NOPE!

In this article I'll share with you some of the apps I use, and others that are out there that may be useful to you! I kinda sort them to my most liked to the least.

1. Drop

In app look

What I like about drop is that in the beginning you get to choose the shops you shop at to earn points e.g. Tim Hortons, LCBO, McDonalds, Cineplex, and etc. so whenever you shop at these places you get points automatically, and before you know it you earned yourself some free gift cards!

BUT WAIT THERES MORE!

Other than just buying things to get points, you can also sign up for things to get more points like in last couple weeks I signed up for a credit card they were doing a promo to get 100,000 extra drop points and 1000 points = 1$ value thats 100$ extra! Plus you still get the sign up bonus from the credit card!!!

Use this link and get a 5000 point bonus thats a 5$ start!!

Click here to go to Drop.

2. PayTM

Gift Cards you can redeem

This one by far is one of my favourite apps you can get! Why? Because you can earn points for paying your credit card bill and property tax! BEST OF ALL YOU CAN USE YOUR CREDIT CARD TO PAY THE PROPERTY TAX! THAT'S TRIPLE DIPPING IN POINTS!

SO for example, you have a 500$ Property tax bill, you can use your credit card to pay through PayTM, so you get the points from your credit card for spending, and then you get the points through PayTM too! THEN when it's time to pay your credit card bill, you get another PayTM points!

That already is 1$ worth of points for free! 1000 points~1$

So what can you do with these points you ask. So you can actually use it to redeem gift cards, or even PayTM cash (which is not worth it cause the conversion rate isn't 1000=1$) to pay your bills!

Use my referral and get 5000 points head start!

My referral code is PTM4999593

3. Panel App

Simple look of the panel app

This app I like a lot! Why? Cause I literally don't have to do anything at all!

This one is super passive basically it tracks your location and wants to better its GPS services! By doing so you earn points and you can get gift cards for these which i've gotten some yummy treats through this app :)

4. Caddle

Inside look on caddle

This is a cash back app, but I use it mainly to earn that 0.05 cents per day by answering a few questions. Save up enough and you get a cheque to your door. Also if you do purchase the items that are listed there, you get the cash even faster!

Use the referral code EDWIN44413 for 1$ head start!

5. Rakuten E-bates/Ebates.ca

Shops offered on Rakuten E-bates

Do you shop online a lot? On Amazon, Sephora or etc.?

This app/website is for you! Basically if you use their website first, then go to your desired website, you get cash back! Different stores have different amounts of cash back. One thing I don't like about this is sometimes if you forget to go through the site, you don't get the cash back... so for someone lazy like me it's a lot of work!

But here's a link to get you start off with 5$ after your first 25$ purchase on any of the website they offer cash back!

Click this link to go to Rakuten E-Bates.

6. Checkout 51

Items you need to buy to get cash back

This App is a Cash back app where you HAVE TO BUY THOSE ITEMS! If you do buy it, you can get some cash back pretty straight forward. I like it, but I also don't like how limited it is so I scarcely use this app compared to others.

Click here to get started with Checkout 51.

Pampers Club

I'll just add this one on in case you didn't know about it. Basically an app to get free stuff when you buy diapers or find more points. Here's 10 points for free—BUYBBYRK19 might expire soon though so use it quick!

Honorable Mentions

There are other apps out there that try, but I just don't see the earning potential for myself, but feel free to check it out and try it out yourself.

Ampli and Dipp are similar to e-bates where you have to shop through their app, and you get cash back. What supposedly makes this better is that they interact and e-transfer you the money once you reach the threshold, however the stores are limited to ones that you may or may not shop at, and it has yet to gain popularity.

I hope this article has somehow helped you save or earn some more money :D
