Es la más confiable y siempre a cumplido, durante todos los años que estoy con Befrugal
It would get a 5 if they could keep the cash back active.sometimes you check the cashback,but it dosent count once you purchase
Very good site.Fast payout. Easy to use and understand. How to use.
I love how I can request funds. However, I would like to have had the opportunity to change my Zelle account to my email instead of my cell number.
I just love BeFrugal. They have been so great to help me save money so that I can spend it on whatever I want.
I enjoy using befrugal because I get the most money back with this site.
Easy to use, they don't send you promo texts, the payout process is fairly easy.
Very good~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I love that you can get back money for buying things. Great service very helpful
Great experience with BeFrugal. Loads of retailers and loads of options for payouts.
I love Befrugal. The perks and deals are awesome. And the payouts are easy to process. I recommend this to all my friends. Love it.
Made purchase using befrugal click through and never reported the purchase. This included a bonus during that week they had to offer with 3 bucks for any site with 15 dollar purchase. Waited 25 days and nothing and tried to report via my click through and they said they cannot track it even though it is in there system. Do not offer eBay if you don't want to pay out. Back to topcashback as there customer service is top notch with any issue.
I like that you can request a pay out any time and that it offers some attractive offers. However, you can't collect on therse offers and the company doesn't value your loyalty. I have transactions that have "pending investigation" over a year and all I get told is I'll get paid when they receive the commission (there is no resoultion to these transactions and customer suffers because he trusted their offer). Also, I have purchases that have been verified since April which is way over 90 days that most companies follow but I still cannot request a payout because they have not become payable yet.

It is easy to get cash back but sometimes you have to wait on part of it. Im not sure why?
BeFrugal is great! Easy payout, no hassles. Love it!
Be Frugal is such a great way to earn a little extra cash for every day purchases I would make anyway. So easy to do!
I enjoy this website it does everything it says it's going to to and then some!
Love that the extension comes up automatically and saves me money wherever I shop!
Answer: I had $38.24 coming back to me that I had to wait forever to get. And never got it. It finally became payable, I went to claim it, and befrugal blocked me from doing so. All the cash back disappeared. After that clicking on payments generated a 404 page. This is ridiculous. Whether it's a problem with their system or some other issue I don't know. But it really feels like they scammed me out of cash back. They won't let me log into my account now. I tried to reset my password and they won't let me do that either. A word from the wiser - Use Rakuten - they are 10 times more trustworthy than this thing. They also pay you regularly. BeFrugal is a Total scam! I read another review on Trustpilot where it says they will deactivate your account if they don't want to pay you. That's exactly what it looks like they did to me. Unbelievable.

Answer: Didnt get the $10. Was not sure how to do that. Can i get the $10 now even after registering?
Answer: You can set up a few different ways (Paypal, checking account, etc.)
Answer: Stay away from this site. You will not get your cash back as promised. Most your shopping trips never gets recorded and pathetic service.
Answer: Hi Linda, great question as we know that sometimes these permissions can look scary. The BeFrugal Automatic Coupons & Cash Back Chrome extension will apply coupons and activate Cash Back at the shopping cart of thousands of online stores. This permission just allows us to display a small notifier in your shopping cart that you click to apply the coupons and activate your Cash Back. I hope this answers your question. Happy shopping! - Chris from BeFrugal
Answer: You can check out what percentage of your expenditures you will earn by searching for Travelocity on the BeFrugal website.
Answer: Hi there, in order to earn cash back on your online shopping, you need to first be signed up for BeFrugal, then click the store on our website and shop as normal. We cannot issue retroactive cash back for purchases you made before becoming a BeFrugal member.
