Christmas is nearly upon us. Perhaps you're gearing up for a last-minute shopping blitz, or waiting on the Boxing Day sales? Either way, perfect time to explain how you can easily get cash back every time you shop online...
(In the last 2 years, I've collected £800+ in cashback)

Earning cashback is super simple:
1) Join the cashback site
2) Shop at any of the 4,000+ online merchants it supports
3) Earn money on each purchase, either as a % of spend, or as a fixed bonus amount
4) Withdraw the cash to your bank account, or receive it as shopping vouchers

Tons of familiar names participate, like Currys, Halfords, LateRooms, Hilton, Costa, eBay, John Lewis, AO, EE, O2, Thomas Cook, Aviva etc. The list's almost endless. Companies come and go, but you're bound to find many of your favourite merchants there.
Typically, you can expect to get 8-10% back on hotel bookings, 5-10% from fashion retailers, 1-3% from electrical stores, etc. You can earn fixed bonuses (£30-£100+) for getting new phones or SIMs, changing broadband provider or utility company, taking out insurance etc.
NOTE: The cash you get back comes out of the fee the merchant pays the cashback site for sending them shoppers. In other words, the price you end up paying isn't affected. You just get something back. Literally "money for nothing", as long as you were planning to buy it anyway!
No need to change where you shop or what to buy. Simply remember to check the cashback site every time you shop to see if that merchant is participating. If they are, click the relevant link on the cashback site. Your purchase will be tracked, and appropriate cashback credited.
Purchases will normally show as having "tracked" within minutes, and will be displayed as pending in your account. They may take a few weeks to be credited to your balance. (Future events, such as hotel bookings or event tickets, only get credited after the date has passed.)
TIP: If you use an ad blocker, you'll need to deactivate it to allow cashback to track. (By blocking cookies, you're also blocking cashback tracking). An easy workaround is to use a different web browser, if you have one, when you're ready to purchase a product or service.
The Classic level cashback account is completely free.
Alternatively, you can pay £5 a year to get a Plus account that will earn you higher levels of cashback, and give you other bonuses too. (The £5 annual fee will be deducted from the first cashback you earn.)
