You earn 5% back on eligible purchases at participating Santa Clarita businesses in the Plum Commerce Center, Bouquet Plaza and Old Town Newhall. If you link a credit or debit card in the app, rewards are tracked automatically. Prefer not to link a card? Just select the business in the app, tap “Claim Rewards,” and upload a photo of your receipt. Rewards typically appear in your wallet within 48 hours.

You’ll earn 5% back on every eligible purchase, up to a maximum of $5.00 in rewards per transaction. Each user can earn up to $100 in total rewards, while program funds last.

Any business in the Plum Commerce Center and Bouquet Plaza off Bouquet Canyon Road are eligible. Eligible businesses also include businesses located on Main Street in Old Town Newhall. Use the “Discovery” tab in the app to explore participating restaurants, convenience stores and services in these shopping centers.

Rewards must be used on future purchases. After making another purchase at a participating Santa Clarita business, open the app, tap “Redeem”, choose the business and upload your receipt (or select your linked transaction). Once verified, you’ll receive your cash reward via your preferred payout method.

No. Rewards cannot be applied instantly or used as a discount at the register. You must make a new purchase first, then redeem your rewards afterward through the app.

Check if you submitted a Claim (to earn rewards) or a Redeem (to cash out rewards). If you only claimed but didn’t redeem, open the app, tap “Redeem”, select the business, and upload your receipt.
