Getting paid for shopping might sound too good to be true, but this is a way to make money from all the receipts you get from your shopping trips – whether you are visiting a supermarket or your local corner shop, you can still benefit from snapping pictures of your receipts so that you can earn money from your receipts.
Receipt Hog is an app available on both Android and iOS that rewards you for shopping! To earn money from your receipts with Receipt Hog, simply shop anywhere, making your usual purchases then upload a photo of your receipt to Receipt Hog. For every receipt you upload you will earn coins, based on the amount you spend:
- Less than £10 – 5 coins
- Between £10 – £50 – 10 coins
- Between £50 – £100 – 15 coins
- More than £100 – 20 coins
Along with the coins, you will also win 1 sweepstake entry for every receipt you upload.

- Supermarkets and other grocery stores

- Bargain/discount store
- Beauty supplies

Hog Slots
In addition to earning coins, you will also earn a spin at the Hog Slots for every receipt you upload from clothing stores, home improvement stores, electronics store and more. Spinning the free slots gives you a chance to win bonus coins and prizes – one of which is to get your last shop paid for!

Wow, had never heard of this! Thanks, Emma!
I’ve been using Receipt Hog for a while now, it’s easy to use! Perfect!
In the post yesterday I received an offer to join ShopandScan. Have you heard of them?
I have been with Shop and Scan for a few years and would highly recommend signing up.
I love Receipt Hog, especially the slots. I really wish I had more slot options haha!
Not to sound like a sceptic but.. What do receipt hog get in return for pictures of your receipts? No one gives away free money.
There is a lot of money to be made when it comes to analysing shopping habits and selling it back to retailers and manufacturers, so I guess it might be that?
