You can redeem those kicks for free gift cards immediately to stores like Target, Walmart, and Amazon.com and much more. It’s that easy! All you have to do is open the Shopkick app and scan select product barcodes. Wondering where to find scans? Target, Walmart, drug stores and grocery stores typically have the most kicks for scanning, but be sure to check the Shopkick app for the latest inventory.

Shopkick spreads smiles one scan at a time! I love seeing other shopkickers in the store.  It’s like a secret society when you both see that blue kick circle light up! – Michelle N.

My kids treat scans like a treasure hunt! We enjoy the time together and all get exercise walking round the stores.  I’ve used my kicks to buy them gifts that were out of my budget.  — Ashley G.
