Our Online Offers enable you to shop directly with our affiliates while earning rewards!

You just select the Online Offer that interests you and then shop online on their website - you'll earn bitcoin back in the TBC app for eligible purchases!

Our initial Online Offers include Apple, eBay, Alibaba, Bloomingdale's, Macy's, Nike, Bass Pro Shops, Cabela's, Hotels.com, Home Depot, Office Depot, and tons more!

Stack Online Offers with prepaid Visa cards and gift cards!

Here's two ways to stack and super-charge your bitcoin back:

  1. Buy a gift card from the TBC app (and earn instant rewards) and then use that gift card with an Online Offer from the same brand to earn even more!

  2. Buy a prepaid Visa card from us (and earn instant sats back) and then use that card with an Online Offer to get even more rewards.

Please note that our Online Offers currently only cover the United States, but we'll add more countries over time!

Additionally, note that only eligible purchases will result in rewards from an Online Offer, and not every Online Offer is eligible to be used with a gift card.


To take advantage of Online Offers, you'll first need to log in to our web app or update your mobile app to the latest version (v0.1.29). After that, follow these steps:

WEB APPLICATION

1. On the Home screen, click "Online Offers", then select a brand.

2. On the Online Offer brand page, click "Shop Now".

3. The Online Offer brand website should open after Step 3. You can then shop online with that brand, including completing the checkout process via their website.

Do not use ad blockers when shopping with Online Offers, as it may cause your purchase to not be recognized in the TBC app (and your rewards may not be applied).

4. Enjoy your bitcoin rewards!

At first, you will first receive US dollar "pending" rewards. You cannot spend or withdraw pending rewards. These rewards are set as pending due to card transactions taking some time to reach final settlement.

Once your card transaction is settled and we receive the funds from the merchant partner, then you will receive "confirmed" bitcoin rewards which are able to be spent or withdrawn. This typically takes 30-60 days after standard purchases; while some purchases, like hotel and airline bookings, the confirmed rewards won't be processed until after the completed booking.
