Today is National Cashback Day. Just when you thought it couldn’t get any sweeter than that, Stephen Pepper lets me know that today is also National Candy Today. If you have a sweet tooth for travel-related cash back, today could be your day because Retailmenot, Rakuten, and TopCashBack are all offering elevated rates at some of your favorite travel sites.

Key Terms

Quick Thoughts
Always be sure to check Cashbackmonitor.com for best rate history to know which rates are a good deal. Most of the increases listed above are very good rates.
Remember that clicking through a portal like Retailmenot or TopCashBack to Marriott or IHG is just like booking directly — you don’t need to book an advance purchase rate. Typically publicly-available rates will work fine (even when paid later at the hotel), the cash back just won’t track until after you’ve completed your stay.
Overall, there are some solid deals here for those who will be booking things today. While I included Viator above, keep in mind that I’m not a big fan (I wouldn’t recommend booking with them).

I’m waiting for National Don’t Spend Money Day. I’m hoping for 15% back on money I thought about spending .
That’s called Coinbase dot com almost any day of the week. 😀
Can you get cash back for gift cards at any of these? Hotels.com?
I don’t know. My instinct is that if it were possible I would know, but I haven’t heard definitively one way or the other.
