SavingStar is a paperless grocery rewards platform that enables shoppers to earn cash back. Shoppers earn cash on item-level grocery purchases with offers linked to their store loyalty cards and are validated when they submit a picture of their receipt at a number of retail locations nationwide. It automatically adds the value of each offer into members' SavingStar or partner accounts, enabling users to pick their payout from cash back or other currencies. The platform was launched in June 2010 and is based in Waltham, Massachusetts.
