Snack Cashback Programs

PepsiCo's PepCoin Program Shares Rewards to PayPal & Venmo

With a PepCoin account, people who purchase snacks and drinks from PepsiCo will be able to validate their purchases and get credits towards their PayPal or Venmo account. This loyalty program lets users scan codes on products with their mobile phone to get 10% cashback on all qualifying purchases and an automatic transfer to their account when their balance reaches $2. To get these rewards, members must buy a participating snack and drink and scan those products within 48 hours of each other to earn credit towards cashing out.

As well as being able to get rewarded for enjoying products from brands like Mountain Dew, Lipton, Lay’s and Doritos, people also have the chance to earn bonus offers periodically.
