Reader Rewards

Reader Rewards is a free member cash rewards program that allows you to securely register your existing credit/debit cards and earn cash back (aka BuxBack) when using your registered cards at participating merchants. Once you've earned at least $25 cash back in your Reader Rewards BuxBack account, you will receive a cash credit to your primary card on file the following month. You can also choose to automatically donate a percentage or all of your cash back to a partnering nonprofit of your choice. Reader Rewards is a win-win-win opportunity for merchants, consumers and charities!

• No additional cards to carry
• No phone numbers to memorize
• Get coupon pricing without the coupons
• Support a charity without digging into your own pocket

Reader Rewards is a completely merchant-funded rebate program. Merchants are always seeking ways to attract new customers while creating loyalty with their existing customers. Our program fills both of those needs – seamlessly!

And since we offer a performance-based program, merchants only pay for members who actually make a purchase — unlike paying hundreds or thousands of dollars upfront for an advertisement with no promise of gaining a single customer. With no up front costs for merchants, we completely eliminate advertising waste making this the most cost-effective alternative to traditional marketing.

Absolutely! Once you initiate our enrollment page, you are accessing our secure server. Our sophisticated technology upholds the highest levels of security compliance and maintains the following certifications and standards so you can be assured that all data is secure:

• Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliant, verified by the Visa® U.S.A. Cardholder Information Security Program (CISP), whose reviews are based on the PCI Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)
• Visa® certified third-party processor (TPP)
• Certified end-point processor for American Express®
• 128-bit encryption protocol called Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
• VeriSign-approved, the Internet security global leader
• MD5 encryption technology for card protection
• Secure user password authentication

Absolutely not! With Reader Rewards, you get to earn cash back in addition to your current rewards. Earn miles and Reader Rewards, or points and Reader Rewards, or cash and Reader Rewards. You basically get to "double dip" your rewards!

By securely registering your credit/debit cards with us, we are able to track your qualified transactions and properly credit the appropriate account with the correct cash back amount. Our secure technology allows you to freely shop without presenting special cards, coupons, or codes. As per the BuxBack Privacy Policy and Terms, we will never charge your credit card without your permission.

Absolutely. Simply log into your Member Back Office and click the link titled ADD CARD. If you are a company with multiple employees using company credit/debit cards, you can register up to 25 different cards with the cash back being credited to a primary company card on file (26 or more cards can be arranged by contacting Reader Rewards directly).

No. Shop and earn with no concern of limits.

The qualified transaction and cash back amount is viewable approximately 72 hours later in your Member Back Office (exceptions may apply depending on the merchant so always reference the Merchant Detail page for any special notes). Once you have $25.00 in your Reader Rewards account, cash will be automatically credited to the primary card on file the following month less any amounts you elected to donate to a partnering nonprofit organization(s).

You can, but you're not required to do so. One of the many benefits of our program is the discretion that our technology provides. Since your transaction is linked back to your Member Back Office to your registered credit/debit card, you simply shop like normal and Reader Rewards will do the rest. With Reader Rewards:

• You do not have to notify the merchant
• You do not have to carry additional cards
• You do not have to present an ID card
• You do not have to print, clip and present coupons
• You do not have to remember a phone number
• You do not have to share a special code

You are eligible immediately upon the completion of your secure online enrollment. Once you have received $25 in your Reader Rewards account we will credit your primary card on file.
