CASH BACK SITES

Cashback sites are useful if you are going to buy something on the Internet anyway. If you do it through them, you get back some of the money you spent. Almost like using a credit card which gives you cash back when you use it.

After extensive research, I recommend the following 2 are the only ones to really bother with:

1. Top Cashback (only UK members can join this).

2. Cashback Kings (only UK members can join this).

Cashback pearls of wisdom.
=====================

Now that some webmasters with a bit more talent than I have, have produced some utilities to help with maximising cashback, I can proudly announce this method of increasing the amount that you get for trading in your mobile phones.

The basic method is:

1. Find who will give you the most money for your old mobile phone. It may vary, usually the same few sites are the best payers, but occasionally they are beaten by a significant amount by some of their rivals for some specific models of mobile phone.

Use all 3 to cross-check what you can get.

www.musicmagpie.co.uk/cash_old_mobiles.asp

www.mobilephonerecycling.co.uk

mobilevaluer.com

2. Use a cashback maximiser search engine to find which CASHBACK site will give you the most for using THEM to go through their link to the MERCHANT that you decide to sell to, from step (1) above.

For example, I have an old Vodafone 716, which Envirofone pay £2.12, the rivals only pay £2 or less.

THAT IS £2.12 FOR THE PHONE.

However, although musicmagpie and mobilevaluer both seem to say Envirofone is the best payer, mobilephonerecycler says that Love2Recycle in fact pays £2.20, although it also says to check this is correct before basing decisions on this.

So I checked it and indeed as at 21 January 2010 they do pay £2.20 so are the highest cash payers.

Next use
Smart Cashback comparison site

or the one that covers less number of merchants:
www.moneysavingexpert.com/shopping/cashback-sites-comparison

and enterLove2Recycle OR Envirofone (if you enter Envirophone by mistake you only get one CASHBACK site listed, as they misspell it as well). It shows that TopCashback and CashBackKings give £3.60 for registering and selling to Envirofone through them.

The cashback sites comparison tool also shows that only TopCashBack gives £3.50 for using Love2Recycle.

Hence overall, there is only going to be 2 pence difference if you sell to Envirofone or Love2Recycle. To explain fully this conclusion,

Using L2R gives £2.20 + £3.50 = £5.70 total for selling this phone.

Using Envirofone gives £2.12 + £3.60= £5.72

Note that TopCashBack AND CashBackKings both pay out if you have as little as 1 penny in your cashback account, and they also have the almost unique advantage compared to the other CASHBACK sites that they do not charge any admin fee for requesting payment, unlike other cashback sites.

Most importantly, they also give you 100% of the commission that the merchant gives them for introducing you, other cashback sites may not charge an admin fee but then they do not give you all the cash that they get for your actions with the merchants you use.


To conclude:
==========

Find out which mobile recycling MERCHANT pays the most for the particular phone you want to sell.

Find out which Cashback site will give the highest cashback for that particular merchant that you have decided to go with.

For peace of mind, also check the next best merchant ( or more if you have the time and inclination) to see if the cashback is more than enough to make the (total-phone-sale + cashback) a better deal than that associated with only the merchant who will pay most for your phone.


Finally, if you have more than one phone to sell, open an account with a DIFFERENT used mobile buying site, for EACH phone you want to sell and that way you are likely to get more cashback to add to the amount that the site pays you for your old mobile phone.

For example, if you sell second and subsequent phones to Envirophone, they only perhaps give £1.50 CASHBACK per additional phone sold to them.

If you sell to one of their satelite companies, as a NEW customer, then you can get £3 cashback for being a "new customer" instead.

Plus what they pay you for your phone of course!

I recommend joining Top Cashback (only UK members can join this) first.

NO admin fee, no payout threshold and gives 100% of the payment they receive from the merchant, to you, with no deductions.

In fact, you can easily get over £10 without spending a penny in a few days (depending on if you already are a member of some sites, as you will not get paid for joining them again, in fact that will cause your account to be deleted). It does take a while for all the cash to be paid out, as some merchants take a while to pay TopCashBack, but you can request payment from as little as £0.01, yes that is right, ONE PENNY, so long as it is paid to your Bank Account or PayPal.
See ALL the current merchants on TCB, and see if there are any that are useful to you, by visiting :
ALL current Merchants
HOW TO MAKE YOUR FIRST £10 (more or less) ON TOPCASHBACK

1. Sign up to Top Cashback

2. SIGNUP TO THESE MERCHANTS FOR FREE, NO NEED TO PAY.

Select "Useful Links" from the BROWSE button on top of the page, and join what you can. Select "ALL" and "HIGHEST £" to speed up finding the no-purchase needed offers that are worth doing first.

