Shopkick: Shopping Rewards & Deals

The app finds ways to deny users points that were earned. On at least two Target receipts I was denied over 1000 points, including on purchases that were made largely for the points. Why, because the clerk tore off the receipt unevenly so the store name was not technically on the receipt, despite the fact that the logo and website of the store were all on the receipt. I am not going to ask an overworked clerk to reprint a receipt in the middle of a holiday rush.

Why the hell do you require access to microphone to earn walk-in kicks??? Update: I still don't understand why you need to have microphone access. Mind explain more in the app descriptions? Also, you mentioned that only some of the partners require this, so does that mean I can get walk-in kicks in others even if I don't give that permission to the app? Mind sharing a list so I know what to expect?

This app is rip off. They wait until you collect points and then will ban you stating that you violated their rules. Must be very convenient. I would give them negative rating if I could. STAY AWAY

First, let me say I LOVE Shopkick. I have been a member for years & my daughter and I love Shopkicking together every weekend. However, I have to say I HATE the way the individual scan items are arranged in the app in this latest update. Scannable items are arbitrarily assigned to a category that rarely matches up with that store's org method, making it hard to find items. (Nesquik is not in Breakfast & in Walmart, it's in Beverages and in the Condiments aisle.) The app's org system also makes it impossible to see items left to scan in a store without tapping on each individual category. The category only summarizes the total # available (including scans available if I scan the receipt), It would be great if you could separate the # of scannable items vs the # of items that will earn kicks if I purchase so I can quickly see if I've missed any. The last issue I have is that when I tap on a store's available kicks, it takes me to a summary page that shows each category plus a few items. If there are more than 3, I have to tap "see all." I have missed several items cos I didn't see that & left the store thinking I scanned all, only to find out later I missed some.

Have had to contact about items purchased for kicks twice now. Good app until you use the instore purchases they claim to be fixing it but its been months. So i miss out on kicks for purchases with no way to recoup them. Have contacted and my reciepts are clear and state purchases clear. This is what i was told by support team. (See below) What does it even mean? They wont grant the kicks i earned through purchases? Then why offer the feature! This email doesnt say when my kicks will be approved and added.

For reference, you need 1250 kicks to get a $5 gift card, and most scannable items are worth 10 kicks. I decided to not use this app mainly because it uses Bluetooth for location service (you have to have it on to get walk-in kicks) and I don't want to leave my Bluetooth on all the time or try to remember to turn it on every time I enter a store.

You scan an item and gets points, you purchase that same item submit the receipt and get denied your kick points! What a joke of an app!!

Great app to earn free gift cards. There are many fun and easy ways to earn lots of kicks to redeem a gift card of your choice. Walmart, Target, and Best Buy are the best stores to scan products at to earn gift cards quickly.

The only draw back I find is it won't connect and keeps saying reload. Other than that a great app.

It seems to always have trouble connecting to my location when I'm in a store

The bar code scanner rarely works now. I'm missing out on kicks.

Hassle takes way to much time to collect points people don't have time to waste like this.

The camera does not work. My receipts are too blurry

This dont work for nothing do not use this app

First time user extremely easy and fun way to earn free gift cards

I'm having trouble doing receipt scans at home. It tells me there's problems and to try back later, but it never works. I can't get videos for kicks to load at home either. Works great in stores. I just don't have the time to do all the other stuff at the store as well... Kind of disappointing.

I got suspended and not sure why except for the fact I have been trying to get someone from shopkicks to explain to me why accounts are being suspended and now mine has been why? My kids and I have done nothing wrong. We have faithfully been scanning, products we are supposed to to in the stores and walkins why did you suspended it. Please get in touch with me and tell me why you think I have done something wrong, please...
