BeFrugal Reviews Summary

The company has garnered a mixed reputation among its customers. Positive feedback highlights the appealing cash-back offers, ease of use, and the ability to request payouts at any time, contributing to a generally favorable experience for many users. However, significant concerns arise regarding service delays, particularly with pending transactions and payout resolutions, which leave some customers feeling undervalued and frustrated. Overall, while the platform is appreciated for its potential savings and user-friendly interface, the inconsistency in transaction processing and customer support may hinder its ability to fully satisfy all users.

Great services
March 21, 2024

Very Good experience and I find it very helpful and beneficial offers. Services offered have a variety and significant discounts including a large variety of options and different stores and brands. The array of offers from groceries, footwear, clothing, eletronics, etc. The options are endless and for sure the cash back accumulates faster then you think.

They do say, "times go by when you are having fun"! We understand that it can take some time until you see a "Verified" status becoming a "Payable" status. Although, before you know it, your cash back is already Payable and you can make that Payout Request! If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out and we will assist you!

Do not trust them
March 15, 2024

They don't pay you back. Do not use this web site! The website does not work. I'm still waiting for my 60$.

Date of experience: March 5, 2024
Fernanda M. — BeFrugal Rep
over a year old

Hey Margaux! We understand how difficult it can be when it comes to waiting for that "Payable" cash back. BeFrugal is just a cash back portal that connects you to the cash back that is coming directly from the Merchants. We work solely with them on cash back. Meaning, that is comes from them and not us. Once the Merchant acknowledges the pending cash back, it will show as "Verified" on your account.
Merchants give us an estimated time frame of Up to 120 days, for cash back to go from "Verified'' to "Payable ". Due to that being an estimate, they can always change. Some can approve quickly and others can take a little longer to approve. Once they do, your account automatically updates. We would be notified of the Payable and you would be notified, by us, regarding your Payable Status.
I hope this information helps! If you have further questions, feel free to reach out to us. We are here to help and guide you through our services.
