Cashback Motherload

TL;DR: This page is the TL;DR of TL;DRs, and will be updated regularly. I will grade things based on how useful they are, so we don’t waste anyone’s time. Things with A+ or better ratings are apps I’ve gotten hundreds back in cash back in less than a year. I will not post anything I don’t personally use.

Credit cards: A++. The mother of all cash back. Check it all out here.

Brokerage Accounts:

  • Interactive Brokers: A+ Get started on your investing adventure here. Get up to a $1k bonus!
  • Robinhood: B+ The brokerage that started the $0 commission trend. Get a free stock when you sign up here, valued at up to $500!

Personal Capital Management:

Auto Cash back apps:

  • Drop Rewards: A+. Get more cash back on everyday stuff, passively. Get $5 with referral code 4fdwa.
  • Pei: A+. Very similar to Drop, get rewarded for everyday stuff passively. You can link your Uber/Lyft app. Get $2.5 with referral code lleyf0.
  • Dosh: A. Similar to Drop but I’ve definitely earned less (still very passive!). Get $5 with referral code JESSEW50.
  • Hooch: A. Similar to Drop/Pei. Start with $5 here
  • Miles: A. Get passive cash back for travel. Start with 1000 miles
  • Bumped: B+. Get rewards in stock, but very similar to other apps. Only not an A because there’s a waitlist. Get in line here

Food/Restaurant Cash back:

  • Seated: A. Only available in certain busy cities, but if you find a deal here it’s 2-25% back, and requires nothing but a picture of the receipt. Get $5 with referral code JESSE244.
  • Lettuce Entertain You: A. Get rewarded at Lettuce restaurants. Start with $10 in rewards
  • Groupon Plus: A. More passive rewards when you link your credit card.
  • Spring Rewards: B. Also passive rewards, but the app is kind of glitchy. Start with $50 spring reward credit with promo code NQZURY.

Uber/Lyft Cash back:

  • Freebird: A+. This app gives so much cash back when you take Ubers. Get $10 when you use code b2183.

RideShare Apps:

Gas:

  • GetUpside: A. Get up to 25c/gallon with this app. Use referral code BU7YS to get an extra 15c/gallon on your first use.

Happy App’ing!
