Even though your cash back doesn't appear immediately, don't worry; you are still earning cash back. It typically takes 1-7 days for your cash back to appear in your Extrabux account. Some stores, however, can take as long as 20 days to notify us of your purchase. As soon as the store notifies us, Extrabux will email you to let you know that you have earned cash back. If it has been longer than 7 days and your cash back hasn't posted, please Contact Us with subject:"Where is My Cash Back?"  

Once you have earned at least $10 Available cash back and made at least one purchase (the cash back earnings exceed $1) , you can receive a cash back payment. To request a payment, first select a payment method, and then log in to your Extrabux account and click the "Request Payment button". You can receive cash back payments via check in the mail or through PayPal. We also give you the option of requesting Amazon.com Gift Cards or donating your cash back to a charity. Payments are typically sent within 5 business days. PayPal and Amazon gift card payments can take another 24-48 hours to appear. Check payments can take another one or two weeks to your U.S. mailing address.

Your cash back earnings will post to your account 1-7 days after your purchase, but the cash back for the purchase will not be Available for payment until 90 days after the purchase. After 90 days, your cash back becomes Available and you can receive a payment. We require 90 days because most stores take up to 90 days to report returns and order cancellations.

Pending cash back are your earnings that cannot yet be withdrawn because the return time (90 days) on those purchases has not yet passed. Once the 90 day return time passes, the cash back for those purchases becomes Available and cash back can be withdrawn ($10 Available minimum). When your cash back, referral bonus, and other rewards statuses become "Available", they will be displayed in the "Credit" of Account Detail. Withdrawal related records will be displayed in the "Debit".

If the status on your cash back just changed to "Paid", your payment should be in your PayPal account within 24-48 hours. If the status has been "Paid" for longer than 48 hours and you haven't received the payment, please contact us at payments@extrabux.com. We can track the payment and let you know its status. It is possible that your PayPal account is not configured correctly. If that is the case, we can provide you with the PayPal Transaction ID and you can contact PayPal to find out why the payment hasn't yet shown up in your account. 

When you click our link to a store's website, we earn a sales commission from that store on everything you purchase. We pass the majority of this commission back to you as Cash Back. For example, if you buy from a store with 10% cash back and spend $100, we'll add $10 cash back to your Extrabux account within 1-7 days. 

Even though your cash back doesn't appear immediately, don't worry; you are still earning cash back. It typically takes 1-7 days for your cash back to appear in your Extrabux account. Some stores, however, can take as long as 20 days to notify us of your purchase. As soon as the store notifies us, Extrabux will email you to let you know that you have earned cash back. If it has been longer than 7 days and your cash back hasn't posted, please Contact Us with subject:"Where is My Cash Back?"  

Please allow the usual 1-7 days for the purchase to be added to your account. If you do not see it recorded after 7 days，please add your order in this page: https://www.extrabux.com/en/help/contact

Click the "Add a purchase to your account" button and write down the order confirmation. We will send to the merchant to check it out. Note that due to store response time it can take up to 30-45 days to resolve the inquiry.

The order amount and/or cash back that the store reports to us may alter slightly from the amount you add (due to shipping costs, taxes, coupon discounts, and/or cash back restrictions).

Yes. In order for us to track your purchase and give you cash back, you must be signed in to Extrabux and click our link to the store before every purchase. 

No. Extrabux is not a store and does not sell any products. Extrabux is a shopping service that pays you cash back for shopping online. If you have a question about the product(s) you ordered, please contact the appropriate store.

Pending cash back are your earnings that cannot yet be withdrawn because the return time (90 days) on those purchases has not yet passed. Once the 90 day return time passes, the cash back for those purchases becomes Available and cash back can be withdrawn ($10 Available minimum). When your cash back, referral bonus, and other rewards statuses become "Available", they will be displayed in the "Credit" of Account Detail. Withdrawal related records will be displayed in the "Debit".

Although the store has not yet confirmed that they have a record of you clicking through Extrabux and then making that purchase, we've gone ahead and temporarily added its amount of Cash Back to the total "Cash Pending" amount in your account. We're now trying to convince the store that you used Extrabux. If we're successful, everything will then proceed as usual. Otherwise, we'll then remove this temporary cash back adjustment.

Your cash back earnings will post to your account 1-7 days after your purchase, but the cash back for the purchase will not be Available for payment until 90 days after the purchase. After 90 days, your cash back becomes Available and you can receive a payment. We require 90 days because most stores take up to 90 days to report returns and order cancellations.

Once you have earned at least $10 Available cash back and made at least one purchase (the cash back earnings exceed $1) , you can receive a cash back payment.

Payments are typically sent within 5 business days. PayPal and Amazon gift card payments can take another 24-48 hours to appear. Check payments can take another one or two weeks to your U.S. mailing address.

Sometimes. While it's not guaranteed, you can sometimes earn cash back when you buy a gift certificate. In some cases, you can also earn cash back when you use a gift certificate to make the purchase.

