Cashback sites earn commissions from merchants for directing customers to their platforms. When you click on other sites or advertisements during your purchase journey, the sale is attributed to those advertisers instead of Cashrewards. As a result, Cashrewards doesn’t receive the commission, and your sale becomes ineligible for cashback.

Some merchants attribute transactions to multiple advertisers initially and then determine the final attribution through a de-duplication process during the monthly validation. The sale commission is typically given to the advertiser linked to the last click before the purchase. 

To ensure transactions are tracked and eligible for cashback, avoid clicking on other sites or advertisements after clicking through Cashrewards to the merchant.
