Making extra cash from 'No Purchase Offers'
Taking up No Purchase Offers is a free and simple way of boosting your cashback balances by £50 and more. They are 'one-time' offers and include:
- Signing up for e-mail newsletters from a specific company
- Signing up to competition/offers sites
- Getting quotes for insurance
- Registering on survey sites
- Registering for free on dating sites
- Requesting brochures.
What you choose to do after signing up to these offers is up to you.
There are currently around 150 No Purchase Offers across all the cashback sites featured here. See the comparison table below for just a small selection
of these risk-free cashback offers.
Also, new offers are added to cashback sites regularly and so there are always opportunities to earn more cash this way.
Different cashback sites have different names for No Purchase Offers so also look out for categories called Easy Cash/Points, Fast Cash, Free Cash/Stuff/Points, Freebies or Quick Points.
Is it really that easy?
Yes, it is! Put simply, in today's highly competitive world, some sites are willing to pay for the exposure and new referrals that affiliates such as cashback sites can give them. Even if just a small amount of these referrals become active participants or buyers then it's probably worth it to them. And that's great news for you!
In one respect such sites are paying commission to cashback sites (meaning cashback to you!) for the opportunity to email you and try to grab your attention. Therefore, you will receive a lot of email from these 'No purchase offer' sites and some 'spam' from their partner sites.
However, you can easily sidestep this by setting up a free webmail account from a provider such as Hotmail, Yahoo etc and using this email address when you sign up for these offers. You don't have to use the same email address that you used to sign up to the cashback sites. Alternatively, you may have a spare email account from your ISP that you could set up to use for your cashback activities.
••• Names of cashback sites have been abbreviated in the table below but if you
hover your mouse over the abbreviation the full name will appear.
You can visit each of the cashback sites by clicking on the links on the Site comparisons pages.
••• Hover your mouse over a No Purchase Offer and further information about conditions of the cashback offer will appear.
As with other cashback offers, conditions are detailed on each individual cashback site so they are only shown here to demonstrate the ease with
which you can make extra cashback.
A final bit of advice
Do the Clash Draw and Win an iPod/Wimbledon tickets/£100,000 type of offers last. Many of the offers they ask you to sign-up to, in order to get the cashback, are actually available as cashback offers separately.
