The new Snagshout

What changed?
Snagshout moved to a new, faster site. Your account, your wallet balance and your last 5 years of orders came with you. Same web address, same login.
I can't log in.
Use the email you used on the old Snagshout. If your password doesn't work, or you used to log in with Facebook, use Forgot password to set a new one. Your balance and history are still there.
Where are my old orders and cash-outs?
Your orders from the last 5 years are under My Orders. Cash-outs the old site sent are listed in your Wallet under “Cash-outs on the old Snagshout”, and they're included in Total Paid Out.
How do I change my account email?
Go to Settings → Email and enter your password. We email a link to your current address; open it and press Approve. You're then signed out everywhere and sign in with the new email. Shoppers can't cash out for 72 hours after the email changes. If you can't get email at your current address any more, tap Message support.

Finding and snagging deals

How do I find deals?
Go to Deals. You can search by product name and sort by Newest, Ending Soon or Most Popular. New deals are added all the time, so check back often.
How do I snag a deal?
Open a deal and press Snag. What happens next depends on the deal:
  • Coupon deals show you a code to use at checkout on Amazon. That's it. The discount is the deal.
  • Rebate (cash back) deals give you a button to the product on Amazon. Buy it at the normal price, send us your Amazon order confirmation, and we pay you the cash back.
Sometimes the button opens an Amazon search, not the product.
That's on purpose for some deals. Find the exact product shown on the deal page in the search results and buy that one.
How many deals can I snag?
Between 5 and 10 deals in any 24 hours (most shoppers start at 5). The counter on the Deals and My Orders pages shows how many you have left and when the next one frees up. You can snag each deal once. If your snag expired before you sent a receipt, you can snag that deal again while it still has spots. There's no weekly limit.
Is it only Amazon?
Almost every deal is for a product on Amazon. Snagshout isn't connected to your Amazon account. You buy on Amazon as you normally would.
Do I have to write a review?
Not for Amazon products. Amazon reviews are never required or rewarded: you may be asked for an honest review, but it's optional and never affects your cashback. Some cash back deals for products sold on other stores ask for an honest review, and the deal says so before you snag it. Some deals include a short survey or photo for the brand, which stays between you and them.
Can I get cash back on the same product twice?
No. You can get cash back once per product, ever, even through a different deal, and that includes orders on the old site. The site won't let you snag a product you already got cash back for. Coupon deals don't count.

Buying and sending your receipt

How do I send my Amazon order?
After you buy, forward Amazon's order confirmation email to the address shown on your order. It looks like rebates+…@in.snagshout.com and is unique to that order, so we match it automatically. Forward it as soon as you've ordered. The order page shows a countdown.
Forwarding isn't working.
Open the order and upload a screenshot of your Amazon order instead (JPG, PNG or PDF, up to 10MB). Add your Amazon order number in the notes box. A person reviews uploads, so they can take a little longer.
The deal asks for a survey, photo or video.
Some deals have an extra step for the brand. You'll see it on the order page. Complete it there. Your cash back is approved after both the receipt and the step are done.
When do I have to finish the extra step?
The order page shows the date (“Finish steps by”). It's the deal's own date or 30 days after your receipt came in, whichever is later. We email reminders before it. After that the order doesn't expire, but the brand may reject it.
A deal I snagged expired.
Each order gives you a set time to buy and send your receipt. If it passes with nothing sent, the order expires and the spot goes to someone else. You can snag the deal again while it still has spots. If you did buy the product in time, contact support (snagshout.com/support) with your order and Amazon order number.
I returned the product.
Open the order and use “Report a problem” → “I returned this item”. The order closes as Returned and no cash back is paid. If you keep the product, finish the deal's steps so the cash back can be approved.

Getting paid

When do I get my cash back?
After you send your receipt (and any extra step), the brand reviews it. Many orders are approved quickly, but it can take up to 35 days. Once approved, the money moves from Pending to Available in your Wallet.
How do I cash out?
Press Cash Out in your Wallet and choose:
  • Card: no fee, $5 minimum. We email you a link where you choose a Virtual Visa, an Amazon gift card or one of 600+ other gift cards.
  • PayPal: 5% fee, $30 minimum. We email you a link to claim it to your PayPal account.