Then select the "Recently Added Offers" and see if they have anything not in the above selection, that you fancy doing. For example, perhaps your kids want a WII game, and you go to GAME or The Hut and buy it there at an already reasonable price, and get more off by cash back.

Then select the option "Recently Updated Offers" to make sure you notice everything, if you want to avoid buyiing anuything, selext "highest £" or if buying something try "highest %" first.
Personallyh I find "all" and "Newest Added" the most useful, once you have done all the merchants you can on joining. That way you miss nothing new.

Finally there are :
DAILY EARNERS
Its Your View £0.01 or £0.70 if you get a survey
     The HighStreet Web £0.04
     WeAllShop £0.02
     Kelkoo £0.01

TOTAL DAILY EARNINGS £0.08 or £0.77 (or more, once I had 4 surveys in one day = £2.80!!!)

Hence in even as little as 1 days time from joining you should easily have got over £10.

You can speed this up if you search for Vans and Cars, just see the site for "recurring offers" link.

I have not included them here as I do not drive, and felt it unethical to encourage others to search falsely.

Of the search engines, Kelkoo is the best, but The HighStreet Web is next best. I have found some cheap memory cards using them and Kelkoo. The rest of the search sites are a bit rubbish in my opinion, having used them a few times.

You can also join to Opinion WOrld (£0.50), Super Free Bingo (£0.50), MyOffers (£1.00), My Survey (£1.50) and Get Me A Ticket (£0.70), without spending a penny, indeed, some earn you even more in paid surveys, etc, but I have not included them in the table above, because I am only listing merchants that tracked for me, and I have personal experience of.

Since I am a member of these already, I CANNOT SIGN UP TO THEM AGAIN (and to do so might cause the TopCashBack account to be deleted), so cannot talk honestly about how they behave on TopCashBack. They are all OK, however.


Updated list of TopCashBack, No Purchase Offers, as at 1 Feb 2010.

These do not require credit card details and so do not have to be cancelled within any deadline.

I have removed all the search engine and credit card required offers as well, including Tesco sim that needs £10 activation before getting £4.20 back.

Lands End Direct Cashback
Up to £0.10 or 10%

At Lands' End it's easy to shop for casual clothing for women and men. They offer a full range of knitted tops, trousers and jeans, shoes, t-shirts,
sweaters, dresses and skirts, mocks and turtlenecks, blazers and jackets, underwear, shorts, and more.
THAT MAKES AT LEAST £11 MINIMUM, as possible earnings the first day you join.

More, if you want to use the comparison websites like gocompare and confused.com, which pay quite well.
If you want to give it a try, join Top Cashback here.

Some points to consider if joining any of the others.

If possible, use the cashback site that gives most money, has the lowest minimum payout threshold (so you do not have to wait ages to get paid), and do as much shopping on that site so your each pay-out quicker.

If you spread your purchases amongst many cashback sites you may fail to reach the minimum payout on all of them because none of them have enough purchases for you to reach the qualifying minimum payout amount.

That will then mean you may never get paid from some of the lesser used sites since they will not have much that is relevant to your interests or requirements.

On the other hand, some sites negotiate really good deals, sometimes deals that you would not get as an independent purchaser going direct to the merchant's site.

Hence I suggest join ALL the cashback sites you can, obviously I am hoping you will do me a favour and do so "just in case", using this site's cash back links.

It costs you nothing, and you may find a bargain exclusive to one site only, not the rest. Such as the Virgin Credit card I now use, and could only be paid (£5) by using Cashback Kings.


Another tip, if nearly at payout level, perhaps only £2 or £3 say, it might be worth buying something even if you will only store/throw/give-it-away and get the extra cashback that will take you over the payment threshold. Only applies if you have decided to not use the cashback site any more and do not want to lose the money earned so far, when you cancel the account (or it expires from not logging in at least once in the timescale specified by the site's terms and conditions).

