I love finding new ways to make and save money. Although I use websites like Swagbucks and Ibotta I hadn't tried Ebates until really recently. I noticed Ebates was offering a $10 signup bonus so I decided to jump in and give it a try. I was amazed at how easy it is to use Ebates to make money.
What is Ebates
Ebates is a cash back program that rewards you for shopping online. You can earn up to 40% cash back on what you spend by using Ebates. Think Ibotta for online shopping. You don't save the money when you checkout. You get money back in the form of a check or Paypal.
How To Make Money
When you need to do some online shopping just head on over to Ebates. Check to see if the store that you are going to shop at is on Ebates. Then click the store's shop now button. You can go on ahead and do your shopping like you would. Ebates will send you an email to let you know how much you have earned. Every quarter you will get cash back either by check or Paypal. You get to decide.
How Much Can You Really Earn?
How much you can earn really depends on how much you shop online. I am not a big online shopper, but I do buy a few things regularly. For example, I found out I can earn 4% back at Petco. Since we buy our dog food online I can now get 4% cash back every time I buy it. I will make about $25 dollars this year just for buying the dog food like we normally do. It's an easy $25 for buying something that I already purchase.
Other Ways To Earn Money
Another great way to earn some extra cash through Ebates is their referral program. If you sign up here you will get a $10 signup bonus. You just need to spend $25 in the next couple of months. After signing up they will send you referral code that you can pass on to friends and family. Get your sister or mom to sign up. You will earn extra cash when they sign up and shop. Plus, they will get a $10 signup bonus too! You can usually earn around $5 when they sign up, but sometimes it is as high as $25 when you get someone to sign up and shop.
Get Started
If you haven't signed up for Ebates yet head over here to sign up. You can get your $10 bonus for signing up and shopping. Even if you don't shop online that much you will probably make a little cash with Ebates. I love finding fun ways like Ebates to save up cash for Christmas. I can just save my Ebates checks to help pay for Christmas presents. Plus, I can use Ebates to do my Christmas shopping making, even more, money!
