What are Linked Credit Cards?

Did you know you can earn Cash Back in-person at physical stores and restaurants? Just add a card (or several!) to the Linked Credit Cards section of your Account to get started.

Once you add a card, you’ll automatically earn 5% Cash Back at 22,000+ restaurants nationwide when you pay with your linked card. Check out participating restaurants near you in the Rakuten App.

To earn Cash Back in store, add offers one-by-one and pay with your linked card.

If you add a debit card, make sure you process the transaction as credit to earn Cash Back.

Discover cards are not eligible for in-store and dining Cash Back.

All credit card information is securely stored in accordance with industry standards.

Find more information on credit card security in our Privacy Policy.
