Cash back comparison
We compared rates across the stores we track, plus how each platform actually pays you - minimums, methods, and speed. Here's how they stack up. Both are smaller, deal-community favorites rather than household names - here's how their actual terms compare.
Store rate comparison based on Savvli's tracked catalog. Payout terms verified independently - see sources below.
Sorted by whichever platform's rate is higher. Rates change frequently on both platforms - always check the live rate before you buy.

Rate isn't the whole story - minimums and payout speed matter just as much if you want to actually see the money.
Based on which platform has the higher average rate across the stores we track in each category.
RebatesMe had the higher rate on more of the stores we track, but BeFrugal's payout terms are more flexible - no minimum at all for PayPal, direct deposit, Venmo, or Zelle, versus RebatesMe's $10 threshold.
BeFrugal - its minimum is $0.01 for PayPal, direct deposit, Venmo, and Zelle (only a mailed check carries a $25 minimum). RebatesMe requires $10 in payable cash back before you can cash out.
Both hold earnings pending before they're payable. BeFrugal's window is typically 30-90 days depending on the retailer's return policy. RebatesMe's is commonly around 90 days as well.
BeFrugal advertises a Highest Cash Back Guarantee - if you find a higher rate elsewhere within 24 hours of your purchase, they'll match it at 125%, subject to their terms.
