Rakuten has launched its own cashback-program, so if you like you can get 30$ Welcome Bonus in case you order something for at least 31$ in a shop of your choice. (e.g. Aliexpress, Amazon, Rakuten, Adidas etc.)
I tried it and it took me 20 minutes to order some hardware for my projects with a discount of 30$.
Here is my Cash Balance after I purchased my items.
Step by Step Guide:
1.) Open a new Browser Window (e.g. Firefox / Chrome / IE) but disable any Adblocker if you have that.
–> Alternatively if you are using chrome open a new “Chrome Incognito Window”
Paste the following URL in your Browser:
https://www.rakuten.com/r/CHEISI4?eeid=28187
2.) Even if you are living in the EU, click on “No, I’m not an EEA Resident”.
Because of the EU Data Protection Rules Rakuten is making sure that Europeans are “protected”, but Rakuten is legaly fine if you decline the EEA questions by yourself.
3.) After you said “No, I’m Not an EEA Resident”, paste the link once again in you address bar or click on the link:
https://www.rakuten.com/r/CHEISI4?eeid=28187
4.) Sign Up for Rakuten, the simples way is just to add your emailadress in the field and click “Next”
5.) Follow the instruction to verify that your are an individual and not any automatic script or bot or what else you can imagine
6.) Almost there, just click “Join Now”
The biggest hurdly has been taken, now just search for the shop you like to buy from
Don’t get confused by “Coupons Only”, your reward of 30$ will be provided to you when you spend 31$ in any shop you like… e.g. Amazon
In case you are not living in the US, Amazon will ask you to change the address, we won’t do that, as we change the URL as in the next picture.
As said, we will change the URL to the country you like, simply by editing the URL above.
As mentioned earlier, we need to spend at least 31$ to get the 30$ CASHBACK.
If you don’t know what to buy, I recommend you the Earfun GO Box, it has been tested by oluv’s gadgets and is really great for its price.

Just some last words about it, I like the 30$ refund, but to be honest, be aware that Rakuten is paying per period, so it seems that my next payout will be on: 08/15/20.
So, if you don’t need the money and you can wait some month until the payout, it is a nice way to get 30 bucks back for almost no work…
