FAQs

Does Shopkick ship purchases or rewards?

Shopkick itself does not ship physical purchases. Rewards are typically redeemed as digital gift‑card codes in the app; physical gift-card delivery depends on the card issuer or retailer.

What if I need to return an item I bought after earning kicks?

Returns are handled by the retailer where you purchased the item. Shopkick may reverse kicks earned on purchases that are refunded or returned according to partner policies.

How can I get discounts or bonus kicks?

Look for in‑app promotions, branded bonus offers, seasonal campaigns and referral bonuses. Linking a payment card or completing specific partner purchases can unlock higher kick payouts.
