ShopBack is Taiwan's ultimate money-saving platform, bringing together the latest discount codes, vouchers, and special deals from domestic and international retailers. The best part? You get cash back on top of your purchases.
My go-to partners include Agoda (8% cashback), Foodpanda (0.5%-7%), and KKday (2.5%). While they've recently added invoice rebates for convenience stores and Pxmart, I find those a bit tedious to use.
Sure, each shopping site has different rebate conditions and processing times, but when you follow the steps correctly, the money always comes through. And if something goes wrong? Their customer service responds lightning-fast. Let me walk you through what cash rebates are and how to use ShopBack like a pro.
Using ShopBack to snag cash back on your purchases is ridiculously simple. Just follow my lead.
Step 1: Create Your Account
First things first—sign up. The registration process is straightforward: pick your preferred method (email, Facebook, or Google), make sure the referral code shows that green checkmark, and fill in the basic member information. Nothing fancy, just the usual stuff.
Step 2: Install the Chrome Extension
Here's a pro tip to ensure you never miss a rebate: install the ShopBack Chrome extension. Head to your browser's extension menu, search for "ShopBack" in the app store, and hit "Add." You'll see a little orange "S" icon pop up in your toolbar—that's your new best friend.
Step 3: Activate Your Cash Back
When you're shopping on a partner site, that orange "S" will either prompt you automatically or you can click it manually. Watch for it to turn green—that's your signal that tracking is active and working. Alternatively, you can start from ShopBack's website, search for your desired retailer, click "Shop Now," and let it redirect you. Either way, green means go.
👉 Start earning cash back on every purchase with ShopBack's smart tracking system
Just shop normally from there—add items to your cart, proceed to checkout, and complete your payment. One last check before you finalize: make sure that "S" icon is still glowing green.
Confirming Your Rebate Tracked Successfully
This is where that handy extension really shines. When it switches from orange to green and displays a confirmation window, you're golden. Your purchase is being tracked.
Important Guidelines
Not every product on every site qualifies for cash back. A travel booking might earn you 6% while flights only get 2%—or nothing at all. That's just how it works.
Using discount codes or links from sources other than ShopBack might interfere with your rebate (officially, it won't work, though sometimes it still does). Each retailer has its own cashback percentage and processing timeline, but as long as you've confirmed tracking, you're set.
For multiple purchases on the same site—like Taobao—you'll need to reactivate the link for each transaction. Bit of a hassle, but worth it. And here's the kicker: if you don't make at least one successful transaction through ShopBack within a year, your accumulated balance gets wiped clean.
ShopBack has expanded into physical retail with invoice rebates. Download the mobile app for the smoothest experience. Select the "Invoice Rebate" button, choose your store and products, tap "Claim Offer," then scan your receipt after checkout. Or link your digital invoice carrier beforehand, and ShopBack will automatically pull receipts from the cloud.
Critical reminder: claim the offer before you shop. Once you've checked out, it's too late.
ShopBack works with an impressive range of partners—travel sites like Agoda, Booking.com, and AsiaYo; premium brands like Nike and Shopbop; shopping platforms including Shopee, Taobao, and Yahoo Shopping.

Worth downloading and testing out for yourself.
How do I check if my cash back was tracked?
Visit "My Account" and check the cash back overview—it logs every tracked transaction.
Are there withdrawal restrictions?
Three things: inactive accounts over a year get reset to zero, you need at least $200 to withdraw, and all banks except Taishin charge transfer fees.
What if ShopBack missed my purchase?
Click the "?" icon in the top-right corner, select "Missing Cash Back," and follow the prompts to file a claim.
ShopBack transforms everyday shopping into a cash-generating machine without adding extra steps to your routine. Whether you're booking hotels, ordering food delivery, or shopping online, those small percentages add up quickly over time.
The key is consistency—install that Chrome extension, watch for the green light, and let ShopBack handle the rest. With its extensive partner network and responsive support team, it's become an essential tool for anyone who shops online regularly. Why pay full price when ShopBack makes earning while spending this effortless? Sign up, start tracking, and watch your rebates roll in.
