We built the shopping rewards tool we always wanted.

Most people who shop online are leaving money on the table — not because they don't care, but because the rewards landscape is genuinely complicated. Shopping portals offer cashback or airline miles. Credit card issuers quietly add card-linked offers that expire if you forget to activate them. Discounted gift cards can stretch your dollar even further. And all of it can be stacked — if you know where to look.

Savewise is a shopping portal aggregator and cashback comparison tool that pulls all of that together. For any merchant, you can instantly see which portal pays the highest cashback rate today, which airline or hotel points program is running a bonus, whether your Amex or Chase card has an active offer, and whether a discounted gift card is available to stack on top. Every layer, side by side, in one place.

We track hundreds of merchants and refresh portal rates daily, so you're always looking at current data — not stale screenshots from a forum post. Our offer history and trend features let you see whether today's cashback rate is elevated or just average, so you know whether to shop now or wait.

Beyond comparison, Savewise helps you act on what you find. Browser extensions for Chrome and Safari surface savings while you're actively shopping, without requiring you to remember to check first. Offer alerts notify you when a portal rate spikes or a sign-up bonus appears. And for card-linked offers from issuers like Amex and Chase, Savewise surfaces them automatically — no more hunting through bank portals to find offers you didn't know you had.

The result: a faster, more confident way to maximize credit card rewards, stack cashback, and make every dollar go further.

Savewise is available as a web app, iOS app, and browser extension — free to use, with a Pro tier for power users who want deeper history, unlimited alerts, and advanced personalization.

We made a deliberate choice early on: Savewise will never put a paywall in front of basic savings information. You shouldn't have to pay to find out which shopping portal pays the most cashback at Nike today. That's a lookup, not a premium feature.

What we do charge for — optionally — is everything that turns Savewise from a reference tool into an active savings engine. Extended offer history. Elevated offer alerts when rates are statistically above normal. Auto-add offer detection. Unlimited alerts and personalization. Features built for people who want Savewise working in the background, not just something they remember to check.

We're also permanently ad-free. The interests of a good savings recommendation and the interests of an advertiser are fundamentally in conflict. We don't want to be in that business.

Our revenue comes from affiliate partnerships — when you sign up for a shopping portal through Savewise, we earn a commission — and from Savewise Pro subscriptions. Both of those align with what we'd want to do anyway: help you find and use the best savings opportunities available.

I've been obsessed with points and miles for about a decade. The kind of obsessed where you have a spreadsheet for your credit card calendar, you know which shopping portal is historically best for each of your favorite merchants, and you've spent time on FlyerTalk threads debating the merits of a 3x vs. 5x multiplier offer.

I also spent years working in product at companies like Instagram, Foursquare, Dropbox, and Microsoft — building tools used by millions of people and thinking constantly about what makes a product genuinely useful versus just technically functional.

Savewise sits at the intersection of both. I built it because I couldn't find a single tool that combined everything I was already tracking manually: shopping portal cashback rates, card-linked offers from my Amex and Chase cards, discounted gift card availability, and the ability to stack all of it. The tools that existed either covered one piece of the puzzle, or tried to cover everything but did it poorly. So I built the thing I wanted to use.

What I care about most is that Savewise saves you real money — not in a vague "you could theoretically optimize this" way, but in a concrete, specific, actionable way. The goal is always for you to leave with a clear answer: here's the best stack for this purchase, right now.

If you have thoughts on how Savewise could work better for you, I genuinely want to hear them. You can reach me directly at [email protected].
