What is Upside?
Upside is a mobile app designed to help you save money on everyday expenses like gas, groceries, and dining out. By using Upside, you can earn cash-back rewards when you shop at participating stores. Getting started is simple: download the app, locate nearby businesses that are part of the program, select an offer, and pay using a linked credit or debit card. Once you've made your purchase, you'll receive cash-back rewards that can be redeemed for cash or gift cards.

The fine print:
Bottom-line cost: You won't pay anything beyond your normal gas purchases — no payment is necessary for the app.
How do I get my cash back? Once your gas purchase is confirmed by Upside, the cash-back reward will be credited to your account in the app. You can redeem your cash-back rewards for cash or gift cards, or let them accumulate over time.
Do I need to cancel? No, there's no need to cancel, since it's not a subscription service.
