Our Journey

ShopBack was born one night in 2014 when co-founders Henry and Joel were toying around (with entrepreneurial ideas) in Henry's car, sparking the concept of earning Cashback while shopping online. The ShopBack Group has now grown to become the leading shopping, rewards, and payments platform in Asia-Pacific, with 45 million shoppers across 12 markets and more than half a million transactions powered for 20,000 partners daily. Fresh off its debut in the European market, ShopBack is seeking thrill-seekers to join the journey of building The World's Most Rewarding Way to Shop. Get ready for the ride of a lifetime: a blend of startup spirit woven into a solid business foundation.
