How Cashrewards Payments Work
Understanding how payments work in Cashrewards is crucial for maximizing your cashback experience. Cashrewards operates on a simple premise: when you shop through partner retailers, you earn a percentage of your purchase back as cashback. However, the process of receiving that cashback and the factors that influence it can be complex. This article will guide you through the payment process, helping you understand how and when you will receive your cashback.
How Cashback Earnings Are Calculated
When you make a purchase through Cashrewards, the cashback percentage is determined by the retailer and may vary based on the products purchased or various promotions. Here’s a brief overview of how it works:
- Select a retailer from the Cashrewards site or app.
- Click on the link to the retailer’s website, which redirects you to their site.
- Make your purchase as normal, ensuring cookies are enabled.
- Cashrewards tracks your purchase through cookies, recording the transaction.
Payment Process: When to Expect Your Cashback
Once your transaction has been recorded, several steps occur before you can cash out your earnings:
- Initial Tracking: After your transaction, it typically takes 1-7 days for your cashback to initially appear in your Cashrewards account.
- Pending Period: Cashback earnings go into a 'pending' status. This period allows retailers to confirm the sale and for returns or disputes to be resolved. This may last from a few days to several weeks depending on the retailer’s policies.
- Confirmed Cashback: Once the retailer confirms the sale, your cashback moves from pending to available status in your account. This status means you can withdraw the amount.
Withdrawal Options
Cashrewards offers various methods to withdraw your confirmed cashback. Here are the main options:
- Bank Transfer: Transfer directly to your linked bank account.
- PayPal: Withdraw funds directly to your PayPal account.
- Gift Cards: Redeem your cashback for gift cards from several popular retailers.
To initiate a withdrawal, simply log in to your Cashrewards account, navigate to the 'Withdraw' section, and select your preferred method. Follow the prompts to complete your transaction.
