Cashback giant Quidco is currently offering cashback deals on big supermarket brands including Sainsbury’s, M&S, Tesco and Morrisons, as well as on Hotels.com, Expedia, Lastminute.com, Netflights and On the Beach! breaks
Canny Brits with an eye for a bargain can earn money on everyday purchases thanks to a handy web hack.
Quidco is a cashback platform that is the perfect antidote to the cost of living squeeze. Not only is it incredibly easy to use, you can earn money on everything from your weekly shopping to buying a train ticket or ordering a takeaway.
After signing up for the site for free, the cashback giant gives you a chunk of money back every time you spend with the more than 5,000 retailers on its books.
And now, to make things even simpler, Quidco has a browser extension which makes it easy to save on online purchases, with just one click.
To begin, you just have to install the extension on your browser of choice, whether that be Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge or Safari.
Then, whenever you are looking at an item online which you can claim Quidco cashback on, the extension notifies you so you don’t miss out. The handy tool is optimised for mobile browsing as well as on desktop computers, laptops and iPads.
Here’s what you have to do:
- Sign up to Quidco for free
- Install the extension in your browser
- Browse online and Quidco will remind you to activate the cashback option
- Sit tight while Quidco processes your cashback with the retailer
For more information on how to install the browser extension, click here. However, don’t forget to join by this link afterwards in order to get your special offer.
If you buy groceries through certain shops you could find a sizeable amount of money dropping into your Quidco account later on, whether you are using the browser extension to remind you to claim or simply following the process yourself.
And the best thing is, there are no limits to how much you can earn – although the average active member can earn around £300 a year.
Signing up for a Quidco account is completely free unless you opt for the premium option, which gives you boosted cashback deals and costs just £1 for every month you use it, and costs nothing for every month you don’t. You then have to spend money with any of the retailers on the scheme.
If your first purchase is within 30 days of signing up and is £5 or more, you’ll not only receive cashback on that purchase but also a £15 bonus straight into your Quidco account.
After you have done this you can surf the Quidco website for some of the great deals that are on offer there and – if you buy them through the link provided on the site – you’ll get a chunk of the purchase price back in your account.
The company pays out in cash, but you can maximise your earnings by up to 20% if you agree to take them in gift cards.
What can I buy?
Right now there are hundreds of excellent offers on the Quidco site from a whole range of retailers, so it is definitely worth checking them out. They include:

Fashion fans will be spoiled for choice with big brands such as Nike, ASOS, Dorothy Perkins, New Look, Boohoo, River Island and PrettyLittleThing, while those looking to get away from it all for a while can get money back when booking Hotels.com, Expedia, Lastminute.com, Netflights and On the Beach! breaks.
Customers who download the Quidco app can search by cashback rates and for discounts and vouchers that might work for you, depending on what bargains you’re looking for.
