How are the participating merchants selected?

There are a few ways merchants are selected. Dosh® has an ongoing relationship with many merchants, and you’ll see those. We’re also able to see some of the top retailers and restaurants Ellevest members are visiting (at an aggregated level), and we’re working with Dosh to get you discounts at those places, too. You can also use cash back rewards to help support small businesses. Local restaurants and retailers can work with Dosh directly to get their location and offer on to the platform. You’ll see participating small businesses near you in the rewards section of the Ellevest mobile app or on the Spend account detail page on web.

The Ellevest Rewards program is powered by Dosh®, an unaffiliated third-party provider, which offers Ellevest banking members cash back on Ellevest debit card purchases from select merchants. Each Ellevest Rewards, Powered by Dosh program offer is available for a limited time only for qualifying purchases at participating merchants (subject to the particular offer and full program terms). Cash back amounts will vary and offers may become unavailable without notice. Additional terms, conditions and exclusions apply and can be found in the Ellevest Membership Terms and Conditions Agreement.
