I have it, and it has been very good for me. I was wondering how popular it is. Who has the app and has it saved you any money?

I downloaded it a few weeks ago and used it twice. The first time it didn't work. The second time I got $11.69 cash back on a tank of gas.
So not bad for a 50% success rate.
Ill see if I remember to keep using it. Figured it's good to get a little spending cash to give the kiddo, I'll just deposit it into a separate account for him. Hes 7, doesn't need much but he can learn about banking.

I took a stand and refuse to use it because of the annoying radio commercials

It doesn’t really “save” me any money. The gas at Sam’s which is right next to where I work is always cheaper than any of the Upside options However, I use it anyway because I set up an IRA on Robinhood and have been transferring my Upside savings to it the last couple of years and already have a 100 dollars.

I use it like a secret mad money account. I don't look at it (much) for the whole year and then around Christmas I cash out a thousand bucks or so and buy myself something stupid that I couldn't justify orherwise.

I've been using it for 1 year this month and I'm at $250. Take home work truck and fuel card.

Check out Acorns. It rounds up all of your purchases to the next dollar and puts it in an investment account. Ive had it 3 or 4 years and I have 2.5k built up that's made 10% so far.

Yeah me too. With that amount of marketing, they have to be raking in the profit somehow.
A few years ago I downloaded it to try it, and it seemed any gas stations it gave the "discount" at, were 10 to 25 cents more per gallon than the ones that weren't listed as participating stores.

I've been using it for a while and it is a nice little way to get some cashback on things that I would normally buy, my lifetime "earnings" is $884 thus far. Chili's is an awesome option with the app.

I have it. Works for me in CO and spotty elsewhere. I have made a couple hundred bucks over the years.

That's the beauty of it, you get rewards on alcohol purchases since it goes off of your total purchase.

I had been using it for about 18 months but I just deleted app. I had earned about $180 (most of that in first year) but the savings haven't been great lately and the app was constantly glitching/crashing. I got frustrated with it one day recently and just deleted it.

I have a fuel fleet card. Might as well take advantage of it.

Basically the same for me. My company pays for my fuel so I often look for the gas stations with the largest return and fuel up there. In my area I can always find between $.20 - $0.25 cash back per gallon.
Cashed out $700 around last December and bought my son a new rifle.