Not usually. If you use a coupon not provided by Extrabux, you may not be eligible to earn cash back on the purchase. Even coupon codes you receive in an email or regular mail directly from the store can invalidate your cash back. The stores oftentimes use coupon codes to determine the source of the order. So even if you click through Extrabux, but use a coupon code not found on Extrabux, the store will credit the order to the source of the coupon code and not Extrabux. It's best to check the Extrabux store page to see if there is a similar code available that you can use and still get cash back. If not, we always suggest you find the best deal for you.

Yes! No matter what country you live in, you can earn cash back. Please keep in mind that Extrabux only mails cash back checks to users with a United States mailing address. If you live outside of the United States, you can still get paid via PayPal, gift card or donate your cash back to a charity.

• DO enable cookies on your browser while you are shopping. Stores use cookies to track your purchase so you can get cash back from Extrabux! Remember, if the store doesn't track your purchase, Extrabux does not receive a sales commission, which means we can't pay the cash back. Some browser extensions that block ads while on the internet, such as Adblock and Adblock Plus, will prevent you from earning cash back. 
• DO click through to the store from Extrabux. Clicking to Extrabux from other websites or typing the store's website directly into your web browser without going through Extrabux will invalidate your cash back. Make sure that you don't click any other links to the store's website after clicking through from Extrabux. If you place an order at a store's website but forgot to click through Extrabux first, your order is not eligible for cash back. 
• DO make sure your shopping cart is empty when you click through to the store from Extrabux. In order to earn cash back, some stores require that your shopping cart be empty when you click from Extrabux to the store's website. Some stores keep track of when you put items in your shopping cart and if you don't do it after you clicked through from Extrabux, it's possible that you won't earn cash back. 
• DON'T use coupons from sources other than Extrabux. Some stores track the codes you use and don't allow cash back if you use a code from somewhere other than Extrabux. This includes codes you receive in an email from the store, on social media sites, on blogs, in postal mailings, etc. DO figure out the best deal for you with all of your options, but know that combining outside coupons with Extrabux cash back usually doesn't work. 
• DON'T delete cookies while you are shopping. We know that some people occasionally delete their browser cookies. Unfortunately, if you happen to delete cookies while in the middle of an Extrabux shopping session, the cash back will not be tracked. Wait until after all of your shopping is complete before you consider deleting cookies. 
• DON'T close the store website while shopping. If you do close the window, you must go back to the Extrabux store page and click through from Extrabux to start a new session. 
• DON'T checkout multiple times at an online store without clicking back through Extrabux. If you want to keep shopping after checking out the first time, you must go back to Extrabux and click back through to the store again. Even if you are ordering the same item at the same store but in a new order, you need to have a new record of clicking through to the store to go with your new order. So, after every checkout, go back to Extrabux to start again and click back to the same store or select a new store.

Security software, such as Kaspersky or other protection software, which can block the tracking cookies Extrabux uses to earn credit for your order. If you are using this type of software you will need to ensure that it is set up to allow cookies from Extrabux and our partner sites. Similarly, if using a firewall such as Zone Alarm, Norton Internet Security or some other such Firewall, then you need to keep the "Ad Blocking" turned off. 

Some toolbars can redirect the credit to another affiliate. If you have any toolbars installed you may need to check and see if they are linked to any other shopping rewards or coupon sites. 

The use of a browser that does not allow the creation of cookies. Extrabux highly recommends the use of Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome or Safari. Due to the number of third party browsers available we cannot verify that any outside of the ones mentioned here will work properly with the Extrabux program. 

Using a browser's "Private Browsing" feature at any point in the shopping process can render your purchase ineligible for cash back. 

Lastly, there are spyware or adware programs which can cause your online shopping to be reported as having come from another company. There are many free detection, removal and protection programs you can download online to protect you from and check for spyware or adware.

Members with the browser extensions AdBlock or Adblock Plus installed (or similar browser extensions or software) may experience issues receiving Cash Back. 

You can use a browser that does not have the extension installed and still earn cash back through Extrabux.

There really is no catch. You will never be charged any hidden fees. We will never ask for your credit card information. We will never sell your personal information. Extrabux is 110% free (really, it is)! We pay you cash back every time you shop online through Extrabux.

Earning cash back at iHerb is a bit different from earning cash back at other Extrabux stores. But it's still easy!
After you've signed up for Extrabux: 

1. Visit https://www.extrabux.com/en/stores/iherb . (Don't visit iherb.com directly.) 
   
2. Click "Start Shopping."
   
3. If you don't have an iHerb account, create one (preferably using the same email address that you use with Extrabux). For future purchases, you can skip this step because you'll already have an iHerb account that was an Extrabux referral*. 
   
4. Make a purchase.
   
5. Forward iHerb's order confirmation email to iherb@extrabux.com**.

You will later receive an email from Extrabux confirming your cash back! 

