Our Verdict
These being worth doing will depend on your circumstances.
Hat tip to John R
I also recieved the $147 targeted offer. When checking out, I used Cap55 which was advertised when clicking through the link. During checkout, capitalone seemed to remove the code in order to test other coupons. They were only 30% off vs 55%. I favored the higher discount but afraid it may not track as a result. It’s been 24 hours and no update from Capital one yet. Hoping to see an update within the next day or two.
Consumer Cellular also shows $62 cash back right now, for a phone plan with an advertised price of $20/month
Hard credit pull though
$35 cash back for the Famer’s Dog tracked pretty quickly. Originally it was $25 cash back, while on the site, popup shows $35 cash back. $14mm.
Got $147 targeted email for spot and tango.
$28 Order for the 2-week trial. The terms: Exclusions Apply:Only eligible on new trial signups. Payout should be Feb 5. I rescheduled the upcoming delivery so it’s charged and delivered AFTER Feb 5. I also used a single-use virtual card. $119 MM if it works.
I have had very little success with Capital shopping tracking my purchases. Their customer service is very good though; unless its worth your while to screenshot everything and submit proof for all your purchases, save your time and $
If you’re doing Capital One *Offers* (not Shopping), customer service is nonexistent. C1 Offers has no direct phone number, so you have to call the bank, and they have no idea what C1 Offers even is, and, and they just keep rerouting you from one department to another for an hour or so before promising to “investigate further” and hanging up.
By default, the offers are linked to your credit card. Call the phone number for credit card, then ask them to transfer you to the Exclusive Products Servicing Rewards department. I did this before and was able to get a missing cashback issue resolved.

Yes, I’ve done that, but it only works if you have a C1 CC. I have deposit accounts with them but no CC, and I’ve basically been told I’m SOL.
Nothing tracks
They removed Walmart as a redemption option again? Definitely not worth it to me considering there is also risk the offers do not properly track.
given the emergent scandal with Honey right now I kinda wonder if CapitalOne Shopping is long for this world.
I hope not. I’ve had the C1S extension installed in an unused browser for the $45 bonus and haven’t had issues with tracking to other cash back sites when using the same browser. If it was like Honey I wouldn’t expect those other cash back sites to track, but they are, for now.
I don’t get the “scandal.” Obviously, browser extensions exist to steal commissions. Everyone has known this for approximately ever. That’s why you only install the extension on the browser you’re planning to use exclusively for Honey/Cap1/etc.
Regardless on how actually scandolous it is, if the class action lawsuit against honey is successful, expect changes for all cashback sites.
I for one think it’s from short sighted greedy youtubers that did not do their research when accepting sponsorship money and short sighted emotional viewers upset that a content creator they like is losing money when the viewers will be hurt when cashback sites get hit.
Massive “if”
Attorney Tom made a video very recently to set expectations and said it averages like 2-5 years and he’s not even sure if it’ll class certify since it has an arbitration clause.
I got 16.97 back for farmers dog ($35 offer – 18.03 total cost for smallest plan)
I still haven’t even been credited the sign-up bonus, i doubt any of these will track
