Capital One Shopping, which is a public shopping portal / browser extension / app that does not require a Capital One credit card, is offering a new referral bonus whereby both you and the friend you refer can earn $20 in rewards when your friend joins Capital One Shopping, installs the browser or mobile extension and spends at least $10 on a qualifying purchase within 30 days (up to $300 in referral bonuses from referring new friends). That’s a nice little bonus for spreading the word.
The Deal
- Capital One Shopping is offering $20 in rewards when you refer a new customer who signs up, installs the browser or mobile extension, and spends $10 on a qualifying purchase (any purchase that earns rewards should qualify)
- My referral link
Key Terms
- To qualify for a referral sign up bonus, your refer-ee must be a new Capital One Shopping user, sign up and install the Capital One Shopping desktop computer or mobile browser extension via your referral link, and make Qualifying Purchase(s) totaling $10 within 30 days of signing up.
- A Qualifying Purchase means a purchase via Capital One Shopping that earns Capital One Shopping Rewards.
- By participating in the referral program, you are telling your refer-ee that you’re a Capital One Shopping customer.
- Bonuses will be automatically applied to your account and your refer-ee’s account within 30 days after satisfying these requirements, but issuance may be delayed during the determination of whether a Qualifying Purchase has been made by a new user.
- You may only earn bonuses for a limited number of referrals per referral period.
- Bonuses will be awarded as Capital One Shopping Rewards, and are subject to the Capital One Shopping Terms of Service.
- We reserve the right to alter, change, or terminate this offer at any time without notice. Additional terms apply; please see the Capital One Shopping Terms of Service for more details.
Quick Thoughts
I’ve been a big fan of the Capital One Shopping ecosystem over the past year. While some of the most incredible deals have dried up, I’ve continued to see some decent targeted payouts — while not quite as good as 7 or 8 months ago, I’ve still been finding targeted offers well above the norm.
You can earn up to $300 in total from referring others through this promotion, which provides plenty of room for most people to refer their family and friends.
It’s worth noting that this bonus is lower than referral bonuses we’ve seen from other shopping portals and it comes with the 30-day time limit on first purchase, but it’s still pretty easy money. Keep in mind that Capital One Shopping rewards can only be redeemed for gift cards, not actual cash.

FWIW, I received an email from Capital One Shopping just a little before noon today offering a $30 referral bonus, up to $300.
