Digital rebate programs for beverage, alcohol and CPG brands
Shoppers scan a QR code, snap a photo of their receipt and get paid by Venmo or PayPal. Round runs the whole program: the claim page, the terms, the receipt review, the payouts and the reporting.
From shelf to payout in four steps
Shopper buys and scans
The offer lives on shelf talkers, neck hangers, case cards or packaging, with a QR code that opens a mobile claim page.
Shopper uploads the receipt
A short form and a photo of the receipt. About a minute on a phone.
Round reviews the claim
Right product, right quantity, right dates, eligible state. Claims that don’t qualify are declined with a clear reason.
Shopper gets paid
Approved claims are paid by Venmo or PayPal, typically within 48 to 72 hours.
Everything a rebate needs, handled
Program setup
A branded, mobile-first claim page and the QR code for your printed materials.
Offer terms
Rebate terms and the short POS disclaimer, drafted for your legal team’s review.
Receipt review
Every claim checked against the offer before anyone is paid.
Consumer payouts
Venmo or PayPal, handled by Round.
Consumer support
We answer shopper questions so your team doesn’t have to.
Reporting
Redemption counts and program updates whenever you want them.
Made for how beverage brands run rebates
Multi-buy offers
Buy 2, save $2. Buy a 12-pack, get $5 back. Any purchase requirement you can print, we can validate.
Trial for new items
Drive first purchases of a new SKU, flavor or pack size.
National, regional or local
One state or all of them. Pricing is per program, not per state.
Budget control
Cap total redemptions with “while supplies last” language so you never pay out more than you funded. Per-person limits if you want them.
Long-running offers
Printed materials stay in market for months or years, and the program runs as long as your POS does.
Spanish-language pages
Offer pages can include a one-tap Spanish translation for bilingual markets.
Simple, flat pricing
One flat program fee covers setup, the claim page, offer terms and the first six months of administration. After that you pay the rebate amount plus a small per-redemption processing fee. No per-state charges and no surprise line items.
Rebate questions brands ask us
How fast do shoppers get paid?
Usually within 48 to 72 hours after a claim is approved, by Venmo or PayPal.
Do shoppers need to download an app?
No. The QR code opens a mobile web page. Shoppers fill out a short form and upload a photo of their receipt.
How do you stop fraud and duplicate claims?
Every receipt is reviewed before payout. Claims that don’t match the offer, or that repeat a receipt already submitted, are declined. You can also add per-person limits and a total redemption cap.
Can alcohol brands run rebates?
Yes, in many states, though the rules vary by state and by product. We build the program around the states your legal team approves and draft the terms for their review. Round is the program administrator; your legal team makes the final compliance calls.
How long does setup take?
Most programs are built and ready for print as soon as the offer details and creative are final. Send the QR code to your printer and the page is live when the offer starts.
Can you run a sweepstakes alongside the rebate?
Yes. Round also runs sweepstakes and prize fulfillment, so one partner can handle your whole promotion calendar.
