Introducing YouTrip Perks, our new one-stop rewards platform that uncovers the best deals and promos from your favourite local and international brands for you — but how does it hold up against popular browser extensions when it comes to cashback? Read on to find out!
Browser extensions are all the rage right now. From grammar-checks to ad-blocking and even analytics, these nifty software programs are great for tackling any online hurdles that one might come across in their day-to-day. However, today we won’t be discussing the best VPN services or the various productivity tools to get installed. Instead, we’ll be focusing on the realm of online shopping and comparing cashback extensions to our newest rewards platform — YouTrip Perks.
How Do Cashback Extensions Work
But first, how do cashback extensions work? Essentially, these extensions help you get money back on your online purchases if you’re diligent enough to follow a very specific process. You’re usually tasked with signing up for an account before you can download the browser extension or app. Thereafter, and this is key, you’ve got to visit websites you intend to shop at through a trackable link so that any purchases you make can be attributed back to you. Once the damage is done, sit back and await the cashback to trickle back into your account (the cashback redeemable period can take up to 150 days!) — for most cases, there’s a limit to how much must be into your account in order for you to withdraw it.
Enter: YouTrip Perks
YouTrip Perks isn’t just a place to get discounts; we’ve got stellar cashback deals too. While most cashback extensions skip out on promos for new users, we don’t. Sign up for your YouTrip card and get a bonus of S$5 in the bank to spend on your next shopping spree. Plus, the maximum number of days you’ve got to wait to get your hands on the cashback with YouTrip Perks is 45 days — and you can withdraw or spend it from your YouTrip account anytime!
