How to get Corel cashback, step by step

  1. Open Active Junky's Corel page and click through to Corel from there. That click is what ties the order to your account, so start every Corel order this way rather than from a bookmark or a search result. The rate as we last read it was 8%.
  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 Active Junky itself shows for Corel. A code from somewhere else can void the cashback on many stores.
  4. Wait for it to confirm. Orders stay pending until the partner store approves them. For travel and events, partners typically approve within about 3 months after the trip or event. Returning part of the order, or cancelling it, changes what gets paid.
  5. Get paid. Active Junky pays by: Check, PayPal, Venmo or a credit/debit card. Approved cash back can also be cashed out early as a gift card. Minimum: None stated for the monthly payout. Cashing out early as a gift card takes $5.01 in approved cash back. Timing: On the 20th of each month, or the next business day when the 20th falls on a weekend or holiday.

How these Corel numbers were produced

Corel cashback FAQ

Which portal pays the most for Corel cashback right now?

Active Junky, at 8%. 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 Corel 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 Corel, which mostly tracks Corel's return window, and then the confirmed balance has to be paid out, which is the portal's own rule. Buying Corel's gift card through a portal skips the first wait: that cashback is paid when the card is bought.

Is there a minimum payout?
