I have been a customer for a short period and have received the most satisfying discounts and cash back bonuses with BeFrugal than anywhere else. I wouldn't believe it if it didn't happen to me!

Forgot password.
Was a painless fix.

You're welcome, Janet! We care about the safety of our customers and their accounts. You worked hard to earn cash back, now it's our job to protect it!
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!
Received check quickly, and will keep using BeFrugal!
That's great to hear Margaret! Can't wait to see all the cash back you will accumulate!
They don't pay you back. Do not use this web site! The website does not work. I'm still waiting for my 60$.
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.

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.


Thank you, James. Happy to hear that you are enjoying our services!
