How Sparebørsen works
Sparebørsen is a dedicated cashback service with 270+ Norwegian and international online stores. You click through to the store via Sparebørsen, shop as normal without a discount code, and get a share back as real kroner, paid into your bank account once the purchase is approved. The top rate is 42%, and most stores sit between 1 and 10%. A Chrome extension registers the cashback automatically on desktop.
How Rabatta works
Rabatta is a browser extension and app that mainly finds and applies discount codes automatically (10 000+ codes), and lets you collect Rabatta points that are exchanged for gift cards. Its strength is the large selection of codes and a solid extension that tests codes at the checkout for you. The difference from plain cashback is that the reward is points and gift cards rather than money in your account, and that the model is built around discount codes.
The most important difference
This comes down to what you are left with. Sparebørsen gives you kroner you can withdraw to your bank account and spend on whatever you like. Rabatta gives you discount codes at the checkout plus points that turn into gift cards, tied to particular stores. If you want plain cashback as money across a broad store selection, Sparebørsen is the more flexible option. If you are mainly after discount codes, Rabatta is strong.
Which should you choose?
- You want money in your account: Sparebørsen.
- You are mainly hunting discount codes at the checkout: Rabatta.
- You would rather not deal with codes: Sparebørsen, where the cashback registers automatically.
- Both: use Rabatta to find a discount code and Sparebørsen for cashback on top; they can be combined on the same purchase.
