Our Verdict
These are useful for shopping. Remember to shop through a portal.
It was still showing 1% on the checkout page on the app and on the website despite activating the offer and the order being more than 50$, called ebay support and they said they are aware of the issue, and promised 10% would be applied eventually.
Yes, it only seems to generate 1% for items that are greater than the $25/$50 minimums. If you change the quantity of an item so that it passes that minimum, the proper eBay bucks percentage will show. If you have a bunch of small value items and they cumulatively add up to over the minimum, it won’t calculate it correctly.
I think each item has to be above the minimum for the promo to work.
At least that was what I was told previously.
Can I go through a portal to the app? Or is it 10% in app because you can’t go through a portal?
I’m not sure if it’s possible to use a portal with app.
Drop works fine with the app – and it has 10% cashback offer expiring today.
Of course you might be screwed if it fails to track, which has happened to me in like one out of five times. Drop support is not the easiest to deal with but they have credited me once manually in the past.
Ibotta works with the app too, but the rate is pathetic. They say upto 1.5%, but mostly I saw like 0.25% t o 1%.
I received this offer instead:
Be a Holiday Hero! Earn 8% In-App.
Or 6% onsite. Get a jumpstart on your gift shopping and collect big rewards.

I got the 8/6% offer on $25 minimum as well.
Same here, got the lower percentages and not those of the title.
