Our New Favorite App that Literally Gives You Money (Were Serious)
Our New Favorite App that Literally Gives You Money (Were Serious)Our New Favorite App That Literally Gives You Money (Were Serious)Its pretty rare to find an app that actually gives you real money with no strings attached. After all, the money has to come from somewhere. But thanks to an app we recently discovered,Paribus, the moneys coming from online stores and retailers youve recently shopped at. And since partee of our jobs at WayUp is to help students get through college more easily, we had to share this one with you.What is Paribus? After you make your normal online purchases, Paribus tracks when prices on those purchases go down, and then it helps put money back into your pocketno effort required. Seriously, none. Heres a look at how Paribus works.Paribus Tracks Your Receipts To Get You What Youre OwedMany retailers have policies that entitle you to a refund if they later reduce the price of a product youve purchased. But even though retailers routinely do just that, many of us forgo the money were owed because we dont want to jump through the normal hoops required to get that money back. Do you track the prices of every item you buy after you buy them? Probably not. But Paribus does theyll jump through the hoops for youThe algorithm the Paribus team developed (psst theyre hiring) continuously tracks both store policies and online prices after they log your receipt. Then, if the price drops, theyll either get the refund for youwith no extra effort on your partor send you a quick email letting you know how you can easily and simply obtain it for yourself.All youve gotta do is sign up for Paribus and sync it with your email. Then, let the money roll in.So far, theyve found more than $28 million in savings for their users. Where Does It Work?The Paribus team currently has their algorithm monitoring more than 25 major retailers. Online stores like, Walmart, Anthropologie, Zappos, Costco, Gap, Target, Nordstrom, Macys, L.L. Bean, Loft, and Wayfair are all o n the Paribus watch list. They also monitor late shipping from Amazon for youIts a pretty robust list. And as youve probably noticed, it includes basically every distributions-mix youve used to stock up on your school supplies, furnish your dorm, get your Official First Day of School outfit, and do way more of the stuff that comes with being a student.When Should I Start Using This?College is crazy expensive. We know weve been there, and many of us at WayUp are still paying it off. But Paribus can help you save money during college, and wed recommend starting now. Why? Because at the time of us writing this, Back to School sales are slowly finishing, which means prices on the Back to School items youve bought (notebooks, stationery, supplies, dorm room swag, etc) are going to start dropping. And you can get money back as a result.Interested in saving a little extra green with no extra effort? Sign up today with your email directly on theirwebsite
