Earn Shop Cash

You earn Shop Cash at a rate of 1% on eligible orders made with Shop Pay and Shop Pay Installments. You might also have the opportunity to earn extra Shop Cash through promotional events in the Shop app. To earn Shop Cash, your order must meet the following requirements:

  • You pay for your order using Shop Pay or Shop Pay Installments in the Shop app or through an online store.
  • The online store is located in the United States or Canada, uses USD or CAD as their store currency, and accepts Shop Pay.
  • You select a shipping method, and your order isn't for local pickup.
  • The purchase doesn't include gift cards, subscriptions, or digital products.
  • The payment card you used has a United States or Canadian billing address.
  • The store isn't a wholesale store.

If your order is eligible to earn Shop Cash, then a banner displays at checkout. You only earn Shop Cash on the portion of the order you pay for with Shop Pay or Shop Pay Installments. You can't opt out of earning Shop Cash.
