Great app to save money! I recommend this to anyone who drives a lot or goes out to eat a lot. After using it for a while, I dropped 2 stars off because the search feature is 100% trash. When searching it bounces right back to local area. The search function needs to produce a list or something useful should be displayed, but as it sits it's useless.

Notifications pop up about special offers, but when you tap them to see what it is they go away and you can't find them again. Map function should integrate better with Google maps especially when moving. Doesn't help to pull up offers that are 10 miles in the opposite direction I'm going. Still like the concept. Over $850 earned so far.

Upside is ok at its best, in some areas. A full tank for me ranges between 12 gals and 17 gals on my 2 cars. So I never see more than $2....EVER! I use certain gas stations for their rewards and sometimes I'm lucky enough to get twice the rewards with upside and their rewards programs, but upside conveniently doesn't allow it most of the time. It'll say their are issues. The issue is I found a way to save a few more cents, but oh no! Upside won't have that. So they cut the discount in half. BFS!

Hi Steven, I understand that offers are low right now. From time to time, margins become tight at businesses and their owners aren't able to offer big discounts, like the offers in Upside. For future reference, you can visit our Upside FAQ for more details in our app: https://support.upside.com/hc/en-us
