How to Earn Cash and Rewards While Shopping in Autopilot by Linking Your Purchase Cards!

How to Earn Cash and Gift Cards Using Dosh, Drop, and Pogo

Do you want to make some extra money that's relatively hands-off? If so, you should check out these apps that pay you cash back and rewards for your everyday spending. I'm a heavy user of credit cards for my everyday purchases (future post, cue the Capital One slogan)- not only do I rack up points with the card issuer, but I also get to take advantage of stacking these cash back and rewards apps to earn back even more! Just remember to pay those credit card bills off every month, otherwise the interest is going to kill any earnings you make from these apps. Here are my go to apps that I use on the regular to earn cash and gift cards while shopping in autopilot: Dosh, Drop & Pogo.

What are Dosh, Drop, and Pogo?

Dosh, Drop, and Pogo are apps that reward you for your location and purchase data. They are free to download and use, and they work with thousands of retailers and brands. Here is how they work:

• Dosh: Dosh is an app that automatically gives you cash back when you shop, dine, or book hotels with your linked cards. You can also earn cash back by shopping online through the app or by referring your friends. You can cash out your earnings to your bank account or via PayPal.
  
• Drop: Drop is an app that lets you earn points for shopping with your linked cards at your favorite stores. You can also earn points by playing games, taking surveys, and completing offers in the app. You can redeem your points for gift cards from popular brands like Amazon, Starbucks, and Netflix.
  
• Pogo: Pogo is an app that pays you for sharing your location and purchase data. You can earn points by linking your cards, visiting nearby stores, and taking surveys in the app. This app is also similar to Shopkick from the last post, but with more activities, and you can scan receipts to earn points as well. Once you've accumulated points, you can cash them out via Venmo, PayPal, or gift cards.
