When this bonus makes sense
Cashback signup bonuses are essentially free money if you were already going to shop online or use the partner retailers anyway. The bonus is paid for behavior you would have done regardless — installing the app, scanning receipts, or making a first qualifying purchase.
When to skip it
Skip if you have to manufacture spending just to qualify (e.g., the "make $30 of qualifying purchases" requirement isn't a free $30 if you wouldn't have spent that money otherwise). Also skip if the redemption thresholds are so high that you'll never actually cash out.
Receipt-scanning app with the lowest cashout threshold in the category. Welcome bonus + first receipt usually clears the payout floor immediately.
How to maximize this bonus
Stack with a rewards credit card — Rakuten + Chase Sapphire on the same purchase double-dips on the same dollar spent. For grocery apps (Fetch, Ibotta, Receipt Hog), scan every grocery receipt to all three apps in parallel.
