Holiday Shopping with Ebates

What is Ebates?
Ebates is a site that pays you a percentage of the amount spend from your online shopping. The amount varies, different site pay out a higher percentage than others.

How does it work?

Most sites use affiliate referral programs ( Example: You are on SassyGalBeauty, you see a product listed you like, you click the link and purchase. SassyGalBeauty would then get a % of that purchase as SassyGalBeauty "referred" you to their site") The difference with Ebates, is they pay you back a portion of the % they make. (Normal referral links on my site do NOT generate the type of revenue that Ebates does for their referral system.)

Is it a Scam?? Is it Legal?

No. It is NOT a scam, you really do get money back on your qualifying purchases.

YES. 100% legal, the sites listed on Ebates have partnered with them to pay out a certain % of sales generated.

My Ebates:

I signed up last November and have earned $81, and that's really just from Nov - May. I've not been really buying anything in the past six months. That's solely based on my shopping trips, I've received no referrals whatsoever!!

You literally make money buying the stuff you were going to by anyway!!

No Shortage of Available Stores:

Almost every possible brand or site you could want to purchase from, is listed on ebates. Clearly little mom & pop sites aren't going to be on Ebates (Etsy is on ebates). The amount earned varies, they will have specials at different times for various sites.
