User Reviews for BeFrugal Cash Back & Coupons

Better percent back than Rakuten or Capital One

I always check the stores I frequent on these 3 cash back apps, more often than not this app pays better. Many of my favorite stores give 0 on the other apps and 4,7 or 10 percent back on BeFrugal. When I get my cash back I have been talking it in Sephora gift cards as they pay 4% extra that way. I put in for my refund and in a day or two - bam! I have a Sephora gift card. I usually get about one a month and I decide when I want it versus waiting months for Rakuten!

Extremely misleading

This is my first time ever leaving an angry app review. I don’t understand how this app has such high reviews. Not only are most retailers super strict about what qualifies, but if you return or exchange a single item on your order then the whole thing is retracted from BeFrugal. Not only that, but BeFrugal at one point told me that I had a verified, payable balance of $26 which i could’ve taken right then and there, but I tend to like accumulating funds. Yet a few weeks later I’ve suddenly lost that balance entirely, and well outside of the return policy of any store. i contacted support and they claimed that EVERY ORDER IVE EVER MADE WITH THIS SPECIFIC RETAILER WAS RETRACTED. I know for a fact that some of the orders contained no returns or exchanges. I was too frustrated to continue with support, but the experience and the misleading rules are forcing me to never use this app again. I’ve never had this issue Ebates or Ibotta.

UPS and DOWNS

I was under the impression they had the highest rate for cashback which is not necessarily true. Just the other day paypal offered 7X the amount frugal offered for the same store. Apparently you can submit a request to have it matched but I was told it’s not always approved. Well I don’t want to take that chance. If I guaranteed the money, I’m taking it. Also, they said you get $10 for signing up and making purchase, you can’t cash out until $20. Seems a bit controlling but I’m going to ride it through for a year and see how it goes

First time user only a few months now!!!

I’ve already made my first cash out for about $34 that was only about four transactions. The only reason I didn’t give them a five is because if you don’t read the fine print on the cash back offers you most likely will not get cashback paid out to you because there are only certain items that qualify you for cash back but as long as you pay attention to the fine print it is very useful! I would definitely give a five star if you got cash back on any and everything you purchased from participating retailers.

Scam app

I think this app is a fluke. I haven’t got my cash back yet ,it’s still pending. I asked how long it’s going to take and he talking bout you don’t get paid until we do. Ok what I don’t get is, there’s a lot of apps like this, but I get cash back fast. I’m new to Ebates and I got my 1st check in the mail before I got anything from BeFrugal 🤔 I mean it takes them this long to get paid but others faster🤔 obviously this app is a scam. That’s why BeFrugal ain’t getting paid and that’s why some of us is not getting paid on here. I signed up with BeFrugal the day I signed up with Ebates and now I’m 3 dollars away from getting my second check from them🤔 this seems sketchy and needs to be further looked in to and possibly shut down until fully investigated. I mean I could be getting cash back else where instead of wasting my time and money on money hungry scammers. How can I report this app?😡🤔anyways to the people who are writing good reviews are bots. Trust me I know all about reviewers because Im a professional reviewer investigator.🕵️🏻‍♀️

Terrible service and app

They make you wait 90 days before they credit your account any money unlike ebates that credits it as soon as you earn it you just have to wait the period for it to be mailed or sent through paypal. We used this service on a city pass purchase to buy disneyland tickets in May and they barely got back to us and denied the cash back on grounds that we clicked an external link which is completely untrue. We used Befrugal because the rate was higher than other places but their customer service was incredibly unhelpful and their service completely useless and terrible. I do not recommend. Stick with ebates or retail me not. They provide the best service all around. The app is so slow and crashes sometimes and isn't as useful as the desktop site is.

Crash on Notification prompt after login

Update: the login with special characters has been fixed, per the below complaint. So good on them for a quick fix.After I logged in, I was prompted to enable push notifications. I hit the button and the app crashed. I was not prompted again when I opened the app so I had to manually go to notifications to turn them on.====My login email has a special character that I use and have no issues with when logging into the website. The app says my email is invalid. Cannot use the app with my existing account.

Doesn’t honor cash back

I would not recommend this app. Even if they show a record of you ordering something through the app, they won’t honor the cash back if the store doesn’t pay them. Sorry, that’s ridiculous. What happens between you and the store isn’t my problem. You promise cash back if we order through your app. We hold up our end of the deal, you do not hold up yours. I could have used a different cash back app and gotten something back from my purchase; instead I used this app, where I was supposed to get 11% back, and got nothing because you don’t have things worked out properly with the stores you contract with. Very unprofessional. I’ve never had this problem with Ebates and I’ve been using them for years. Switching back immediately.

I wish I knew about be frugal a long time ago!!!

Be frugal always has the best cash back percentages. The percentages are significantly higher than all other apps at all times, they don’t just offer high percentages on special occasions, they offer them all the time and the best part is that you don’t have to wait for your cash back, it is issued right away. Some people think that using the app is complicated and not worth the time but that’s because they haven’t tried it. It is incredibly easy, there is no hassle whatsoever and your making money off of things your going to buy anyway.....what’s not to love?

Nearly 2 months in and still no cashback

I’m not sure why there are so many great reviews for this app but I have no intention of using it again beyond the first 3 purchases made at the beginning of December 2019. It is now late January and my cashback is still showing as verified and not payable. I use Ibotta and Rakuten and have been for years and I’ve never waited this long for cashback outside of travel cashback which they very clearly provide you with pending timeframes for- this app just leaves you wondering whether you will ever actually get your money or not. Boasting high % caught my eye and the high reviews brought me in but I will not use this app again. I’ll stick with the ones that I KNOW work and actually provide you with customer service and explanations / expectations.
