About BeFrugal

BeFrugal pairs every cashback offer with a Best Rate Guarantee: if a member finds a higher published cashback rate at another portal within seven days of a qualifying purchase, BeFrugal will match the difference and add a small bonus. Members can choose to withdraw cashback as cash or as a gift card with a 25% bonus loaded on top, which makes BeFrugal one of the most attractive portals for shoppers who already plan to spend the cashback at a known partner brand.

Payout method

PayPal, check, direct deposit, gift card (+25% bonus) after the cashback balance clears the $10 minimum threshold. Cashback typically posts as pending within 3-10 business days of a tracked order and clears to payable after the retailer's published return window closes.

How BeFrugal stacks with promo codes

Cashback through BeFrugal is paid on the post-discount, pre-tax subtotal in nearly every case, which means a working DealTrackr promo code reduces the dollar amount of cashback but does not disqualify the order from the cashback program. The correct order of operations is: load the retailer page from a fresh browser tab, copy the promo code from DealTrackr, click the BeFrugal merchant tile to open a tracked session, complete checkout, and confirm both the discount line and the BeFrugal tracking confirmation are visible before submitting payment.
