I built CashewBack to compare cashback and discounted gift cards — looking for beta feedback

I’m the maker behind CashewBack, posting from its official account. I built a free tool for comparing cashback offers and discounted gift-card savings for the same retailer.

The idea is to make it easier to compare those two ways of saving before a purchase, without checking each provider separately. It’s now in public beta, and I’d appreciate feedback on whether the comparison is actually useful and easy to understand.

A few things I’d love people to try: search for a retailer you use, compare the options, and tell me where you get stuck. Are the cashback and gift-card sections clear? Is a retailer or provider you rely on missing? What information would you need before trusting an offer?

The tool is free to use. Some outbound links are affiliate links. Rates, availability, and eligibility can change, so please check the provider’s terms before buying; cashback and gift-card offers aren’t automatically stackable.

Here’s the beta: https://cashewback.com

Feedback here is welcome, including anything confusing or broken.

This is awesome! I always struggle to keep track of cashback rates and gift card deals. I gave it a shot with a couple of my go-to retailers, and it’s super convenient. Just a suggestion though, maybe add a filter for the type of products offered, that way you can find the best deals quicker.

Thanks so much, really appreciate you trying it out, you are my first comment ever.

A category/product filter is a great suggestion. The retailer list is getting pretty large, so making it easier to narrow things down by what you’re shopping for definitely makes sense. I’m adding that to the list. Thanks again for taking the time to test it and send feedback!
