It's quick, easy and i get money back on things i would purchase anyway! I have received several checks from them. The only thing that would make it better is to have the choice to save up to 50.00 before getting your check instead of 20.00.

When I Remember
May 2, 2016

I do almost all shopping online in order to receive the best price. Having used this site for approximately 6 months, overall, I'm pretty satisfied. My major problem, is my own problem, because at times, I just forget to order through the site. I've already received my first check, and I'm looking forward to additional checks in the near future. Again, overall, I'm satisfied, since I love to shop and get paid for it.

Great until lately
October 3, 2016

I have had a good experience with Shop At Home until lately. I have received a couple of checks in the mail and was happy. Recently, for some reason, the purchases I made did not show up for cash back. I have submitted missing cash back reports on the purchases per the instructions from Customer Service. So far I have been notified that two of them are being credited to my cash back. I am patiently waiting to hear a response on the others ones I submitted. I am not sure what happened or if I am doing something wrong as before it was just working perfectly. I have always received a response to my emails within a few days. I am hoping for a solution soon and if I am not doing something right that they can tell me what to change in how I shopped for those orders.

There's nothing to lose.
November 1, 2016

Their check mailing schedule is a little confusing, but you get money here and there. Just be sure to shop through the site. It's not like you're paying for it; you're not buying from them. You get back some of the the money you're gonna spend anyway. Shop, and forget about it - surprise in the mail.

I used to us another cash back site but when I found that ShopAtHome offered a 110% price match guarantee with that site and others I was convinced that SAH was the best bet! I also touted this guarantee to many friends.

Alas, there is no more price matching. While I do still use SAH, I am careful to check other cash back sites to see who offers the best deal.

I have never had any problem with getting my money from SAH. Their customer service is a little slow to respond, but they do respond and I appreciate that.

Feels like a scam
February 6, 2017

This is my first time I am using shopathome and I had made purchases for black friday last year. My account was showing that money was supposed to be sent on 1/31 and on 02/02, my account balance went to 0. I checked my paypal account and I dont not see any money transferred from shopathome. I have sent 3 emails to their customer service and have a ticket open but I get only a standard answer that they have transferred the money and I should contact paypal. They would not provide any transaction id or any other information, which should be given if they had really credited my paypal account. I have contacted paypal and they do not see any incoming transaction from shopathome. This leads me to feel and think that this is just a scam. I have used other cashback sites like ebates and have had positive experiences. I would advise others to stay away from shopathome

I had two large click thrus that I made sure were done properly for Vividseats, and shopathome.com refused to credit me for either of them. And provided 0 evidence of why I shouldn't have received it.

SCAM... BEWARE
November 6, 2018

SCAM... SCAM... SCAM! I am an avid online shopper/rebate getter, and I have been clicking on SHOP AT HOME's button for over a year. Last month, I got tired of not seeing my rebates, so I complained. My compensation...$. 12.

I have removed this from my computer and will be sure to tell EVERYONE I know... Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Email... You name it, I will put it up there.

BEWARE! BEWARE! BEWARE!

Awful!
November 23, 2013

Awful! Have been using them for years but I have finally had enough! So many of my purchases do not get credited to my account. I've had to fill out their, very lengthy, missing cash back form too many times. Today will be the last time! There is another cash back site that works much better, smoothly and I have never had a problem, ever. Do your research on cash back sites before you pick one to use

I received cash back for my first 2 small purchases (about $7 total). However, I made several follow-on purchases thru this site and received nothing - one of the cash backs should have been $25. All of the purchases were made 2 months ago. So I go to file an inquiry request and find out that there are no track back numbers for my transactions, so I can't file an inquiry as this info is required for the form to be submitted. I can't find any other way to contact this site. I don't know what their problem is, at least a very poorly run website, maybe more. I will never use their site again. Fatwallet and ebates are 100% reliable and you get the cash back % they advertise.

