We chose Capital One Shopping as best for price comparisons because this browser extension and app automatically compare pricing on eligible items at more than 30,000 retailers. This app even includes and compares shipping costs and membership pricing.

While Capital One shopping is a coupon app that automatically applies discounts at more than 30,000 retailers, we chose them for our ranking based on the fact the app also compares pricing and shows you incredible deals. If Capital One shopping finds a better price on an item, they'll even provide you with a link so you can purchase the item elsewhere.

In addition to applying coupon codes at participating stores, Capital One shopping also lets you earn rewards on eligible purchases, which can be redeemed for gift cards with retailers like Walmart and eBay.

Note that this tool is available as a browser extension, but that you can also download Capital One shopping on your iOS or Android device. Capital One shopping also has mostly excellent reviews online with the App Store and Google Play.

The Rakuten Cash Back Visa Credit Card offers an extra 3% back on eligible purchases through Rakuten, as well as 1% back on all other purchases. And remember, rewards with this card are offered on top of the cash back you earn with the Rakuten app or browser extension.
