Offer Details

For today and tomorrow, Quidco have another of their bonus cashback promotions running.

You need to activate the offer and the promotion is limited to the first 50,000 members who opt-in.

What shall I spend my £2.50 on?

I won’t try to get anyone too excited about £2.50; for most people this probably isn’t life changing. As these promotions crop up reasonably frequently they add nicely to the Quidco balance. Premium members can withdraw that balance to a number of methods with varying bonuses. We’ve covered Zeek quite a bit, and that gives you a 15% boost to spend on a broad range of gift cards.

Travel related payout options (with Premium member bonus rates) are;

• Uber (4%)
• Evans Cycles (8%) – Ok, I admit that’s a tenuous travel link 😂
• Thomas Cook (5%)

I get that the average InsideFlyer reader probably doesn’t have much interest in package holidays, but I might have a confession on that topic later this year…………

But I don’t need anything

This is often how they get you, isn’t it? You seek out something, anything, to buy to get the £2.50 cashback. I did uncover a fairly risk free option with the last bonus offer, and that was a FairFX currency card.

They offer pre-paid currency cards, with US Dollar, or Euro single currency cards, and an ‘Everywhere’ card that converts from UK pounds at time of purchase. At the minimum level £50 top-up, you’re getting £9.50 + £2.50 bonus cashback. £12 back on a £50 spend (24%) is not a bad return. As I have a couple of trips to Eurozone countries coming up, that worked out well for me. You could probably do a little bit better with regard the exchange rates with a FX fee-free credit card, or Curve, but not 24% better!
