Rewards Program: MyPoints

mypointsThere are many rewards programs on the internet that pay you back to shop through their site. I’ve mentioned Ebates and MyPoints is another site that also pays you back to shop through them. These two are my favorite because I know they are legitimate, it doesn’t take an excessive amount of time to build up points before you are able to redeem, and I have received my rewards from both of them.

MyPoints rewards you for making your online purchases through them at hundreds of retailers. The good thing is that it is not the only way that you can earn points. The easiest and least expensive way to earn points is by opening MyPoints emails, and clicking on the Get Points button near the bottom of the email. This is the route that I take and usually get less than five MyPoints offers in my inbox daily so it doesn’t seem intrusive. Another alternative to earning points is by referring your friends and family. Once they accumulate the specified number of points, you receive points in your account for referring them.

So what do you do once you acquire all those points? You do what I do, cash them out for a gift card. My favorite gift card to redeem for is Target, but they have dozens of places to choose from for your gift card. Turn around time is really great once you cash in your points and request a gift card. It normally takes 3-6 weeks for the processing time once you’ve redeemed your points.
