Why Shopkick?
In addition to being a totally free location-based shopping app, Shopkick allows you to earn rewards that can be redeemed for retail gift cards. You’ll even earn points just for logging into the app.
Earning points is as easy as just walking into your favorite stores, scanning items, and/or buying everyday products from popular brands. Your earned points will automatically be added to your Shopkick account!
Once you’re a Shopkick user, you can collect kicks and bonuses at tons of stores and restaurants including Starbucks, Macy’s, Target, Best Buy, and more. Then redeem your kicks for rewards, including various gift cards to stores like Amazon, Target, Starbucks, Best Buy, or can choose Paypal as a cash out option when you’ve reached $10 or $25 in kicks.

I had tried using Shopkick in the past and wasn’t really able to “get into” using it the way I had other apps. But I recently downloaded it again, and WOW. There are so many great offers to be found! In just the last few days I’ve scored canned pineapple, face wash, hand soap, and other things – all free or close to free after cash back! Shopkick is quickly working its way to the top of my app list, and I love the added extra of a few kicks just for finding and scanning the item in-store, even if I don’t end up buying. – Hip2Save Sidekick Liza
Shopkick is one of my favorite cash-back apps. I love the variety of products and the variety of retailers. I’ve scored kicks on everything from services at Ulta’s salon to household essentials at Costco. I like that you can choose PayPal as a cash-out option for when I don’t need a gift card and prefer the cash-back go right back to my bank account. You’ll also usually find high-value receipt kicks and, even better, offers with limits of 5 or offers for each variation of a product making it super easy to stock up for cheap! – Hip2Save Sidekick Elizabeth
I have been using Shopkick for years. It’s one of my favorite apps to collect gift cards to help out with my daily expenses. Before Covid-19 I collect one to two $25 Amazon.com gift cards a month. Now, it takes about one and a half months to earn one $25 gift card since I go out shopping less. I try to earn points while shopping in-store and pass by it like next door to where I was shopping.
Here are some tips: Ulta Beauty and sometimes Hallmark has the highest point to collect per scan. Walmart and Best Buy have the most available to scan, but usually small points per scan. Some have problems with walk-ins like Marshalls, T.J. Maxx, Carter’s, and OshKosh B’gosh. No points were given multiple times even after reporting them. I hope these tips help beginners to the Shopkick app!
I love Shopkick. I don’t go out of my way to scan things but if I’m already in the store then I do it. You do get more kicks for buying the things you scanned when you submit your receipt.
I absolutely love Shopkick! I live near a lot of the stores that offer the kicks. Many times, I don’t even have to get out of my car… all I have to do is drive past a store to get my kicks!
I also love Shopkick! I’ve earned over $1,200 over a few years. I live near a shopping area that has many stores within walking distance. I’m able to get my daily steps in while earning Shopkick points. A WIN-WIN!
I have tried twice and I have gotten “Sorry, this promo code is not currently redeemable”

Hey there! This offer is now expired, as it was available for a limited time during January. Bummer!
