How to get DesignCrowd cashback, step by step
- Open Price.com's DesignCrowd page and click through to DesignCrowd from there. That click is what ties the order to your account, so start every DesignCrowd order this way rather than from a bookmark or a search result. The rate as we last read it was $1.
- 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.
- Check out in one go, using only codes Price.com itself shows for DesignCrowd. A code from somewhere else can void the cashback on many stores.
- Wait for it to confirm. Typically 30 to 90 days: pending until the retailer confirms the purchase and its return period ends. Returning part of the order, or cancelling it, changes what gets paid.
- Get paid. Price.com pays by: Debit card deposit, PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, gift cards, a donation to charity, or crypto. Minimum: $10 per withdrawal, with a $500 cap per withdrawal and per day. Timing: On request, once the cash back is approved.
Getting paid, portal by portal
Each portal's own help pages, as written there. The source link on each row goes to the page it came from. These are the portal's terms, not DesignCrowd's.

How these DesignCrowd numbers were produced
- Read directly from each portal's own merchant page, never copied from another comparison site.
- A rate we could not read is reported as unread. It is never converted into a zero, and a failed check never overwrites a previously good number.
- "Up to" and new-customer-only rates are labelled as such and are not allowed to win the top spot over a lower rate that everyone actually gets.
DesignCrowd cashback FAQ
Which portal pays the most for DesignCrowd cashback right now?
Price.com, at $1. 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 DesignCrowd 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 DesignCrowd, which mostly tracks DesignCrowd's return window, and then the confirmed balance has to be paid out, which is the portal's own rule. Buying DesignCrowd's gift card through a portal skips the first wait: that cashback is paid when the card is bought.
- Price.com: Typically 30 to 90 days: pending until the retailer confirms the purchase and its return period ends. Payout: On request, once the cash back is approved.
- Rakuten: 3 to 14 weeks for online and in-store purchases; 45 to 120 days for travel. Payout: Every three months: February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15.
- Extrabux: Usually tracked within 1 to 7 days of purchase, then held through a 90-day window for returns or cancellations at most stores before it becomes available. Payout: On request. Requests are processed within 3 business days; PayPal and eGift cards typically land within 24 to 48 hours after that, ACH takes about 5 business days, and a check 1 to 2 weeks by post.
- GoCashBack: It can take up to 120 days for cash back to become available. Payout: On request. A payment request is processed within 7 to 14 business days.
- Hoopla Doopla: Usually posts within 10 days of purchase, then becomes yours after 90 days. Payout: Every three months. Payments go out by the end of January, April, July and October to everyone who qualifies.
- RebatesMe: Cash back becomes available after the 90-day return window.
- BeFrugal: 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. Payout: On request. Most payouts are sent on the next business day after the request.
- TopCashback: No fixed window. Cash back goes pending, then confirmed once the retailer reviews the order, then payable once the retailer's network is invoiced. TopCashback prints an estimated payout speed on each merchant's page. Payout: On request, once the cash back is payable. Adding bank, PayPal or Venmo details puts a 72-hour hold on the account first.
