Well it looks like the Snap by Groupon cash back app is going the way of Endorse – that is to say, that it’s ending.
Here’s what they have to say:
Starting on March 1, 2016, Snap will be expanding to include Groupon’s inventory of nearly 70,000 digital offers at top retailers in the United States and Canada. With this update, Snap will be transitioning from product-specific to retailer-specific promotions. For a preview of these digital offers, check out the Coupons section of Groupon.com.
What type of offers will I be able to find on Snap?
With this update, Snap will be transitioning from product-specific to retailer-specific promotions. Instead of 50 cents cash back from buying a particular brand of cereal, the app will feature digital offers from some of the top brands, including Best Buy, Express, Macy’s, Target and Walmart, among others. For a preview of these offers, check out the Coupons section of Groupon.com.
How long can I continue to earn cash back?
You will continue to be able to earn cash back through February 29. On March 1, Snap will transition to retailer-specific promotions
So what happens to my Snap balance?
– If you have a balance of $20 or more, you can request a check within the My Account section of the Main Menu.
– If you have less than a $20 balance on March 1, as per the Cash Back Program Terms, you are not eligible to request a check. We’ll be giving you an equivalent amount in promotional Groupon Bucks rounded up the nearest $5. For example, if you have a $7.75 balance in your Snap account, we’ll be giving you $10 in Groupon Bucks good on Groupon.com or for mobile app purchases. Your Groupon Bucks will expire on Sept. 1, 2016, so spend them soon!.For information about how promotional Groupon Bucks work, click here.
– If you’re an existing Groupon user, we’ll automatically deposit the Groupon Bucks into your existing account.
– If you’re not a current Groupon user, we’ll use the email address we have on file with Snap to create a Groupon account for you. You will be able to use your Snap email and password to access your new account.
– If you don’t have a balance on Snap (or have cashed out already), we will also be creating a new Groupon account for you in the event you don’t have one.
