Some of these "news" stories seem made up, then one day there was a tictok I had posted to my account as a news story. I wouldn't take anything on this app as real news.

Fast cash doesn't work and app won't load at the mall
Thought I was doing something wrong. Glad other people have the same experiences. Why do they need to know my location I'm trying to find theirs so I can shop there. Consider this app gone
Can't use without push notifications - just needed a quick map to find my store, but it won't let you past the initial screen without signing up for push notifications etc. No thank you
I downloaded this app for the map. But the map is so grainy and low res that I couldn't read half the store names. I'd have been better off with a pdf
This app is trash. Conveniently won't open when you're at the outlet trying to redeem cash or find store deals but will open up just fine outside of it. Not sure what the point of the app is if it isn't a functional working app.
I have nothing but success as long as I have the proper card attached and my financial institution(s) allows such a connection. I also have NEX APP Cashback card with big money on it because of all the savings. Love it because I shop here.
Looking up stores and offers is fine but trying to use/ earn fast cash that is offered via the app is a nightmare. Close to $150 that isn't showing up for purchases made. I would have saved the 40 min drive and gone to the same/ similar stores in town if I knew how much of a headache this would be. The program needs to be revamped-put fine print of using debit cards as credit up front and not buried- and easier to use if they are going to charge $25/yr for something that doesn't even work.
Horrible..installed from playstore twice. Says something went wrong... can't open.. uninstalled
App doesn't ever work. Won't move past the opening screen. Very disappointing when looking for discounts & promos
