You don’t need loyalty cards or rewards programs to start earning cash back on your travel and online purchases.
All you need is Rakuten.
What is Rakuten?
Rakuten (formerly Ebates) is a company that gives you cash back every time you shop with their affiliated partners through their website, app and now in stores. They have partnered with over 2,000 stores covering everything from sports, tech, travel and retail offering up to 40% cash back.
I know exactly what you are thinking… who gives out free money… it must be a scam?
To understand how Rakuten works you have to be familiar with affiliate marketing.
How Rakuten pays you?
In affiliate marketing companies will pay a small commission when a new client completes a purchase.
Rakuten is the middle man. They link customers with over 2,500 brands that pay out a commission to Rakuten when new sales are made. Rakuten then splits that commission with you.
You’ll receive $40 back in cash back for shopping with Rakuten.
