Upromise: Cash Back Rewards 2.0.1

Upromise is an app that offers cash back shopping and rewards, specifically designed to help you save money for college. When you join, you'll receive a bonus of $5.29, and if you link a 529 college savings plan to your Upromise account, you'll get an additional $25 bonus.

Every month, Upromise awards five lucky members with a free $529 college scholarship.

With Upromise, you can shop online and earn cash back at popular retailers such as Kohl's, Macy's, Home Depot, and more. In addition to the cash back rewards, Upromise provides exclusive coupon codes and promo codes that can help you save up to 60% on your online retail purchases.

Another feature of Upromise is the ability to earn cash back rewards by scanning your store receipts. Whether it's shopping at the mall, running errands at the gas station, or grocery shopping, you can earn cash back bonuses for purchasing featured products or brands. It's a great way to get paid for the shopping you're already doing and eliminates the need to throw away receipts.

Saving for college is effortless with Upromise. Eligible funds in your Upromise account are automatically transferred to your 529 college savings account every month. Watching your college savings grow has never been easier.

The Upromise app provides convenient functionality for members. You can track pending rewards, online store visits, and your total rewards balance right from your phone.

Upromise was founded in 2000 and has helped families save over $1 billion for college. The platform allows members to accrue cash rewards on eligible purchases that are applied to their linked college savings account. Additionally, Upromise awards thousands of dollars in college scholarship money every month.

Upromise is compatible with all 529 college savings plans and is the only rewards service that can be linked to every single 529 savings plan. You can also link ABLE (special needs) plans to the Upromise platform.

Even if you don't have a 529 plan, you can still join Upromise and participate in the rewards program by linking to any U.S. checking or savings account.

There are hundreds of online stores that offer cash back rewards through Upromise. Some popular retailers include Home Depot, Old Navy, Kohl's, Staples, Best Buy, and many more.

Upromise is highly regarded as a simple and effective way to save for college by numerous reputable sources such as Forbes, Clark Howard, The Dough Roller, New York Times, Nerd Wallet, Boston Globe, and U.S. News & World Report.

If you're familiar with other cash back and savings apps like Drop, Rakuten, Swagbucks, and Ibotta, Upromise is similar in concept. You can give it a try and receive a $25 bonus just for linking your 529 savings plan.
