I like them ok but it takes longer to collect points with them it seems and they are very picky about reciepts. They are generally fair. I haven't experienced too much trouble with them. Have had times where I've had to resend receipts due to scanning issue or if I had 2 reciepts at the same time but with different orders (rare but occurs on occasion at Wendy's) it took several times before finally someone noticed one had been paid with card, the other with cash. But I had to keep on them. But ok. Not as quick to gain rewards as others I deal with but far better than CoinOut!!!

Thanks for the feedback. Eric! We hope you enjoy your rewards!
The first year I used this app it Not as good as it once waswas…
The first year I used this app it was great. I got coins with almost every receipt. Then it started slowing down on both spins and coins. Now, since October I have entered over 65 receipts and only received coins on less than 10 of them. Max win on spins never over 10 coins. Maybe I get 1 spin for every 7-8 receipts

Hi there, Janet! Have you looked at our bonus opportunities outside of uploading receipts? On your Rewards page in app there are surveys, bonus programs & tips. More receipt uploads means more earning opportunities, so the longer you stick with the app, the more you can earn. If you want to learn more about it, check out our FAQs.
I love this app. I have been using it now for several years. Doesn't really take too long to rack up enough points to get a reward. I occasionally will get an error that a receipt was rejected and I usually mark it as an error (once in awhile I have to do this more than once) and it gets approved. Very rarely do I legitimate rejections. The only thing I sometimes have an issue with is forwarding digital receipts from email, but that is rare as well.
The current maintenance update is taking a little longer than I expected but it does say that the receipts you upload during this time are being tracked and will get added.once maintenance is completed. I don't foresee any concerns with them not getting added.

I have had this app for a couple years and have never had an issue with cashing out a reward or and issues with security with my information. A couple times had to attempt taking a picture of my receipt more than once before accepted, but I even have that with all other rebate sites I use. I highly recommend this app

I signed up for the app and haven't even been able to use it. After I created my account I was asked for a code. They never sent me one. After an hour I hit resend code. Still haven't gotten anything.

Things seem to get worse and worse with Receipt Hog. Constantly tells me things are blurry - they are NOT. Won’t accept e-receipts? Almost everything I purchase is an e-receipt? Except for gas or an occasional trip to my local produce farm. Are you kidding? I am NOT going to link my Amazon to their site or some of the other places they want you to link. But, WHY don’t they accept e-receipts from all the other stores that they are NOT asking you to link to? I spend more time resubmitting receipts or having to check the image and send back to them to reevaluate. Most NEVER credit me the points. This is becoming way too frustrating. Other point sites that I participate in have NO PROBLEM with every receipt that I submit. They never complain it is blurry or incomplete, etc. Maybe it is time for Receipt Hog to do some updating to their site. They are asking below for the DATE of my experience…this is NOT just one date. This has been going on for months, but it gets worse each week.

I tried to cash out twice with Receipt Hog, both times I received a text or email to redeem but the links never worked. I feel that this app is a scam and a waste of time.

I love this app, out of all the receipt apps I have downloaded on my phone this one is by far the best. All the other ones like CoinOut, Fetch, etc. are horrible. They accuse people of them not submitting their own receipts, which is idiotic. So I have deleted those apps that have accused me of such nonsense. Receipt Hog is amazing and knows how to run an app properly. An app user submits a good bit of receipts for one store doesn’t mean the receipts don’t belong to them. Big family, etc. have a receipt limit like Receipt Hog run your app better. Thank you Receipt Hog

Thanks for the feedback, Mallorie! We hope you enjoy your rewards!
Great all around. It's easy and takes very little time to scanning receipts and then fast when they issue reward payments! The customer support is also fantastic and very polite.

I have two $40 Amazon gift cards and it says copy the security code. Then it says click on redemption you are L and paste to unlock my reward on Hector. Am I supposed to do that? I don’t know how I’m 72 years old and why is this so hard. Barb please help me

Hi there, Angel! Can you please go to m.me/ReceiptHog or [email protected] and message us there? We'd be glad to help you out. Thanks.
my review is based on my customer experience so basically what happened is that I was shorted on the last gift card I got for Amazon they emailed me to send them a screenshot which I did then they emailed me again saying that they still need a screenshot so I sent another then they said that they still needed one so I sent 3 of them. this has been going back and for about a week and what makes me angry is that they take at least two days to respond it's been about three days since the last screenshot I sent. I wish they would just have an actual person try to help me and I say that because I'm fairly certain they're using an AI or just really one dimensional people cause they don't seem to have enough intelligence to read an invoice or at the very least have the decency to say they're not going to help so they can stop wasting my damn time. I had no problems with the app itself till recently but the service is terrible use at your own discretion

Hi there! Can you please reply here with your support ticket number? We'd be glad to investigate this further. Thank you.
I had to open a support ticket just to create my account because you can't create an account on mobile despite the app showing you all the prompts to input the information, you just never receive the account activation email. The response from support staff was prompt, presumably because they're being paid for speed and not quality. It seemed like they had read the subject line of my email and nothing else. I got passive aggressive answers unrelated to my questions. I got barely a month's worth of use out of the app, not even enough time to earn a single reward, before I started getting an error message every time I tried to submit a receipt. This "service" isn't worth the time or the frustration it takes to use it, frankly it's not worth anything.

The app does not allow the required “device verification” to go through. I typed my phone number and the “next” button turns green but when I click on it the screen freezes and does nothing. The “request a call” link is also dead. And now I can’t redeem my points.
They contacted me 2 days later and fixed the issue. Back to normal now.

Thanks for the feedback, Fernando. Let us know if you need further assistance.
They were great at the start of the Covid when I started using it for receipt scanning points. Receiving lots of little payouts like $5-$10 Amazon-other gift cards I could use online or for physical merchant purchases.... until they weren't.
Fast fwd 2024, they've turned to junk, with e-receipts never connecting including Amazon. Just sit on your phone spinning into oblivion, or crashing the app all together. Many screenshots taken before contacting their said Support - a lame-*** ticket you don't know even processes until you receive a 2nd BOT response in your email that they're "working on it...their apologies" blah blah. Then zero follow-up. Their Playstore ratings used to be a stellar 4.7. Now it's a lame 3.8 if that tells you anything... Totally no longer worth it. Can't even cash in my current points.
