Furnishing a home office or upgrading your team’s workspace isn’t cheap. Desks, ergonomic chairs, filing cabinets, and lighting can easily run into the hundreds—or thousands—of dollars. But with the right strategy, you don’t have to pay full price. By stacking cashback apps like Fluz, Rakuten, and Ibotta, you can save a significant amount on every purchase, whether you’re shopping online or in-store.

Here’s how to maximize your savings on office furniture using a few smart cashback combinations.

Step 1: Start with cashback  Gift Cards on Fluz

Before heading to retailers like Staples or Office Depot, use Fluz to buy a digital gift card. These gift cards work like cash and are accepted both online and in physical stores. You can shop discounted Office Depot gift cards or buy Staples gift cards online, all while earning instant cashback through the Fluz platform.

Unlike traditional gift cards, Fluz allows you to purchase the exact amount you need right before checkout—perfect for big-ticket items like standing desks or office chairs.

To get started, download the Fluz app and link your preferred payment method.

Step 2: Activate Rakuten for Online Cashback

Rakuten is a popular cashback portal that partners with hundreds of online furniture and office retailers. Once you’ve purchased your Fluz gift card, head to Rakuten and search for stores like Staples, Overstock, or Wayfair. By shopping through Rakuten’s link, you’ll earn additional cashback on top of what you already received through Fluz.

Installing the Rakuten browser extension makes this process seamless—it will alert you whenever a site offers cashback.

Step 3: Use Ibotta for In-Store or Hybrid Purchases

If you’re planning to shop in-store at retailers like Walmart or Target, activate offers in the Ibotta app before making your purchase. While Ibotta doesn’t always feature furniture-specific offers, you can often find cashback on home office accessories like organizers, storage bins, or lighting.

Submit your receipt after purchase or link your store loyalty card in the app for automatic tracking.

Pro Tip: Combine All Three for Maximum Value

Here’s what a stacked savings strategy could look like:

• Buy a $250 Staples gift card via Fluz to get instant cashback.
  
• Use that gift card to pay for a desk you found through Rakuten’s portal—earning additional cashback.
  
• If the retailer is supported, check Ibotta for relevant offers and submit your receipt for even more savings.
  

By using all three platforms together, you turn one furniture purchase into a triple-win.
