What Fetch Rewards Does
Fetch Rewards is a free lifestyle app that turns everyday shopping into a point-earning activity. Take a photo of your purchase receipt from popular retailers — such as Amazon, Walmart, or Target — and the app awards points for qualifying purchases. Accumulated points are exchanged for gift cards you can spend at many restaurants and stores.
How Redemption Works (Cash vs. Gift Cards)
Fetch does not convert points directly into cash. Instead, you redeem points for gift cards from a variety of merchants. As a ballpark figure, about 3,000 points equals roughly $3 in reward value. If you prefer a broader spending option, Fetch also allows redemption into prepaid Visa or Mastercard gift cards.
Installing the App and Uploading Receipts
- Download the app to your phone at no charge and sign up.
- Use the built-in receipt scanner to photograph paper receipts or upload e-receipts from online orders.
- No extra activation steps are required — scan and your points are recorded.
The interface is designed to be simple and intuitive so capturing receipts is quick and straightforward.
Accepted Stores and Purchase Types
Fetch accepts receipts from a wide range of sellers and purchase channels across the United States, including:
- Liquor stores
- Wholesalers
- Supermarkets
- Convenience stores
- Grocery stores
It supports both physical in-store receipts and digital/online order receipts.
Helpful Features and Compatibility
- The scanner works with both photographed receipts and emailed/digital receipts.
- It can also accept scans you’ve already submitted through other receipt apps, letting you stack rewards in some cases.
- A broad network of brand and retail partners increases the chance of finding point-eligible items.
Social Tools and Extra Ways to Earn
Fetch includes social and promotional options to boost your points:
- Invite friends for bonus points and join monthly points challenges with your network.
- Fetch Social lets you view friends’ receipt activity and swap deals.
- Browse hundreds of brand promotions and join free Fetch Clubs to access exclusive offers and insights.
You’ll also typically receive a points bonus for submitting your first receipt.
Bottom Line
Fetch Rewards makes it possible to extract extra value from your shopping receipts by converting purchases into points redeemable for gift cards. It may take many receipts to earn larger rewards, but the app offers several ways to accelerate earnings — from partner promotions to social bonuses — making it worthwhile for frequent shoppers.
