  • noted and thank's for your reminder @MollyR , I'll keep it mind for sure :)
  • Has anyone tried getting gift cards directly from hideout &/or worked out if the points exchange rate is better/worse than other sites? https://hideout.co/rewards_giftcards.php

    Hadn't seen those were there but I reckon it's cheaper to redeem directly at Hideout, although it's a shame they don't have PayPal. Of course it's much better than redeeming via Swagbucks but also a bit cheaper than at Keep Rewarding.
    At Keep Rewarding, if you want to redeem for £10 Amazon you need 1395 points. By my calculations that's about 15,695 Hideout points. (1125 per hundred x 13.95.)
    The rewards area at Hideout doesn't seem to show exactly £10 Amazon on that slider but £1 = 1492, so that would be a max of 14,920.
    And just for the record, if I'm right in thinking that 27 points = 1 SB: 27 x 1300 SB (the amount for £10 Amazon) = a whopping 35,100 Hideout points needed there!

    Actually though, it could even be slightly cheaper at Keep Rewarding than Hideout if you use the bonuses well.
    You get 15 points bonus for earning 200 points in a day at KR, so you could get that seven times on your way to £10 Amazon. That's 105 points, so $1.05, which pays for the difference.

    The rewards for £10 is 14916 points.  I don't think any of them are particularly good value.

    I know what you mean but I think as far as redemption options go, the ones at Keep Rewarding and the Hideout site are probably about as good as you can get. It's just that Hideout isn't a big earner and if you're getting much more than 5 quid a month with it you're probably doing well - but of course it's basically passive income and all adds up, and you can do likewise with Loot at the same time.
