Zulily Cashback: Every Portal's Rate, Compared
No single Zulily cashback rate wins outright; the table below shows what each portal offers.
Zulily cash back rates by portal
Every rate below was read from that portal's own Zulily page, and every row shows when we last looked. Where a rate has a catch, the catch is printed next to the number rather than underneath it.
| Portal | Rate | Last checked |
|---|---|---|
| CouponFollow | Up to 7.5%from the portal's store listA maximum, not a standing rate; the everyday rate is usually lower.Read from the portal's store list, not the merchant page. The first visit to this page reads the page itself.source | |

Rates move without notice, so treat anything more than a couple of days old as worth re-checking at the portal before you shop.
How to get Zulily cashback, step by step
No portal we track pays a flat everyday rate on Zulily right now, so there's no single portal to send you to.

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 Zulily's.

How these Zulily 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.
Zulily cashback FAQ
Which portal pays the most for Zulily cashback right now?
No portal we track pays a flat everyday rate on Zulily right now. What each one shows, including ceilings and flat amounts, is in the table above with its catch next to it.
How long does Zulily 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 Zulily, which mostly tracks Zulily's return window, and then the confirmed balance has to be paid out, which is the portal's own rule. Buying Zulily's gift card through a portal skips the first wait: that cashback is paid when the card is bought.
- CouponFollow: Pending for up to 60 days, to ensure a purchase isn't returned or refunded. Payout: Monthly: paid on the 25th to the linked PayPal account, arriving by month end; rewards earned on or after the 25th roll to the next month.
- Mr. Rebates: Rebates post to Pending within 1 to 3 business days of the order or ship date, then stay Pending for 90 days from the posting date before moving to Available. Payout: On request, once $10 in Available Rebates has accrued.
- chirpyest: Not available until the retailer's return period has elapsed, up to 180 days or longer from purchase. Payout: On chirpyest's current payment schedule, which its terms don't date.
- RetailMeNot: In about 45 days the cash back lands in the RetailMeNot account as redeemable. Payout: On request, once the cash back is approved in the account.
- 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.
