1 Katie M.  · This is a scam. Once you finally get enough points to cash out, they will decline you for various reasons. Do not give them your data.
5 Maria  · I’ve been using this app since 2023 and have never experienced any issues. I’ve always received my vouchers without any problems.
1 Xenia K.  · This is a scam. Earned a $100 voucher. When I tried to redeem it, my account was inactive.
1 Deborah  · I have put in several tickets because my account was deactivated. I have asked why and have not received a reply.
1 Victor  · Scam. They will not pay out when you try to redeem points.
5 Stuart Kidd  · It's worked well for me and been easy to do. I get my kids on to it after each shop purchase.

I have (had) been a customer since the UnoCart days, using ReceiptJar app for over 6 years. Logged in today to find account has been suspended due to inactivity for longer than 30 days. Received no email notification of account suspension (so who knows when it was suspended) AND ReceiptJar continued to benefit from my receipt data as I continued… Read more

to forward receipts via email. I have lost all accumulated points and level - ReceiptJar’s HelpDesk’s solution is to re-join with a different email account. No, thank you. Considering lodging a complaint with ACCC regarding mishandling of consumer data, and inadequate notice given of account suspension.

Waste of time. For those who want to patiently wait a year to build the points to get a meaningful payout will be disappointed when they suspend your account for abusing their terms & conditions. I received a couple payouts and the most recent redemption was flagged and my account suspended. Nothing in my behavior has changed and I abide by their… Read more

terms and conditions. They allow receipts from your spouse and underage children in the house. Anything else is considered work, friend, or extended family related. Not sure how they be a tell the difference if you scanned your spouses receipt or a cousin??? This company has a common theme with complaints and my complaint is backed by hundreds of other complaints. Can be easily verified with a simple Google Search for “Receipt Jar reviews.” I wouldn’t waste my time with this company as there are several other receipt scanning apps.

Suspended after trying to cash out $50. They take your data then don't pay out the points you've earned. Just look at Reddit, TrustPilot, here and many other sites of all the false bans on accounts. They're an unethical company and should be held accountable for what they are doing.

Receipt Jar is garbage they banned my account after two months of submitting receipts for a pathetic $10 payout saying the receipts were not mine when they were. Then when I asked for their proof because I didn’t believe them and how they knew the recipients were not mine and they provided nothing after multiple requests. They just made that up… Read more

and wasted my time so they didn’t have to pay out. I provided all the same receipts I did to ReceiptJar to other receipt apps like Fetch, Receipt Hog, Coinout, Receipt Pal and Swagbucks and none of those had any problem with the same receipts and cashed them out. Receipt Jar is a scam and complete trash don’t waste your time with these crooks!

Updated T&Cs suspends your account after 30 days of inactivity. Inactivity means not scanning an offline receipt. Yet if the account is suspended any online receipts you submit while suspended still counts. I don’t mind losing the points and restarting but you should not be accepting and counting any receipts submitted as points when the account… Read more

is suspended and then resetting it back to 0. Screenshot shows all the receipts that were submitted 1 day prior to me realising the account was suspended.

Accuses users of terms violations even when credit card numbers on every receipt are all the same, mine. This company does this to avoid redemptions and when you complain they just suspend your account. Be sure you read all of the reviews carefully here and on the play store before installing. Beware of this data farming company who doesn't… Read more

operate ethically. Their reply indicates I uploaded receipts with bad backgrounds but the FACT is none of the receipts had backgrounds at all because I zoomed in to fill the screen and "excluded" backgrounds on purpose so that they could not use this excuse. So, their reply and reasoning is nothing but an outright LIE.

Great response to questions – I have had to review my last review of this app. To date, I've had great response to my queries and now, give them a five. Great to use.

Not recommended – IN the last 18 months I have redeemed $220 in gift cards over 5 x transactions - all have gone into a black hole saying "pending". I have now emailed customer support asking what is going on... will keep you posted.

I have been using receipt jar for many years. I'm done after yesterday because when I went in to scan my Starbucks ticket, the company suspended my account for no reason. I sent multiple emails and the id*ots never responded. Shut the whole company down at this point.

 Follow-up  · Receipt Jar in my opinion is a fraudulent company that just wants your confidential information from the surveys you have to do to participate, and from the Receipts you scan because my account was never reactived, they never sent me the Amazon card I redeemed my points for, I had 200 plus shakes to still use, and thousands of points to still… Read more

I would give zero stars if I could. I've had my account for over a year and I just got deactivated and denied my payout. The reason they gave was that my receipt scans were cluttered and contained other receipts. For reference, I either scan on a… Read more

counter top or another flat surface and I've never scanned more than 1 receipt at a time. They wouldn't reply to my email to show me what they mean so that I could fix the problem.

 Follow-up  · I also wrote a review on the app store and I received a reply from the company that said to reach out to them and they would like to resolve the issue. They lied, they never replied.

This is a scam. I uploaded for more than 2 years. When you are about to redeem your point they will deactivate your account saying, we found fraud activity. They just need the data to sell and profit from that. Don’t waste your time on this.

