I have been a member of Ebates and now Rakuten for years now. I really enjoy shopping and to get money back for doing that makes me very happy.
This site is very "rewarding"! I have been a member for 5 years and have received a rebate almost every quarter! This is a great deal!
Food was good and service was quick and attentive. I recommend eating there and plan to eat there again.
I was surprised that my order changed the moment I hit the confirm button. Price changes for all items. Not so good. Other than that, okay.
They will be a great add on a extension to my browser if the app would automatically pop up when shopping at a participating store
No problem site easy to
Use. I love getting money back! Very easy to use
I don't k ow what else to say!
It was fine. No complaints... been a member of Ebates for several years and I've always been grateful for this site..
I do feel that Rakuten offers a great value to shoppers. I would like to be better informed when I make a purchase whether it is qualified for a refund an how much. It is difficult to know whether to make a particular purchase.
I love finding the places I want to shop and seeing how big the percent back will be. It's so easy. Rakuten does all the work, I just have to shop.
I love all the stores I get cash back from. I'm sure more will be added. Just one click and you are in the money...
I have saved about $1200. What could be better? I have loved this site since inception. Thanks for all rebates!
It's very easy to go to the Rakuten website, find the site I want to purchase from, and place the order. After that, in a little while, I get a check from Rakuten that covers all my purchases through them during the past 3 months. Couldn't be better.
Sometimes it works great, than somedays I have to get in the site to make it work. Don't know what else to say about it. When I can the cash back it is great.
I have had Ebates, now Rakuten, on my computer for several years. It notifies me if I am eligible for a rebate when making online purchases. It also notifies me if I could get a better deal at another site. I have received over $200 in rebate checks to date and continue to recommend this service.
They say in store savings? I have yet to be reimbursed
For the stores I have shopped in. Shopping online that I haven't been credited for is a hassle also!
Sometimes I wonder if its worth it
It automatically identified the site was eligible for Rakuten and set up so that I would get credit on purchases. During checkout, it identified that there were several 'coupons' available which it auto-applied in order to find the best one. Very nice experience.
I love shopping through Rakuten and saving dollars! It is so easy to shop through the site with endless choices for shopping.

Answer: Hi Mike, This is a great idea. I'll make sure that our leadership team is aware of this suggestion and I'll see what we can do to make it happen in the future. We know that Ebates is the best Cash Back shopping service, but we appreciate your confirmation of this fact.
Answer: I can't answer about the owner ripping people off. All I know is I have ordered from Rakuten numerous times and have nothing but praise for them. I haven't read the bad reviews but I've gotten nothing but good products.
Answer: I can't tell you I would buy again. I had no help from rakuten when needed. They said they are not responsible for the sellers since they work as an online shopping center. I would suggest you buying at Amazon. I never had problems with them. Regards
Answer: I dont know there some wierred how come I just order some jewelry.com and I order two earring only and its just 30.00 dollars. But when I use debates the price went up to high.
Answer: If it for some reason doesn't show like it should, I contact ebates. I include a copy of the email with the information from the order placed. Normally I wait until the purchase has arrived. This gives ebates and the store to put the transaction in your account.
