Like a bonus item that should have earned extra points but the system didn’t catch it because the store named the product oddly on the receipt, throwing it off. So far, we have counted two times where it has ever accepted a receipt but missed something. Thankfully, that doesn’t really eliminate too many people (and they can still scan all of their other receipts).

Only normal Amazon accounts are supported at this time. We also found that Amazon Business accounts cannot be linked for automated online receipt collections. It’s an extra step that feels a little odd, but it does work out in the end. You are then free to use your funds via the site of choice.

They give you a special code that you have to enter somewhere which then unlocks the real code that you can then paste or type into Amazon or whatever site you cashed out for. When you do get the gift card, it doesn’t just give you the gift card code. This can actually take a number of days before you get a confirmation that a gift card is on its way. You have to wait for the request to be manually approved on their end it seems. When you go to cash out the first time, you tend to get a little skeptical since it doesn’t happen instantly. We continue to recommend this one over the other receipt programs due to the number of returns we have seen thus far. In this one, we wanted to simply circle back to share the success of the app along with what we have learned thus far. The process of how everything works is explained much deeper in our previous story, however. Especially after a trip to the grocery store that can potentially add up pretty quickly thanks to bonuses that can earn you extra points when the receipt contains products from certain brands. There has been a number of cashouts to Amazon (and other) gift cards since we started and points continue to pile in as everyone scans various receipts. Since then, we now have a number of colleagues that make use of the app.

We originally ran the story back in October. These points add up and y ou can cash them in for things like Amazon gift cards (ie, 10,000 points for a $10 gift card, or 20,000 for a $20 gift card). It is an app that allows you to earn points by scanning store receipts both on and offline. Late last year, we made an attempt to give the Fetch Rewards app a try.
