this answers your question. Happy shopping! - Chris from BeFrugal
Answer: You can check out what percentage of your expenditures you will earn by searching for Travelocity on the BeFrugal website.
Answer: Hi there, in order to earn cash back on your online shopping, you need to first be signed up for BeFrugal, then click the store on our website and shop as normal. We cannot issue retroactive cash back for purchases you made before becoming a BeFrugal member.
Thank you for the kind words, Michael! To clarify, we don't pay shoppers to review BeFrugal... our only payments are in the form of cash back, which I believe is what Michael is saying here. :)
