Earning Cash Back is easy!
That’s all you have to do.
Once the store confirms your purchase, Rakuten will add your Cash Back to your account and notify you. It usually takes a little time for the store to confirm that your purchase was completed. Depending on the store, this can take from a few hours to several days. Every three months, Rakuten sends you the Cash Back you’ve earned, either by check or via PayPal. If Cash Back for an order is still pending approval, it will carry over to your next payment.
To earn Cash Back for online purchases, you must start shopping at the NEA Discount Marketplace and click the link to your favorite store.
You know you’re earning Cash Back if you click on the activate Cash Back link and get a confirmation pop-up that Cash Back at that store is now active. Look for the pop-up confirmation before you shop.
You can visit Cash Back Balance to verify that you earned Cash Back on a purchase. Rakuten usually can’t report Cash Back immediately at the time of purchase because it takes time for the store to provide notification that you placed an order. Depending on the store, this can take anywhere from a few hours to several days.
Once the store confirms that you’ve made a purchase, Rakuten will add Cash Back to your account and notify you. At that point, the amount will be viewable in your Cash Back Balance.
There are a few things to know about earning Cash Back:
Follow these steps to receive your Cash Back:
*To be included in your next payment, Cash Back must be approved by the store you purchased from.

If the email address you use to sign in on neamb.com is the same email address you use for Rakuten, just sign up through the NEA Discount Marketplace and you’ll automatically have access to NEA-exclusive offers.
If the email address you use to sign in on neamb.com is different than the email address you currently use for your Rakuten account, you can either create a new, separate Rakuten account through NEA Discount Marketplace or you can contact Rakuten and ask them to consolidate your accounts. Please note: The email address you use to sign in on neamb.com is the only one that enables you to access NEA-exclusive offers. If you consolidate your accounts under the email address you do not use to sign in to neamb.com you will not have access to the exclusive offers available through the NEA Discount Marketplace.
If you made a purchase and don’t see Cash Back in your account, it may be due to one of these reasons:
All returns and cancellations are subject to each store’s specific policy. Returned or cancelled orders may void Cash Back and will be deducted from your Cash Back balance, depending on the store’s policy. If a store processes your exchanged order as a cancellation and a new transaction is created, the exchange may be treated as a cancelled order.
To ensure you receive Cash Back on exchanged orders, you can instead return the item and place an entirely new order at that store. Just make sure to start your shopping with neamb.com or Rakuten.
