Receipt Hog is Closing Down

Money Saving

Saw someone mention on Facebook that Reciept hog is closing and advising people to cash out.

Has anyone else heard of this?

I’ve had a look on the app and a search online and can’t find anything relating to this. (Have asked the person who mentioned it on Facebook but no response yet)

Update: read this for details https://app.receipthog.com/accept_optin

Update again: had this pop up when I went on the app tonight Image

UPDATE: Last date for uploading receipts is 30th September 2020, last date for cashing out is 30th December 2020

lornaae I hope it’s not real, or if it is, it’s only for certain accounts. I will keep an eye out and let you know if I find out anything

lornaae ok I’m a little worried as the app no longer shows up on the App Store. But their parent company/developer, ScoutIt Inc still exists, although they may be going through a change as their existing site took me to another site. Both still do market research/analysis, so no sign of them shutting up shop yet. Will keep looking

Thanks for the update lornaae, ive just had a look at Storewards and it states you can upload receipts that are upto 14 days old, so did those old ones out if you still have them. Looks abit like shopprize where you get points daily just for logging in too, guess it all helps

I saw this on instagram as well. I'm not close to cashing out either so the points will go to waste 😢

I've downloaded the storewards app its very similar to shopprize.

Was wondering if you could upload the same receipts to both the apps? Anyone tried this.

Thanks for posting this. I hadn’t heard they were closing down either, and am nowhere near cash out. I’ll have to check out the other new one that’s been mentioned here and see what it’s like. Hopefully it’ll be quicker than a Receipt Hog was anyway.

MelanieLisa you could get storewards, it looks OK a lot like shopprize. I think snap my eats is the best receipt app you should try it out if you haven't already done so.

You have until the end of September to use and cash out with receipt hog so you could keep uploading receipts until then if you want, you can also download storereward now though