Each cash-out is up to $500, and up to $500 in any 24 hours; the rest stays in your Wallet for later. Over $200, we text you a code first.

Is there a limit on cash-outs?
Yes. Up to $500 per cash-out and $500 in any 24 hours. The oldest approved cash back goes first and the rest stays in your Wallet, which shows how much you can cash out now and when more frees up. Any cash-out over $200 needs a fresh text code to your phone. Cash-outs are sent through our partner Tremendous to your account email only; we can’t send them to another address. There is no bank transfer, Zelle or Venmo.
Why do I need to verify my phone?
To cash out, we text a one-time code to your mobile number. It stops bots and duplicate accounts. We may ask you to check it again from time to time. VoIP and landline numbers aren't accepted.
How do I change my phone number?
Go to Settings → Phone → Change number. We email a link to your account email first; open it while signed in and press Continue, then enter the new number and the code we text to it. After a change, cash-out is closed for 72 hours.
My cash-out says Queued.
It will go out automatically. Nothing is lost, and you don't need to request it again. Check your email (and spam folder) for the link.
Does cash back expire?
Under our Terms, cash back left in the wallet for 12 months after it became available expires and can’t be reinstated. We recommend cashing out once you reach the minimum.
A brand questioned my order.
Brands can't reject your cash back on their own. Our support team reviews it. If we need a clearer receipt or photo, we'll tell you exactly what to fix and you'll have 7 days to send it.

Staying safe

Is Snagshout hiring? Someone offered me a Snagshout job.
No. Snagshout does not offer jobs, paid tasks or an employee login, and we never ask you to pay or send crypto. Sites like snagshout-us.net and snagshout-us.cc are fake. See our scam warning.

For brands

How do brands use Snagshout?
Brands run deals on their products: a coupon code, or cash back that shoppers get after they buy and send their receipt. You create a brand account, add your product, set the deal, and publish it. See Snagshout for brands.
What plans and fees are there?
Four plans:
  • Pay As You Go: no monthly fee. No monthly fee — pay per redemption.
  • Starter: $99/month. Free coupon snags, discounted action fees.
  • Pro: $199/month. For brands running campaigns every month.
  • Elite: $299/month. Lowest fees for high-volume sellers.

Each cash back redemption costs the cash back you fund, plus a 5% card fee on it, plus your plan’s fee per redemption. The full fee table and a calculator are on Pricing. Paid plans from the old site keep their old pricing.

How does billing work?
Each day, a live deal places a card hold for the snags we expect. The next day we charge for the snags that really happened and release the rest: one charge per deal per day. A pending amount that went away was a hold that was released. The plan fee is a separate charge at the start of each plan period. Monthly statements are under Billing → Statements.
My payment failed and my deals paused.
When a card charge fails, your live deals pause and we email you. Update the payment method in Billing, then resume the deals.
How do I pause a deal?
Dashboard → Campaigns → open the deal → Pause. Resume starts it again. While it is paused nobody can snag it; orders already snagged carry on and you still review them. Out of stock? Pause it now.
How do I approve or dispute an order?
Open the order and approve it, or raise a question (a dispute). You can't reject an order on your own: our team decides disputed orders. If you say an order was cancelled, refunded or returned, send a screenshot from your seller account showing the order number and the refund or cancellation. Orders you don't review are approved automatically after 35 days.
How do I run an old deal again?
Open the old campaign and press Relaunch. The builder opens filled in; nothing goes live until you press Publish.
How far back can I see orders and statements?
Your dashboard shows the last 2 years of orders, order chats, statements, charges and totals.
I think a charge is wrong.
Tap Message support with the date and amount and our team will check it. Under our Terms, a refund, credit or overcharge claim must reach us in writing within 6 months of the charge.
Can my deal ask for a review?
Amazon reviews are never required or rewarded. You may ask for an optional, honest review. A deal for a product sold on another store may ask for an honest review, and it must say so before the shopper snags it. A deal can't require a positive review or tie cash back to the rating.
Can I snag deals with my brand account?
No. Brand accounts can't snag deals.
