Cybergold Launches Cash-Back Shopping Site
Cash rebates are automatically credited to the shopper's Cybergold account whenever those shoppers make a purchase. Shoppers who are not yet Cybergold members are prompted to open a secure account free of charge.
Members can redeem their rebates for cash by transferring it to a checking account or applying it to their Visa card.
"Shoppers go through Cybergold to the same merchants they would shop at anyway -- but now they get real cash-back in addition to any specials the merchant may be running," said Nat Goldhaber, president and CEO of Cybergold.
In a related move, Cybergold said it acquired the assets of SmartFrog.com, a frequent-buyer loyalty program that pays shoppers cash rebates.
Financial terms were not disclosed.
