VERDICT

Should I use Snaplii?

Buy digital gift cards from 500+ brands and earn up to 15% Snaplii Cash instantly, on every purchase. Use it like real money on your next order. - snaplii.com

Depends. Worth trying if you already shop regularly at its partner brands and will happily spend the Snaplii Cash back in-app. Skip it if you expect withdrawable cash, minimal data sharing, or a proven US track record.

Confidence

Medium. Based on ~20 public sources; several are Snaplii's own blog posts and were weighted as self-reported claims, not independent proof.
