Rakuten UK referral: spend £50, get £25 cashback
Shopping anyway? Route it through Rakuten. Join Rakuten UK via the referral link, spend £50 (exc. VAT) across eligible brands — Amazon excluded — within 90 days of joining, and £25 cashback is yours once the spend tracks and is approved. The £50 can be split across multiple purchases and brands, which keeps things flexible. Mind the tripwires, though: cancelled, returned, untracked or ineligible purchases don't count, and neither do unapproved voucher codes. Start from a clean browser session and click through from Rakuten right before you buy.

Whatnot
Fancy a dabble in live shopping? Open a new Whatnot buyer account through invite jimbb, verify your phone number, and a randomly determined £10–£200 promotional credit lands in your account — the exact amount is revealed during sign-up, so it's a proper lucky dip. The credit only covers the eligible order subtotal: shipping, fees and taxes still come out of your pocket, and it has no cash value. Two things to know: it only works with sellers transacting in GBP, and it expires 90 days after issue. And a word of caution — live auctions are brilliant at parting you from your money, so set a firm total budget before you join a show.
Requirement: No minimum order value; credit covers the eligible order subtotal only, not shipping, fees or taxes

ero by EarnOS
New on the block: ero, the rewards app by EarnOS. Sign up with referral code ejsmci5l55 and every reward you earn in your first 24 hours gets a 50% boost — a multiplier on what you earn, not a flat sign-up payment. Work through brand missions, Connect actions and partner offers that take your fancy, paid in dollar-denominated rewards. Eyes open, though: mission supply and base values shift all the time, some tasks want you to link third-party accounts or install apps, and using the card or withdrawing may need identity verification. Rewards are dollar-denominated (USDC is possible), so conversion spreads and fees apply. Genuine activity only — bots, spam and duplicate accounts get rewards cancelled.
Requirement: No purchase required to join; complete eligible missions during the first 24 hours to benefit from the 50% boost
Easy5-10 minutes to join; missions varyPayout Eligible mission rewards credit to the ero wallet after completion

Quidco
Quidco keeps the bar low: join through the referral link, earn £5 of confirmed cashback through your shopping, and a £10 bonus unlocks. The catch is that word confirmed — pending, declined and returned purchases don't count, and confirmation can take weeks. For tracking that actually tracks: click through from Quidco right before checkout, keep cookies enabled, and avoid unapproved voucher codes. Once the £10 lands, shopping cashback stacks on top. Joining is free.
