Advantages: Actually pays out, generous amounts.

Disadvantages: None - it's something for nothing,

What a brilliant concept for a website. I found the site through an MSE website and immediately signed up.

The concept is simple. You sign up for an account, you enter your details and that's it. All you have to do then is whenever you go shopping, log in to the website first and follow the links to your favourite online retailer (making sure to turn off things such as private browsing and incognito mode in your browser) The system then tracks your purchase and pays the appropriate cashback to Quidco who track it into your account. Once you reach a set amount you receive a payout. The first £5 you earn each year goes to quidco in order to pay for their site hosting and the like, but the beauty of this means that if you don't earn enough cashback to make the £5 you don't pay anything, and if you do you pay. Think of it as a small tax rather than a payment.

Cashback can be quite generous too. Anywhere between half a percent on some entertainment sites or over £100 on new phone contracts or bank accounts.

Most importantly? The site pays out, unlike so many others out there.

Summary: Sign up, what's the worst it can do!
