Frequently asked questions

QuickCashback is a free rewards service that pays you a percentage of your online purchases back in cash. When you shop at one of our 5,000+ partner stores after clicking through our site, the retailer pays us a commission — and we pass most of that commission back to you.

Yes. There is no signup fee, no membership fee, and no fees to withdraw your earnings. We make money from retailer commissions, not from members.

Click 'Get started' at the top of any page, enter your email and a password (or sign in with Google or Apple), and confirm your email. The whole process takes under a minute.

No. We only ask for payment information when you request a payout, and only to send money to you.

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority in your country of residence.

When you click a QuickCashback link to a retailer, a tracking cookie is placed in your browser. That cookie tells the retailer's affiliate system that we sent you. When you complete a purchase, the retailer records the sale under our account and we credit your cashback.

The most common reasons are: an ad-blocker or privacy browser stripped the tracking cookie, another affiliate link was clicked between our link and checkout, you switched from web to app between clicking and buying, or the product category is excluded from that retailer's affiliate program.

Yes for codes published on QuickCashback — those have been tested to preserve tracking. Third-party coupon extensions and codes from other sites often break attribution because they overwrite the cookie.

Most retailers only track cashback on the web. A few (Amazon, Walmart) offer app tracking after you activate on the web first. Details are on each store's page.

Anywhere from 24 hours to 45 days depending on the retailer. The exact window is shown on each store's page.

Contact support with your order number within 14 days and we will try to submit a manual claim to the retailer. Success is not guaranteed — retailers only accept claims when their tracking system logged the click.

Pending cashback has been reported to us by the retailer but has not yet cleared the retailer's confirmation window (usually 30–90 days). During this period the retailer can reverse the cashback if you return the order.

The retailer's confirmation window has passed and the cashback is locked in. Confirmed balances are eligible for payout.

The order was cancelled, refunded, or otherwise disqualified by the retailer. Rejected cashback is removed from your pending balance.

It varies. Fashion and electronics typically confirm in 45–60 days after purchase. Travel confirms 30–60 days after the stay is completed. Marketplace orders (AliExpress, eBay) confirm around 65 days after the buyer-protection window closes.

Once your confirmed balance reaches the minimum threshold ($5 for most methods), open your wallet, choose a payout method, and confirm. Most payouts arrive within 24 hours.

PayPal, direct bank transfer (US, UK, EU, Australia), and gift cards to major retailers. Crypto payouts are in beta.

No. QuickCashback pays all processing fees.

$5 for PayPal and gift cards. $20 for bank transfer to cover the higher processing cost even though we absorb the fee.

Cashback is generally treated as a purchase rebate, not income, in most jurisdictions. Consult a local tax professional for your specific situation.

Open Settings > Account, click the email field, and confirm the change from both the old and new addresses.

Settings > Security > Two-factor. We support TOTP apps (Google Authenticator, 1Password, Authy) and SMS.

No. Duplicate accounts are detected via device fingerprinting and are frozen. Referring yourself under a second account voids all pending cashback.

Settings > Account > Close account. Any confirmed cashback above $5 will be paid out first; any pending balance is forfeited on closure.

Email, name, click-and-purchase history at partner stores, and technical data (IP, browser, device) for fraud prevention. See our Privacy Policy for the full list.

Share your unique referral link. When someone signs up and earns their first $10 in confirmed cashback, both of you receive a $5 bonus.

No. Self-referrals are automatically detected and disqualified.

No — refer as many as you like.

It reminds you to activate cashback the moment you land on a supported retailer and tests coupon codes at checkout.

No. It only activates on the specific domains listed in the manifest — the retailers we support. It does not run on any other site.

Yes for Edge, Brave, Opera, and Arc — any Chromium-based browser can install it. A Firefox version is in development.

Open a claim from your dashboard within 90 days of the purchase. We escalate through the affiliate network on your behalf.

Retailers occasionally adjust category-specific commission rates mid-month, and the rate shown at click time is the maximum. Your confirmed rate reflects the current published table for the specific category you bought.
