I knwo a lot of us on here use Quidco and when I was on there this morning I saw that they have started doing cash back fro in-store purchases if you give them your card details. Just wondering if anyone had had any experience with it?

THANKS

    Interesting.....

    ...but just how does this work as I assume both Quidco and the merchant have got to pass on credit card details somehow?,

    ..wonders if there is a speical code to use in the store?

    Nope you have to just make sure you use that card instore.
    It tracks the transaction through the card...somewhere you agree to share it obviously.

    ...anyone got any thoughts on how safe this is? I know its common companies store credit card details and they say its safe but it feels like another way someone can get at your details. Or am I just getting old and resistant to change and losing out.

    You only hand over the long number...no exp date or cvv code.

    I do like the idea of Quidco rounding up shopping cashback automatically etc without me having to think about it!
    And Greene King pubs....paid to drink!
