Up until quite recently, I wasn’t aware of cash back programs, such as Rakuten. I saw TV ads here and there, but just ignored them. Life happened and when I started counting pennies, I looked into a couple of these programs. It might not be much, but in little over a month I made $20 basically buying groceries online with Rakuten.

I love that I don’t have to do anything. Other similar apps/programs require you choose offers before shopping and submit receipts after your purchase. Rakuten works differently. Their browser extension pops up a banner if I visit a website that offers cash back. It also tells me how much I’ll get. If I buy something, Rakuten automatically adds that reward to my account.

It is that easy.

If you use my referral link – HERE – you’ll get $10 when you signup. I also get a bonus, so win-win all around.
