    1. <\/strong>Fetch Rewards<\/a> is our team’s favorite receipt scanner app.
    \n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    \"fetch<\/a><\/p>\n

    Fetch Rewards makes it easy to save on your everyday purchases. You’ll earn points for every item you buy from the 500+ popular brands in the app<\/a>. Just take a picture of your receipt each time you purchase groceries, food, beauty products, diapers, cleaning supplies, and other products. You’ll accumulate points and can redeem them for free<\/em> rewards to hundreds of popular retailers.<\/p>\n

    The app also has offers worth extra points. Buy an item on that list and you’ll be much closer to getting that cash back reward. Plus, every day you scan a receipt, you’ll have an opportunity to win a daily bonus!<\/p>\n

    Interested in trying it out? Download the Fetch Rewards app for iOS<\/a> and Android<\/a>. You can also read our review of the Fetch app<\/a> for more tips on how to use our favorite receipt scanner app!<\/p>\n

    Earn Fetch rewards with these simple steps:<\/strong><\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. Scan your grocery receipt from ANY store.<\/li>\n
    2. Every time you purchase a product from one of Fetch’s participating brands, you’ll earn points.<\/li>\n
    3. As your points accumulate, you can redeem them for gift cards to popular retailers like Amazon, CVS, Target, Build-A-Bear, or even virtual MasterCard\/Visa Rewards gift cards!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \n

      I really like Fetch! It’s ingrained in my shopping routine now. I love that there’s a daily bonus, and any special discounts\/promos for specific items are applied just from the receipt scan – no clipping\/saving prior to uploading the receipt! It’s also linked to my Gmail and store accounts for Amazon and Walmart, so when prompted, it will scan online order receipts. It’s seriously just so easy to use! I haven’t cashed anything out yet but I have ~23k points so I’m planning on continuing to rack up the points and redeem them for a gift card to use for Christmas gifts this year!<\/em> – Emily, Hip2Save team<\/strong><\/p>\n

      “The gift cards ALWAYS COME. The receipts ALWAYS SCAN. I’ve never had an issue– it’s wonderful! Plus, watching the little points add up (and the cute animation) is just so satisfying! There’s no “wait time,” so it’s just scan and save. So rewarding!”<\/em>– Chelsey, Hip2Save team<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

      2. Scan receipts for gift cards with Ibotta<\/a>.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

      \"The<\/a><\/p>\n

      One of the best cash back apps for grocery shopping is the free<\/em> Ibotta App. You earn back money by purchasing items at participating stores. Simply search for offers online or while shopping in-store by scanning the barcode of the products you’re buying.<\/p>\n

      After making a purchase, submit a rebate by tapping on “Redeem” for eligible items purchased. Then, scan the product barcode (if necessary for that store) and submit a picture of your receipt. In addition to getting cash back on your purchases, you can sometimes<\/em> use the manufacturer’s coupons to lower your costs even further, although this feature isn’t as comprehensive as it used to be.<\/p>\n

      Read our Ibotta review to learn more about how and where you can use it<\/a>. Ibotta works at so many major stores like Walmart and Meijer, but it no longer links with Target. If you love to shop at Target, you can still scan your paper receipts to the app to score cash back!<\/p>\n

      Here’s how to earn money with Ibotta<\/a>:<\/strong><\/h3>\n
        \n
      1. Find offers online before shopping or scan the barcode in-store to see if there are any offers.<\/li>\n
      2. Buy the products you selected at any participating store (don’t forget your receipt!).<\/li>\n
      3. Redeem your offers by taking a photo of your receipt. They’ll match the items you bought to the offers you selected and give you the cash.<\/li>\n
      4. Your cash back will be deposited into your Ibotta account within 48 hours.<\/li>\n
      5. Redeem for gift cards to popular stores like Amazon, Starbucks, Kohl’s, and other stores – OR request a cash option via PayPal or Venmo.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        \n

        “Having a blast with this site. Easy to use and earnings add up quickly! Gift cards always arrive the same day as cash out. Recommend this highly.” <\/em>– Lisa, Ibotta product reviewer<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

        3. The Rakuten<\/a> app lets you scan receipts & save at 3,500 + retail stores.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

        \"rakuten<\/p>\n

        Rakuten has paid shoppers over 2 billion dollars in cash back! It’s easy to use. Shop online, add an extension to your browser, or download the app for iOS<\/a> and Android<\/a>. According to Rakuten, the average user gets about $63.50 in cash back.<\/p>\n

        How to earn rewards with Rakuten:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

          “My favorite cash back app is RAKUTEN (used to be Ebates). It’s easy to use and they often have double cash back days or special days where you can get significant cashback on your purchases.<\/em>” – Hip2Save reader, Sunny<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