* To be eligible for cash back, you must not have created your iHerb account until after clicking from Extrabux to iHerb. (We only get commission for referring new accounts to iHerb.) Please only create one new iHerb account; after doing this once, you'll be able to get cash back on future iHerb purchases even skipping Step 3.
** When you forward an iHerb order confirmation email to iherb@extrabux.com, you must send it from the same email address that is associated with your Extrabux account. For this reason, we recommend that you use the same email address to sign up for iHerb as is associated with your Extrabux account. (Help) 

Thank you for trying out this new experimental way of earning cash back at iHerb, and keep your eye out for any changes to our instructions as we'll always be trying to improve the process. If you follow the steps but don't receive the cash back, please forward the full order confirmation to info@extrabux.com, we will help to check it out.

Unfortunately, no. We only receive a commission from iHerb if the person making a purchase on iHerb created his/her iHerb account after having clicked through Extrabux's iHerb page. (The reason iHerb pays us a commission is because they want to reward sites like us for bringing them new customers.) Note: if you did create your iHerb account only after having clicked through Extrabux's iHerb page, please don't create additional iHerb accounts; you will be able to receive cash back on your purchases (follow the steps). 

Extrabux's offer of cash back on iHerb purchases is unique and is also experimental (see What is a 'beta' feature?). We are working hard to make your iHerb cash back experience as smooth as possible. Unfortunately, if you did not receive cash back after following these steps, it is because there was no way for us to verify that your iHerb purchase was a result of being referred by Extrabux. Perhaps you created an iHerb account without clicking through Extrabux's iHerb page first, or maybe you didn't forward the iHerb order confirmation properly. Given the way that Extrabux iHerb cash back works, there unfortunately is no way for us to investigate your purchase and find your cash back for you.

At Extrabux, we're constantly trying to improve our users' online shopping experience. Sometimes we're so excited about a new feature that we want to let users start enjoying it right away, even if it isn't 100% finalized. We label these features as "beta" to let our users know that they are new and exciting but also may change as we work out the kinks. 

So if you're ever using a "beta" feature: congratulations, you're on the cutting edge! But also keep an eye out for any changes that we might make.

Certain stores do not support our "Add Purchase" feature. 

These include:

• Amazon 
  
• iHerb 
  
• TripAdvisor (and more) 

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Yes, probably. When you requested payment, we automatically sent you an email letting you know that we'd soon be sending your payment. That email contained a link that allows you to cancel your payment request. Click that link to cancel the payment request. Then visit Account Settings to update your preferred payment method. You can then request payment again. Note: if we have already processed your payment request by the time you click the Cancel link, it is too late, and we cannot change the payment destination. 

If the status on your cash back just changed to "Paid", your payment should be in your PayPal account within 24-48 hours. If the status has been "Paid" for longer than 48 hours and you haven't received the payment, please contact us at payments@extrabux.com. We can track the payment and let you know its status. It is possible that your PayPal account is not configured correctly. If that is the case, we can provide you with the PayPal Transaction ID and you can contact PayPal to find out why the payment hasn't yet shown up in your account. 

First, you need to check with PayPal to determine what changes you need to make to be able to accept the payment. If your payment is "Denied" or "Unclaimed" for 30 days, PayPal will send the funds back to Extrabux. We can resend the payment once your PayPal account is setup to receive them, or we can send the payment to a different PayPal account. Alternatively, if you have a U.S. mailing address to send a check to, you can choose that option instead. Please contact us at payments@extrabux.com. Remember that we can't resend the payment until the first payment has been returned to Extrabux through PayPal. PayPal payments are paid in USD (U.S. Dollars). You will need to make sure you have followed PayPal's procedures to confirm your account and verify that it is authorized to accept foreign currencies. Otherwise your PayPal payment may be delayed by PayPal.

If your Check is ever missing, lost, destroyed or expired, we are happy to issue a replacement. It can take up to 21 days from the pay-date for our check to reach your address before contacting Customer Service for further assistance.

And the 3% bonus will be added to your account. Amazon.com Gift Card may only be redeemed on the Amazon.com website, towards the purchase of eligible goods and services provided by Amazon.com. 

In order to speed up the payment process, we simplify withdrawals. PayPal and Check payments can be cashed in multiples of $10. Amazon.com Gift Cards allow for set denominations such as $25, $50, $75, and $100. Withdrawal denomination can Select One at a time, no quantity restriction. We will put more effort to speed up the payment process and keep your accounts secure.

Security is very important to us. We want to be sure that your earnings go to you and not to anybody else. Therefore, whenever you want to change your payment method, you'll need to confirm that you are the owner of the account.

Here is how it works: 

Step 1: When you begin the process of updating your payment method, we will email you a temporary security code.
Step 2: Use that code to enable the editing of your payment method.
Step 3: Update your payment method. 

Note: 

1. If you click again to send the security code, the previously sent will be automatically invalidated; 
   
2. If you close the current page, your security code will automatically expire.
