ipoints or mutualpoints?

Which is best and is it just a case of clicking through the site to get your points?

Also because it takes quite a few days for the points to be credited to your account is there any confirmation at time of buying?

  • iPoints has been pretty good for me. I've had over £100 in Argos vouchers in less than a year, they're normally quick enough (but some things take ages!).

    Never tried mutualpoints.

    Yes, you just click the link on the website through to your online shop, then shop as normal. Quidco is better than both ipoints and mutualpoints for the amount of cashback offered, and the transactions show up on your account within a day usually.

    I would still sign up to ipoints and mutualpoints as they both send you emails and you get points for clicking on these, so really easy money. I've found both aren't so good at awarding points, I'm always having to chase up ipoints to get points earned through doing surveys.

    Thanks, Just done some checking and because i use Mysupermarket for my online weekly food shop which only uses ipoints at present this is probably best because its my biggest spend...or am i missing something?:o

    I use them both and recommend that you sign up to both. If you do a lot of shopping online they are great but compare both sites so that you get the best cashback rewards. Both offer free points with daily clicks, surveys and signing up for offers.
    Only disappoint is none of them now offer casback with Amazon.

    I use both (and Rpoints). I would recommend that you set up a separate email address (I use Gmail and Firefox with the Gmail Manager extension) for each one so that you can then sign up for the same free trials through each site ;)
