Ebates- An Online Shopping Rebate Site

Ebates is an website/app that allows you to get a percentage of your money back on online purchases. There are many stores to choose from and it comes in really handy when you need to purchase something from home. I mainly use this program for my Amazon and Ebay purchases but they have other very common stores listed as well such as Wal-Mart, The Children's Place (especially now that school is starting back), and Office Depot, just to name a few. Each store listed allows different percentages back so be sure to check that you cannot get a higher amount back from a different store for the same product. Also, some store are broken up into sections such as Electronics, Home and Garden, Clothing, etc. Each section may offer a different rebate as well. There is also a bar code scanner on the app that allows you to scan the item to find the best deal. There are a few places listed that do not have cash back options but they do provide coupons. On the other end of the spectrum, however, there are some that have double cash back. It is constantly changing and depending on the time different stores may offer the double cash back option that normally wouldn't at other times.
How will you get paid?
There are three different payment options for Ebates. The first is in check Ebates sends out checks every three months. Here is the pay schedule.
