Comparing Cashback Shopping Programs
Personal Finance
Typically the two sites I find myself deciding between while shopping and looking for a cashback program are Fatcash and MyPoints, usually opting for FatCash since its easier to navigate and I get cash instead of points to use on gift cards.
Well there is this cool little site called Ev’Reward which lets you search for a store you are looking to make a purchase at and it will list all the companies that offer cashback on the site, and what the amount is. So for instance if I was shopping at Target, FatCash only gives me back 4.4%, Citi Dividend gives me back 6% cash, and the equivalent at MyPoints is 7.7% (they base it on 100 points being $0.77). Unfortunatly I have to read the fine print for Target… the 7.7% is based on 10 points per $1 but you have to spend over $65 to get that, if you spend under that you only get 5 points per $1.
But overall, a pretty cool site to help in deciding where to get cashback from.

You might also be interested in RewardsDB.com - has a large range of options with more rewards programs including the ability to look for the best price on a specific item and then see what rewards are available with the top merchants. You can of course also just look up rewards with a specific merchant if that is who you want to shop with.
You never know what all you need on a daily basis and I congratulate you for presenting to us such a nice blog. I was looking for a cashback portal with as many retailers to fulfill my needs without moving from one portal to another and by chance got through this user friendly portal offering over 2000 retailers in various categories. If anyone had been there and have some
idea about them, it would be a kind gesture to let us know.
