Saving Star is another one of my favorite apps.
You are able to link selected loyalty cards to the app.
If you open up the app and have the register scan the bar code in the Saving Star app you will then receive your offers this way.
But have no fear, If your favorite starts are not in the "selected" grouping of loyalty cards to link up not all is lost. Saving Star still recognizes a wide variety of stores in offering savings.
I have only used Saving Star for redeeming their grocery offers. (They do have online shopping offers. I have yet to explore this option.) Saving Star offers a lot of offers that combine very well with the latest coupons that are released in the Sunday paper. They do have a disclaimer in their "fine print" that this may change at some point, but for now it is possible to coupon paper coupons with their offers. In addition, they offer an occasional limited time only "freebie." They have a new "Healthy Offer" every Tuesday and seems to be normally about 20% back on some type of produce item. Currently it is on apples.
The redemption process is pretty simple. Purchase the item, submit the receipt or use the loyalty link bar card and receive the full purchase price back! When submitting receipts for the offers, items have to be scanned with some exceptions like produce and the receipt is also photographed using the phone. It is possible to verify a product's eligibility before purchasing and I strongly recommend doing this when time and data allows you to do so. A few times, I have grabbed the wrong thing and been a little disappointed once home.
Once you have redeemed and have $5 in your Saving Star account you can request a payout. Payouts can be made to a bank account, PayPal account, UPromise account, Starbucks gift code, iTunes gift code or AMC theaters gift code.
Redemption seems to happen fairly quickly with transactions on linked cards. Filing via a receipt and scanning bar codes seems to take quite a bit longer than it did initially. Partly, I believe due to growing pains and keeping up with the number of people taking advantage of the savings. I haven't had an issue yet and it has been so far so good.
The app works for Iphones and Androids.
