Cash Back Apps (that aren’t sketchy)
Fluz is my new ALL-TIME FAVORITE cashback app. With Fluz, you can save up to 35% on places like DoorDash, Starbucks, Dunkin, Spotify, Walmart, etc (no joke, most offers are 20-35%). You just buy a gift card for your purchase price on the app, then pay with the gift card at checkout. Use the link to get your bonuses, or use the code THEATB.
GetUpside is a no-brainer for saving money on gas. You’ll automatically save up to $.15/gallon on every tank of gas that you purchase using the app. It’s super easy to use, just hook up your card to the app and check in when you arrive to activate your deal! Use the link below or code LEXA4674 to save an EXTRA $.15/gallon on your first tank of gas.
Fetch Rewards automatically applies cash back on every receipt in order to save you money. You can even connect your Amazon and email to get cashback on e-receipts. Use the link below, or code 76XVW, to get an extra 2,000 points when you scan your first receipt (worth $2).
Dosh links with your credit card in order to give you automatic cash back at thousands of retailers. I love Dosh because they also partner with local businesses (like my favorite local Mexican restaurant) to give you cashback for supporting small businesses!
Rakuten is an app and browser extension that gives you cashback offers at thousands of retailers when you use the extension or app to shop! Plus, using the link below you’ll get a bonus $30 when you spend $30 with one of their retailers!
Ibotta is one of the most popular couponing apps on the market! Get cashback on tons of purchases from the most popular retailers by scanning receipts. This is a great way to save money on groceries, and you can stack your rewards with other couponing/cash back apps like Fetch Rewards!

Favorite Budgeting Apps
Digit is the easiest budgeting app I’ve ever used! They automate your finances for you by splitting your money between bills, saving, and spending. This is my go-to recommendation if you want an easy way to budget!
YNAB (You Need a Budget) was the budgeting software that helped me pay off $20k in CC debt and save $15k in a year. They are based on a zero-based budgeting system. Get an Extra month free when you use the link below!

Chase Sapphire Preferred is my go-to recommendation for a travel rewards card. There are TONS of perks including 75,000 bonus point intro offer (which equals around $1,000 in travel rewards), 5x points on travel, 3x points on dining, free DashPass subscription, + more!

The Capital One Quicksilver card was actually my first credit card! It’s still a great cash-back card. Depending on your offer, you can earn 1-1.5% cashback on all purchases!
