Perplexity users in the U.S. can get 50% back (up to $50) in PayPal Rewards Points on eligible Instant Buy purchases paid with PayPal from November 25-December 3, 2025 and December 11–31, 2025, subject to PayPal’s promo terms and limited quantities. This refreshed offer is only available once per PayPal account and does not apply if a reward was already redeemed during the previous Black Friday–Cyber Monday campaign.​

How it works

  • Browse products on Perplexity and look for items marked “Instant Buy.”

  • Select an eligible merchant product and proceed to checkout.

  • At checkout, choose “Pay with PayPal” (not credit card) to qualify.​

  • Complete your purchase and receive 5,000 PayPal Rewards Points (redeemable for up to $50) in your PayPal account, typically within 14 days after qualifying.​

Eligibility

  • US residents 18+ years old with a valid personal PayPal account in good standing.​

  • Purchase must be made via Perplexity’s Instant Buy flow using “Pay with PayPal” at checkout; credit card payments are not eligible.​

  • Limit one reward per PayPal account during this offer period; accounts that already redeemed a reward in the November 25–December 2 (Black Friday–Cyber Monday) offer are not eligible for another reward.​

Eligible merchants

Products must be marked “Instant Buy” and are available from select merchants, including Wayfair, Abercrombie & Fitch, and thousands of other merchants on BigCommerce, Shopware, and Wix platforms. The reward only applies to the specific item purchased in the qualifying Instant Buy transaction.​
