Ratuken

The Rakuten app is a free platform that enables us to earn cash back on purchases from a vast array of retailers, both online and in-store. By partnering with over 3,500 stores, Rakuten provides a seamless shopping experience where we can accumulate cash back rewards on our everyday purchases.

Key Features of Rakuten

• Cash Back Rewards-  We can earn a percentage of our purchase amount as cash back when shopping through the Rakuten app or website at participating retailers. These rewards accumulate in our Rakuten account and are distributed quarterly via PayPal or check.

• In-Store Cash Back-  Rakuten offers cash back opportunities for in-store shopping. We can link our credit or debit cards to our Rakuten account, activate available in-store offers and earn cash back by paying with the linked card at participating physical store locations.

• Browser Extension-  Rakuten provides a browser extension that alerts us to cash back opportunities and automatically applies available coupons during online shopping, ensuring maximum savings without additional effort.
