Earn cashback every time you shop online!

All you need to do in order to take advantage is:

• Create your FREE SterlingCashback account
• Make sure to login and click on our links before visiting the shops
• Buy from the retailer as usual
• The retailer confirms the sale and arranges payment

When you shop online and click the link for shops or retailers from a website, it is likely that they are getting commission for introducing you to the retailer. This does not affect the price you pay for your online shopping as the money will come out of the retailer’s marketing budget.

Online shops spend millions of pounds a year paying commissions, and websites earn millions a year in this referral commission. Instead of keeping this commission Sterling Cashback. shares a major chunk of this with you by paying you a cash back reward.
