Fetch

Turn everyday receipts into gift card rewards

Fetch is a free shopping rewards app built around a simple idea: keep your receipts, scan them, and collect points that can later be exchanged for gift cards. It works with both in-store and online purchases, so it can fit into normal shopping habits without asking you to change where you buy.

Using Fetch is straightforward. After shopping, you take a photo of a paper receipt with the built-in receipt scanner, or submit an e-receipt through the app. The app accepts receipts from many types of US stores, including grocery stores, convenience stores, supermarkets, wholesalers, liquor stores, and major retailers such as Walmart, Target, and Amazon. There is no need to activate specific offers before every trip, which makes it easier for casual users.

The reward system is based on points rather than direct cash. Around 3,000 points equals about $3 in redemption value, and rewards are typically claimed as gift cards for stores and restaurants. If you prefer more flexible options, Mastercard or Visa gift cards are also available. This is useful, but it is important to set expectations: Fetch is not a fast way to make money, and it can take many receipts to reach a worthwhile reward.

Fetch also includes extra ways to earn. Brand offers can help boost points, while referrals, monthly challenges, Fetch Social, and Fetch Clubs add a more social and deal-focused layer. These features are best for shoppers who enjoy checking offers before buying and sharing savings activity with friends.

The main drawbacks are clear. Fetch is limited to the United States, and users looking for cash payouts may be disappointed. Still, for people who already shop regularly and do not mind scanning receipts, Fetch is an easy, low-effort way to turn routine purchases into occasional gift card rewards.
