How to get Boscov's cashback, step by step

  1. Open BeFrugal's Boscov's page and click through to Boscov's from there. That click is what ties the order to your account, so start every Boscov's order this way rather than from a bookmark or a search result. The rate as we last read it was 12%.
  2. Shop in that same tab and session. Don't leave for a coupon site and come back, and turn off any other cashback or coupon extension before you check out: the last click before the order is the one that gets credited, and another extension's click can take it.
  3. Check out in one go, using only codes BeFrugal itself shows for Boscov's. A code from somewhere else can void the cashback on many stores.
  4. Wait for it to confirm. Verified cash back sits in the account for 30 to 90 days, set by the retailer's return policy and its payment cycle with BeFrugal. Store pages say cash back is typically available for payment 15 to 60 days after purchase. Returning part of the order, or cancelling it, changes what gets paid.
  5. Get paid. BeFrugal pays by: Check, PayPal, direct deposit, Venmo, Zelle or an eGift card. Check and direct deposit are US only. Minimum: $0.01 for PayPal or direct deposit; $25 for a check. Timing: On request. Most payouts are sent on the next business day after the request.

Getting paid, portal by portal

How these Boscov's numbers were produced

Boscov's cashback FAQ

Which portal pays the most for Boscov's cashback right now?

BeFrugal, at 12%. That's the rate a returning shopper gets, which is how the table ranks: an "up to" ceiling or a new-customer rate never takes this spot over a lower rate everyone gets.

How long does Boscov's cashback take to pay out?

On a click-through portal there are two waits, one after the other: the portal has to confirm the order with Boscov's, which mostly tracks Boscov's's return window, and then the confirmed balance has to be paid out, which is the portal's own rule. Buying Boscov's's gift card through a portal skips the first wait: that cashback is paid when the card is bought.

Is there a minimum payout?
