How to get Priority Pass cashback, step by step
- Open BeFrugal's Priority Pass page and click through to Priority Pass from there. That click is what ties the order to your account, so start every Priority Pass order this way rather than from a bookmark or a search result. The rate as we last read it was 11%.
- 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 BeFrugal itself shows for Priority Pass. A code from somewhere else can void the cashback on many stores.
- 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.
- 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.

How these Priority Pass 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.
Priority Pass cashback FAQ
Which portal pays the most for Priority Pass cashback right now?
BeFrugal, at 11%. 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 Priority Pass 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 Priority Pass, which mostly tracks Priority Pass's return window, and then the confirmed balance has to be paid out, which is the portal's own rule. Buying Priority Pass's gift card through a portal skips the first wait: that cashback is paid when the card is bought.
