Cashback sites in Spain
Online shopping offers not only convenience, but also benefits. In addition to the discounts available to customers who actively follow the promotional offers and promotions of various companies, there is also the opportunity to receive cashback. In order to receive money for your purchases, you need to know how the cashback system works and which sites in Spain you can register on to receive “free” money.
Cashback is a reward that sellers provide to intermediaries for attracting customers and stimulating turnover and profits. Part of this reward is transferred to buyers who make purchases on specific sites. For example, instead of making purchases on the official website of the supermarket chain “El Corte Ingles”, the buyer can register on a site that has an agreement with this chain and receive a certain percentage of their purchase. Since the cost of goods for the buyer remains the same, he will gladly use the services of cashback sites. Of course, this is not a way to get rich, but why not get a few euros back for the money spent?
Depending on the programs offered by cashback sites, the customer can receive cash in their bank account or use a gift voucher on their next shopping trip.
In order for cashback to be truly beneficial, it is important to remember the following: you should only buy what you would have bought anyway. If you do not adhere to this rule, you may face additional expenses.
Before you start using cashback, it is important to consider the following points:
- It is not recommended to use sites where registration is paid;
- Cashback sites do not follow the usual rules of banks: once the amount required to receive cashback has been spent, you must immediately request your refund. If the page is closed, the buyer will not receive anything;
- Don’t buy products just to get cashback;
- It is recommended to compare prices for products offered by different companies, even if there is cashback, to find the most profitable option;
- Not all purchases qualify for cash back: sometimes certificates or other gifts are offered instead;
- If the product was returned to the store, cashback is not credited; it is usually credited 30 days after purchase.
There are not many cashback sites for Spanish online shopping compared to other countries. One of the most popular among Spaniards looking to save money is BeRuby. It partners with big brands such as Expedia, AliExpress, Avis and Booking.
There is also the option to get cash back on supermarket purchases via Tiendeo. The site has been around for a long time, but only this year began offering cash back on purchases. To get cash back, you must first check the current options and then upload receipts to prove your purchases. Currently, only gift vouchers are available, but in the near future there will be an option to get cash back to a bank account. It is important to remember that receipts can only be uploaded for purchases made within the last two weeks.
Some Spanish banks offer their customers cashback, which is credited directly to their accounts. Additional information about this service can be found on the bank’s website. It is important to note that the reward is only credited if the goods were paid for with the card of this bank.
It is also worth remembering that many airlines offer frequent flyer programs, such as Vueling and Iberia Plus, for those who fly frequently. The rewards are based on the airline miles the customer has earned and can lead to free tickets in the future.
Credit card providers also offer customer rewards programs. For example, American Express cardholders receive membership points that can be used to pay for airline tickets, hotel services, and other items.
