Make money with cash back sites

You can make a decent extra income online through cash back sites. These sites are generally free to join and reward you for making online purchases. For example, you can receive 10% cash back for spending at HMV.com.

However, in some instances these sites offer a greater cash back amount than you are required to spend. On occasions, you do not need to spend anything.

I recommend joining two cash back sites. TopCashBack is free to join and you can cash out (to your bank account, PayPal account or via cheque) at any amount. Quidco is free to join but they deduct £5 per year from cash back you earn (but only if you earn at least £5 in that particular year). Quidco automatically pay out to your bank account or PayPal account monthly.

Where to find offers to profit from
There are many offers that you can profit from. I will give a few examples below and I will post new offers on this site when they become available.

No Purchase offers
Just join the site for free and pocket cash or take out a free trial and cancel before the end of the free trial. Examples include LoveFilm (£18 profit) and Blockbuster (£7.50 profit).

Magazine Trial offers
Simply take out magazine subscriptions (eg £1 for 3 issues) and receive £5.80 cash back. Profit £4.80 for each magazine subscription you take out and remember to cancel before the trial expires. Do it no more than twice a month.

Gambling offers
You can make mega money here. For example, Coral deposit £10 and receive £25 cash back for £15 profit. There are many more of these offers and you should be able to make at least £150 from them.

Financial offers
Receive cash back for taking out credit cards, savings and current accounts. Don't do anything that will damage your credit rating. For example, £25 cash back for taking out a HSBC Credit Card - just do your normal spending on it and pay it off in full each month.
