Rakuten is a cashback and rewards platform that helps you save money on your purchases. Here’s how it works:

1. Sign Up: Create a free account on Rakuten’s website or app.
2. Shop Through Rakuten: Browse through Rakuten’s website, app, or use their browser extension to find stores and activate cashback offers.
3. Make a Purchase: When you make a purchase through Rakuten’s links, they earn a commission from the store.
4. Earn Cashback: Rakuten shares a portion of that commission with you as cashback. The cashback amount varies by store and offer.
5. Get Paid: Once your cashback balance reaches a certain threshold (usually $5), Rakuten will send you your earnings via check or PayPal on a quarterly basis
