Topcashback offers the ability to send your friend a link to a merchant which will track their shopping cash back to your portal account. It’s gives anyone the ability to have their own ‘affiliate link’ of sorts and to get paid for someone else’s shopping. I’d recommend making it clear to your friend that you’ll be gaining from this, and that they can make their own to portal account, if they choose, for their own gain. (Portals offer nice refer-a-friend bonuses, so you can stand to gain that way too. 🙂 )
This feature can be highly useful for someone helping their friend make a large purchase, when the buyer won’t be using a shopping portal anyway. Simply generate a deep link which will take them directly to the retailer, they’ll shop as normal, and the cashback will be deposited into your portal account.
I’m not sure if this is new or it’s always been there, but I don’t recall bumping into this feature before in any of the major shopping portals.
