New: Yelp Cash Back!



Here's an idea for you and it saved me $24. Nice. Yelp.com, the online review site, launched a cash back program in December 2016. Pretty simple concept, link your credit card to the program, use that card at any participating restaurant and Yelp will credit 10% of your bill back to your card.
I was looking for a coupon to use at Mamma Mia's in San Diego this past weekend and stumbled on the program.
So I decided to link my card to see what would happen. It was a birthday dinner so our bill was $260, I charged it to my Starwood American Express Business card (because that is the card I am trying to reach my minimum spend on right now to earn the 35,000 bonus. Even though the incresed bonus offer has ended, it's still my favorite credit card because they points are so versatile) When I checked this morning, Yelp says they will credit my card $24. Wow!




Here are the steps to take: seach for a participating restaurant that offers the cash back program on Yelp.com because we like to very focused and deliberate when deciding which credit card to use where, right? Use the filters to get the list of restaurants. Link your card, very easy took just a minute to do, dine and pay with the linked card and then earn 10% cash back. I never recieved an email informing me that I earned the cash back, but when I logged into my account, it says I earned it and should see the credit by mid-May. I don't worry anymore about my credit card number being compromised because I have all the fraud alerts checked and the credit card companies will not hold you responsible for any charges you did not make.




So guess what? Yep, this is free money. I was going to the restaurant anyway for my daughter's birthday. I was going to charge my Starwood Amex Business card to help me get the bonus points and now I got $24 off my bill.
That's how we do it.
