It is actually fun to use the Upside app. Since I buy gas, Upside at least makes it a little fun. Plus, it's always great to receive some cash back as well. I set mine up to deposit into my checking account. Aside from gas ⛽️, Upside can be used at select restaurants and convenience stores. I don't drive as much as I use to drive, so I usually tally up my cash earnings every 3 months or so. If you are one that drives a lot, Upside should be a nice, worthwhile app to have on your phone.

I like the idea of the Upside App and i have accumulated over $70 in savings. You have to double-check the actual pump price to make sure the app is accurate. Thats reasonable as locations change their price almost daily. This week I had a bonus of 15 cents showing on my app. When my purchase cleared the bonus was missing. There doesnt seem to be a way in the app to report such an occurence. Overall i am pleased with the app.

It used to work quite well. They got rid of uploading receipts (love that)! There aren't tons of offers in my area but the gas offer at almost any Circle K was good. For the last few months the app won't load ANY thing. The menu won't even load. I get a message "Unable to load offers- please try again" over and over. I can't even use the cash out option though I've earned about $28 this time I can't access it. 😡
