Sift - Automatic refunds from hidden credit card benefits

Sift automatically gets you money back when prices drop and unlocks all the other great hidden benefits that you probably were not aware of! Sift analyzes hidden benefits that are buried in complex credit card policies and files the appropriate claims on user’s behalf, getting consumers back tens of billions currently left on the table every year.

I've been using SIFT since it first came out in private access only (maybe 5 or 6 months ago?) and it's definitely one of the more powerful price tracking apps. So many people don't realize that the majority of credit cards offer price protection, refund protection, damage and theft protection. Gorgeous app and love what you guys are working on. Congrats on the PH launch!

I buy pretty much everything online so this app is just what I need. It tracks my purchases & shipments and claims a refund if prices drop. It also shows the extended warranties and refund policies that my credit card offers...I didn’t even realize I had these benefits

Pros:

It helps me get the most out of my credit card benefits. It gets me money back!!!

Cons:

None, I don’t know of any other app that could do all this

Awesome work. 2 questions: 1) are you planning to expand to European markets? 2) ETA for Android app?
abhinavdubey
@alasaarela Thanks, Mikko! 1) We would love to expand but we have our hands full in the US market! We are studying credit card adoption + benefits outside of the US and will have a plan soon 2) Web + Android coming in a month or so.

@vishaldwivedi9 Hi Vishal as I said above, we would love to expand but we have our hands full in the US market! We are studying credit card adoption + benefits outside of the US and will have a plan soon. Stay tuned!

Great to see this launched. I was in the private access as well. Can you tell me how this differs from Earny and Paribus? I know Earny only handles price drop but does Sift handle it better? How does the app handle price drops that were made with a credit-card that had been deactivated due to a lost card ? Also the app has been a bit buggy. Not able to add a secondary chase sapphire preferred card.

@ivan_witteborg Hi Ivan - we are different in that we unlock all the credit card insurance benefits on all the major credit cards (i.e. warranties, returns, theft and damage, trip delay etc...). We support price protection for all the major credit cards and for now we are still free. As for the issues, we fixed a lot of the bugs with recent updates. If you still have issues please email us at support@siftwallet.com and we'll get things fixed up asap!

It keeps badgering me about a price reduction on a product I already returned to Amazon. How do I tell it to ignore that purchase?
Janne Salminen
@jonathanabrams If you want to stop tracking a product, you need to go to the purchases screen, and swipe left on top of the product that you want to stop tracking and select "dont track". Or go to the product details view of that product and click the menu on top right corner and select "dont track". i hope this solves the issue for you
Jon Abrams
@jannsalm That solved it, thanks!

Keep up the good work and maybe work on the UI of the app a little more. The value prop is great, but I often times am incredibly confused by what I should be tapping.

Pros:

I've gotten back at least $100 over the past 3-6 months.

Cons:

It's already a great product! Only cons I can think of are that I'd like the price monitoring to apply to a wider variety of storefronts.
