Review summary

Users praise the app for student discounts and broad savings, but repeatedly report a paywall, laggy performance, unreliable discounts, and UI/UX/login issues. Addressing pricing clarity, performance optimization, discount reliability, and a more intuitive interface could unlock the app's potential for substantial student savings.

Pros

Significant money savings through student discounts across many retailers.
Deals compiled from various retailers, offering broad coverage.
Generally useful for students and valuable when it works.
Positive overall sentiment and enthusiasm about the concept.

Cons

Requires a paid membership; perceived paywall with few rewards on the free tier.
App is slow and laggy on multiple devices; optimization is lacking.
Discount codes and promised rewards are sometimes invalid or not accepted.
UI/UX issues: screen doesn't fit properly, some buttons are unclickable, and the interface isn't intuitive.
Login/account problems, including too many attempts and issues after changing devices.

2026-05-29	R *****	The app provides no info. I can't contact anyone fot assistance. Cibc is affiliated with them, no help there too. Most likely first and last year for my child to use this card as there is no meaningful benifit from it.

Why now do I have to pay $11.99 a year for a membership!? Shouldn't my membership be my student card? Just another example of greedy people wanting to make an extra buck, on the expense of the working class..

2026-01-15	Bh*****	This is a great app meant to save users a lot of money. While I haven't used it much, since I don't shop a lot, I have seen the deals and it is a great idea that I am sure will be very helpful when I need it. One gripe with the app however is that I hope they optimize it more for lower end hardware. I am running it on a Samsung Galaxy A16 5G and the app stutters and lags during scrolling or just browsing throughout the app. If that one thing gets fixed, it is a wonderful app otherwise.

Their free membership offers no rewards as they are all locked behind the paywall so why does it even exist. Application doesn't fit my screen, and some buttons unclickable.
