Janice Cruz (ID: 00000084bd9a70e0) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/30/2017 This is a legit, and awesome extension and service. I paid $10 for a Target deal. I bought my regular stuff and shipped to store. Butterfly just put $25 into my paypal. I'm recommending this to EVERYONE. This is a better deal than most coupons you'll find out there. Customer service was awesome too. Sent an email to notify that my money hadn't deposited yet and within 24 hours it was there.

(ID: ) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/16/2017 First things first: Butterfly pays out every three months. Thats waaaay too long. Secondly, Butterfly communications/customer service is far more superior than what I have come to expect of most rebate sites. They really do respond to messages no more than 24 hours later. They work with you to alleviate your cashback concerns in a much friendlier and trustworthy manner. Trust Butterfly to do what most three-months-later rebate programs won't: Treat you like someone they actually look forward to paying. Third and last: Butterfly's cashback percentages seem to be higher than their competitors. Their app seems less invasive as well as persuasive. No being pressured to sign up for useless offers, no being told that you're 2 cent cash back won't be available for two years. A great way to ease into rebate redemption. Thanks for being what others are not.
