How to get Cupshe cashback, step by step

  1. Open RetailMeNot's Cupshe page and click through to Cupshe from there. That click is what ties the order to your account, so start every Cupshe order this way rather than from a bookmark or a search result. The rate as we last read it was 5%.
  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 RetailMeNot itself shows for Cupshe. A code from somewhere else can void the cashback on many stores.
  4. Wait for it to confirm. In about 45 days the cash back lands in the RetailMeNot account as redeemable. Returning part of the order, or cancelling it, changes what gets paid.
  5. Get paid. RetailMeNot pays by: PayPal or Venmo, from the RetailMeNot account. Minimum: A minimum approved balance of $5.01 is required for a redemption. Timing: On request, once the cash back is approved in the account.

How these Cupshe numbers were produced

Cupshe cashback FAQ

Which portal pays the most for Cupshe cashback right now?

RetailMeNot, at 5%. 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 Cupshe 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 Cupshe, which mostly tracks Cupshe's return window, and then the confirmed balance has to be paid out, which is the portal's own rule. Buying Cupshe's gift card through a portal skips the first wait: that cashback is paid when the card is bought.

Is there a minimum payout?
