Upside

Post by Turkeytop » Mon Jun 12, 2023 11:00 pm

What's this Upside? I Hear it advertised on the radio. It's some kind of a ap, they say pays cash back every time you use it to buy gas.

What's the catch? They aren't just giving away cash out of a snese of benevolence. They're making money off it somehow. What is it?


I started out with nothing and I still have most of it.

They make money by selling info about you. Just like any other "free" app.

Sounds like GasBuddy. You get cents off per gallon/liter.

Down side is you need to give them your bank info.

I save more per gallon using a cash back credit card.
