Slickdeals vs RetailMeNot

What reviewers actually said

Built only from these 120 real reviews (foreign ones translated). Superscripts jump to the quote here. Apple has no per-review links, so [ref] opens that app's reviews on the App Store.

1. [R22] Slickdeals 1/5 · US Non stop expired deals: Staff posts non stop dead deals for Amazon. Hacks no longer work and coupon codes are never there. Been a huge waste of my time these past few months. SD is spam now and they get paid for clicks so they don’t care if the deals work anymore it’s all a scam.
2. [R61] RetailMeNot 1/5 · US No cash back: No cash back for 2026 purchases so far. I have made several orders since January. When I check back my purchases and then just found out they only accept missing cash back within 90 days of the purchase. This is so unacceptable. Going to uninstall the app.
3. [R70] RetailMeNot 1/5 · US No longer receiving cash back: I used to love this app. For the last several months, I have not been receiving cash back for offers I have activated. The frustrating part is if I had not clicked on the Retail Me Not offer, I would’ve actually received cashback at a lower percentage via other apps.
4. [R75] RetailMeNot 3/5 · US Most Don’t Work: Used for years and early on the codes mostly were legit. For many months now, the codes don’t work and see made up; like a person’s name plus a number. Very disappointing.
5. [R4] Slickdeals 1/5 · US Newest update makes app lousy: Why in the world would you remove the quick access to categories. People are not going to use the app if it becomes next to impossible to figure out how to see what they want to see. I’m still mind-blown that someone agreed to the current layout as being the best choice. This is wildly off.
6. [R36] Slickdeals 1/5 · US App dev team should be fired: App dev team clearly do not use their own app or they would fix would have fixed YEARS of freezing, crashing, and slow bugs. With AI coding nowadays this is unacceptable!
7. [R73] RetailMeNot 1/5 · US 👎🏾: This app keeps crashing. Every time I open the app it glitches and closes it immediately. Please fix it.
8. [R79] RetailMeNot 1/5 · US Horrible: It’s not reliable that the cash back transaction shows up on your account. I usually have to follow up. I don’t have this problem on Rakuten.
9. [R10] Slickdeals 1/5 · US Doesnt load: Doesnt load
10. [R67] RetailMeNot 1/5 · US No More Cash Back?: I stopped receiving cash back months ago. Now I have a balance that is too small to redeem.
11. [R112] RetailMeNot 1/5 · US Cash back never works: The codes work rarely, and the cash back they used to be good, never works anymore
12. [R5] Slickdeals 5/5 · US Deals everywhere!: Slickdeals has already saved me hundreds on items that I’ve been wanting to get but wanted to wait for sales to get them. Love this app!!!!!
13. [R65] RetailMeNot 5/5 · US Real Savings!: I started using this tool during Black Friday and Christmas sales last year. From Nov-Dec I managed to earn $106 back that I was able to cash right out and use for whatever I needed as soon as the New Year started. RetailMeNot is legit and I’m here for it!! Thank you for saving me money! -A Grateful Single Mom!!
14. [R68] RetailMeNot 5/5 · US Cash back: I have been using RetaiMeNot for years. It is a good website to save money.
15. [R113] RetailMeNot 5/5 · US It pays to shop: RetailMeNot is a life saver because prices on all goods really add up. This is a way to bring those costs down. It saves you money.
16. [R102] RetailMeNot 1/5 · US Goalposts keep changing: They are very slow to verify your orders, if they do at all. About 50% of the time I have to submit a ticket to get my cash back. They also change goal posts and deny cash back if you use a coupon loaded into your loyalty account for the store you’re shopping at because the coupon wasn’t advertised on RMN. Overall it’s not worth having to spend time going back and review
17. [R118] RetailMeNot 1/5 · US No cash back: Using app then order but no cash back
