Earn Free Gift Cards While Christmas Shopping
So have you officially started your Christmas shopping?
Before you go checking more gifts off your list, take a minute to sign up with Shopkick so you can get rewarded this holiday season! It’s so easy to earn free gift cards while Christmas shopping!
Here’s how you can treat yourself with free gift cards…
What is Shopkick?
So what is Shopkick? It’s simple!
Shopkick is a fun and easy way to score free gift cards for the shopping you already do – online and in-store! Just get the app, walk into stores, scan items, and submit your receipts!
Don’t forget to link your card and earn even more kicks. Then you can redeem your kicks for different rewards!
Talk about easy, right?
How Does Shopkick Work?
Shopkick uses their own currency, referred to as “kicks.” Kicks are simply the in-app currency of reward points. For reference, 250 kicks = $1.00.
You can earn kicks online, or for performing in store actions, like walking into stores, scanning items, and purchasing products.
When shopping online, you will earn kicks for every $1 spent. Then… you can redeem your kicks for Free digital gift cards!
Gift card redemptions start at 500 kicks, but minimum amounts differ from various retailers.
Most Shopkickers can earn enough kicks for a gift card in a week! Plus, you will LOVE the exciting selection of Free Gift Cards you can choose from!
There are over 40 gift card options, including some of my favorites: PayPal, Amazon, Target, Walmart, and Starbucks!
So are you ready to get paid for the shopping you already do, both in-store and online?

Different Ways to Earn Kicks:
It’s easy to earn kicks using the App, whether shopping in a store or online… and you can even earn kicks completely purchase-free!
When shopping at a participating store, simply enable your smartphone bluetooth to earn passive kicks.
Then… add a fun scavenger hunt-esque element to your normal shopping trip when you “scan” featured items using your smartphone camera to earn kicks for every scan completely purchase-free.
Another way to earn kicks purchase-free is to score hidden kicks in the App. Just select the “Discover” tab in the App, and read different articles or watch videos daily to find hidden kicks.
To supercharge your kicks earnings you can also purchase featured items in-store, then take a photo of your receipt to submit for even more kicks.
For example, you can scan an item in-store for 25 kicks (purchase-free) and also purchase a featured item to earn 250 more kicks all on the same visit to a store.
Another smart way to earn kicks while shopping in-store is to link your debit or credit card securely in the App.
Then use your linked card to pay at participating retailers to earn kicks for every dollar you spend! If paying with a debit card, just make sure to run your debit card as “Credit” during checkout.
Do you want to make earning kicks even easier? One of the best ways to earn kicks is to simply shop online from the comfort of your own home.
Just load up the Shopkick App, select the “Online” tab and shop at participating stores online to earn kicks for every dollar you spend!

What a great app, although I don’t think it works over in the UK, sadly. I have something similar with a Nectar card when I go shopping at certain stores – the points really do add up, it’s so useful at this time of year!
That’s great to hear you have a similar style of program in the UK, Lisa! It is definitely nice to get rewarded for shopping this time of year!
Thanks so much for introducing us to Shopkicks. Going to get going on this straight away. Wish we knew about this sooner. Love all the participating stores too.
You’re very welcome! They really do have so many participating stores to get rewarded for shopping at!

Right? We could all use FREE groceries!! 🙂