Yes, they pay your real cash back but their cash back system is not reliable. About 30 % of websites they advertised, won't pay you cash back as promised. You have to wait until 30 days if no cash back show up then you can send cash back inquiry, asked them to investigate. They never ever responded and resolved problem! You will only received automatically responded email. That's it.

I lost my eligible cash back more than $20 from 3 websites so far. I do online shopping almost everyday and experienced many cash back websites. I would recommended "Fatwallet" or "eBates" which are more reliable and great customer service.

SCAM
June 23, 2015

After having had some success with the site, I decided to make a sizable purchase through the site from Musicians Friend, and all of a sudden they claimed that the merchant did not credit shop at home for the traffic. I have made a habit to have nothing else open as I use this site to avoid this but all in all, my purchase qualified me for nearly $200 cash back and they just wanted to find a way around paying up.

I do manage to get a check every time that one should be cut, however it is usually not for what it should be, It is like playing a crap shoot, in that sometimes you get what you should, and sometimes not. Much like many of the reviews I've read I'd call customer service and also write but to no satisfaction. I found that it is not worth the time and trouble, I guess that as a rule I end up with more than I would have, had I not gone on your site at all. That being said, It still does not say much for your business practices.

Hit and Miss
July 26, 2016

I have used shop at home for years, but lately I never get paid for my purchases and my emails go on with no response. I would recommend using another website that is going to do as they promise. Shop at home definitely not doing that. Poor customer service!

I purchased a dishwasher from Sears through Shopathome when they were having a promotion of 20% cashback on all purchases through Sears, which would have equated to about $120 cashback! Guess what, cash back never showed up. I emailed their customer service numerous times without ever getting a response. SCAM. Will be taking my business to another affiliate website like Fatwallet. Much more reputable.

ShopAtHome is scamming me as well; getting $0.02 credit for an $8.00 credit item because I clicked in the wrong place an the advertisement; don't understand this at all. Others I am receiving zero credit and receiving no response to my e-mails other than the first "we'll look into it" but I never receive that followup resolution.

There are a lot better and honest sites out there.

In the 1yr we've been using SAH for our online purchases, my family & I have saved between $100-$150, in the form of checks sent quarterly based on purchases made the prior 90 days. It's the simplest thing in the world: sign up, visit SAH before making an online purchase, click through their link and you will earn a certain percentage (0.5% - 12%+) of your total pre-tax purchase price.

Grimy Toolbar Scheme
October 17, 2015

Scam for sure. Depending on your luck that day, you may or may not receive your cash back. And the invasive toolbar is definitely a way in which the company shopathome.com makes money. The coupons are not as good as RetailMeNot, and the cash back is not as high as Ebates or FatWallet, or even BeFrugal.

They also host "seasonal" pages and campaigns that feature coupons completely irrelevant to the "seasonal" campaign. For instance, right now there is a Horchow flatware coupon for their Halloween promotion...

The $5 cash back bonus was not paid for 2 of mine and inquiries were not answered. Large purchases seem to be 'overlooked' and you don't get your cashback, although the small ones are quickly processed. Also, you never get emails indicating that your purchase earned cashback, you have to look it up on their site. I went back to Ebates for most of my purchases lately.
Subsequent to this review, I got two form letters and a request for my receipt, which I furnished. It has not been resolved. Again... not worth the effort for this site. Use a tried and true rebate sight instead.

Hello Ellen, Thanks for the Feedback. I am seeing that our Customer Service Team has not denied Cash Back on your 2 recent purchases. Many stores report qualified orders within 1-2 business days; however, it can take up to 30 days depending on the store and how they report orders to us. Cash back is credited to your account once the store credits your order to ShopAtHome.com. I will have someone from our Customer Service Team reach out to you today. Thanks for shopping with us!

Overview

ShopAtHome has a rating of 3.1 stars from 186 reviews, indicating that most customers are generally satisfied with their purchases. Reviewers satisfied with ShopAtHome most frequently mention customer service and online shopping. ShopAtHome ranks 3rd among Restaurant Discounts sites.