If you join up to the mailing list at the bottom of this site, I will send 2-3 emails from an autoresponder, only one a day. The first or second of which will contain the name and link to a site that is vastly superior to mine, and has a lot more information on cashback sites, which ones are best, and where the highest cashback can be obtained for a particular product.

Alternatively, use the Google Search engine to look for the term "cashback" if you do not like the idea of me getting something from the merchants, when you sign up with from my cashback links on this site, or if you do not want to risk spam emails, even though promise I will not sell your email address or abuse it.


Latest addition, is PureProfile. Today I just finished a survey and got £2. Unfortunately payout is £25, but I am half way there now. You earn $1 for every $5 your referrals earn up to a maximum of $5 for each member. So if you recruit 100 members, and they all earn over $5 then you get $100 (£50 if in the UK). Give them a try.
PureProfile


If still here, thanks for helping this site by joining up from the links below. As a perk of remaining on this webpage, and returning to it after signing up to each site (use the BACK browser button to do so if you lose me), I have put the cash back sites that do not have a payment threshold and no admin fee first.

That means TopCashBack and CashBack Kings first, then Rpoints as their threshold for payment is only £1 (only if payment by BACS though, which I prefer!).


TopCashBack


LineMyPocket

MutualPoints is a site I have belonged to forever it seems. At least 10 years, possibly up to 12 years. They bought out MyPoints (the UK version only) which I was a member of years ago. I have had at least one payment of £20 every year, sometimes 2, for just reading emails and joining up to things FOR FREE, which earn you points. I joined up to their credit card and it was very useful as it had 0% balance transfer for 1 year. You also get cash back for shopping. 3000 points allows you to request a £20 High Street Voucher. I usually get Argos ones.

Cashback Kings
Owned by Rpoints, which is strange as Rpoints only gives 20 pence for joining Zoom Panel, yet
Cashback Kings gives £1 !!

Just to obfuscate things here is a similar sounding named site. CashbacKing It has DAILY CLICKS as well, and in fact has many more than most of the other cashback sites, the usual Kelkoo and the HighStreet Web search of course, and insurance and car related daily searches as well. Not sure how long it would last if members hammered these sites, before they deleted CashbacKing from their affiliate schemes so not paying CashbacKing, who therefore could not pay us!


WePromiseTo is a cashback site that lets you register a credit card (any card, not just one signed up to from them) and if you go into a (currently limited, hopefully expanding soon) range of shops on the High Street, you get cashback in your WePromiseTo account. That is on top of any cash back that will be credited to your credit card! So if you used an American Express 5% cashback card, you would get even more total savings on what you would have to buy anyway!!!


Loyalty Shopper is a nice site. When you join, allow an hour to take the Just Rewards.co.uk site's Experian survey, and if you already did it in the last 12 months, do not bother as at the end they say you have already done it in the last 12 months so reject your survey. At least, that is what happened to me. So I assume I am not entered into the £5000 prize draw, but am now a member of JustRewards.co.uk. I will wait to see what the emails indicate in the future.

The point being, that this, and another signup task are needed to be done on the FIRST DAY OF JOINING Loyalty Shopper, to get £10 in bonus points that only applies to the first day you join. The other tasks include getting a quote for Household Insurance, or for Car Insurance.


ClickCashBack



Join Pigsback.com for free for celebrity gossip, film reviews, competitions and more.
They pay with Amazon and other vouchers (you choose), unlike the sites mentioned so far, but these are still a valuable resource.

This is also a cashback site that lets you register a credit card (any card, not just one signed up to from them) and if you go into a (currently limited, hopefully expanding soon) range of shops on the High Street, you get cashback in your PigsBack account.



Finally, here is a little known cashback site. A combination of search engine, price comparison and cashback in fact!!! You will not find this on many other sites talking about cashback sites. There may be a reason for that so use "due dilligence" before joining.

I joined, tried them, am not that impressed, since I am a cheapskate, and there do not seem to be a list of easy to earn "free points". You have to guess that PriceRunner, KelKoo and the like, are on there to find them and use them to get a small payment each day, just for searching.

Threshold means the minimum amount you have to have in your account before you can get paid ( usually called payment threshold). The smaller the better! Zero is ideal.