I have uploaded receipts for months and when I decide to cash in- they would not grant my giftcard becasue I did not respond to an email. Really? this is a scam. Fetch and Coinout are legit. and you get hese "shakes" that mean nothing. Terrible app. Now I know they ever intended to send me the giftcard. Should have read the reviews and talked to people before doing all the work and getting nothing out of it.

I have been uplaoding receipts to receiptjar.com for months. When I went to cash out my $100, they claimed these weren't my receipts. They suspended my account. When I asked them to provide proof, they ignored me. Please help.

Uploaded for about 6+ months, finally got to $5 or $10 - DIDNT CASH OUT. Went on long overseas trip - couldnt open app in UK. Found the account was cancelled - no activity in 4 weeks. They would not entertain getting it back - i broke their terms. Waste of time for all that data. I got lucky at losing a small amount of money and time wasted. Wish I saw these reviews earlier! - I DO NOT RECOMMEND - Show details

Received the following email: "Dear ReceiptJar Member, As part of our ongoing review process, we’ve taken another look at your account activity. Unfortunately, we’ve found that certain submission patterns continue to fall outside of our platform guidelines. Your account was flagged for one or more of the following: Blurry/Unreadable receipts,… Read more

Refund Receipt

What This Means

As this isn’t the first time we’ve identified issues on your account, we’re unable to approve your current redemption request. As a result, your ReceiptJar account has been suspended.

What you can do:

If you believe this decision was made in error or would like to discuss it further, feel free to reply to this email. We’re happy to review your case and provide more clarity.

Thank you for your time with ReceiptJar and for being part of the community.

Best regards,

The ReceiptJar Team"

This was after cashing out points for a $20 Amazon gift card, which their email acknowledgment stated:

"Once your request has been submitted, we will review your receipts before issuing your reward. It can take 5-10 business days to process your redemption depending on your account score. "

Yet their own website states: "It takes around 5 business days to process redemption. During the 5 days, our team will review your account and check that the majority of your receipts are valid, and your referrals are legitimate."

The app has already scanned and approved all these receipts.

In a email from June 3 I told them:

"You need to check your app's coding.

It has been randomly rotating images taken of receipts for months!"

The first or second image for random receipts would be rotated from the upright position after the image was taken. There was nothing I could do to fix the issue as it was all due to the app.

They responded not by fixing the issue but the following generic reply:

"Hi,

Thank you for sharing this feedback.

If you encounter this camera issue again in the future, please don't hesitate to reach out to our Support team so we can assist you and investigate the matter.

As mentioned, when uploading receipts, please ensure the images are clear and meet the following criteria:

Clear, upright, and well-lit Placed on a plain background with no other receipts in the image Showing all key details: store name, date/time, item names with their amounts, and the total

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.️

Best Regards,

Gisele ReceiptJar Support"

Do NOT use this app. I cashed out at $50 and received an email that my account was deactivated for abusing their terms but submitting duplicate receipt. Which I did not! What a SCAM!!!

I spent 2½ years uploading receipts on ReceiptJar, finally reached $100 and tried to cash out. As soon as I did, they emailed me with some nonsense reason to suspend my account so they didn’t have to pay. After this happened, I looked up reviews and saw plenty of people had the same experience. It feels like they make you wait till you cash out just to deny your reward at the end. Save yourself the time and frustration – avoid this app.

Suspended my account after I requested a $10 and requests to pay me. I've emailed multiple times about an appeal and details of the suspension and nothing. Very shady behavior and it seems like it's a common occurrence. Will not pay you. Get CoinOut instead.

They have suspended my son's account, accusing him of having two accounts which is not true. They have now also suspended my account, giving the same reason! This is unbelievable! All efforts gone to waste! Please stay away from this app and let as many people know as possible! A total waste of time!

Took 2 1/2 years to build up enough points for $100 voucher. Upon claiming it was declined as I had been travelling and didn't use the app for 30 days. They took all 19000 points and gave me nothing. Happy to collect all of your data and sell it for profit but won't pass that profit on to you. Customer service said they wanted to help to a public forum but in emails was pretty much 'too bad this is our policy'. SCAM SCAM SCAM

Please refrain from using this app. I was overseas for a family emergency. They suspended my account and for more than $100 in gift cards. Savings always help. It is fraudulent and unethical experience. I would never recommend this app and will not use this app again.

DO NOT USE THIS APP – I try to redeem for $50. It's still pending. Then the support sent an email to tell me your account is not active when my account still active and they said cannot give you voucher, what a [Content Removed] app and took me so long to get $50 but they won’t give to you, don’t ever use it.

Great – Great app, easy to use. They do pay you, it’s not a lot but it’s worth it to download this app as you make some money and it’s a place to upload your receipts if you want to look back on your purchases.

Fake Terrible – Waste of time. I redeem it for $50. It's still pending. I received an email that I had submitted a fake receipt. They took all the points and left it with pending.

Scam. Use another company that will take your points. Too bad if you go away for a month as these creeps will take the lot and close your account.
