Chase Freedom Card is not a great rewards card for your general purchases now. And this credit card always offers $50 sign up bonus for new customers. Now this Chase Freedom Card is offering $100 bonus via the link: http://www.chasefreedomnow.com/100-cash-back/. If you visit the regular www.chasefreedomnow.com, they still offer $50 bonus. So it is a great chance to earn $100 bonus.
Note about how to get the $100 bonus:
You will receive $100 in bonus rebates with this bonus offer, which can be redeemed for a $100 check. To qualify and receive your bonus, you must make qualifying transactions totaling $500 or more during the first 3 months from account opening. Qualifying transactions include purchases, balance transfers, and any checks that are used to access your account, and exclude cash advances. After qualifying, please allow 6 to 8 weeks for bonus rebates to post to your account. To be eligible for this bonus offer, account must be open and not in default at the time of fulfillment. This one-time bonus offer is valid only for first-time cardmembers with new accounts. Existing cardmembers/accounts are not eligible for this bonus offer.
This Chase Freedom Card is offering 1% cashback now. This card is also offering 0% introductory APR on purchases. Length of your introductory period will be either 12 billing cycles from account opening for purchases or 6 billing cycles from account opening for purchases depending on our review of your application and credit history.
Today I received an email from PayPal that there is a $100 bonus for using Bill Me Later on PayPal. I think this is a great opportunity for people who have good credit and can pay off bills on time using Bill Me Later. The link to this promotion page is here ($100 bonus).
The rule of this promotion is pretty simple:
- You’ll receive up to $100 off as a credit. If you spend less than the offer amount, your discount will be equal to the amount of your purchase (before tax and shipping). For example, if your offer is “up to $100 off” and you spend $5, you will receive a discount of $5. Please allow 1-2 billing cycles for this amount to be reflected on your Bill Me Later statement.
- It’s a limited time offer that’s only available through PayPal. Complete your purchase before midnight ET on October 31st, 2009 to receive this offer. Limit one per customer.
- Select “Yes, I’d like No Payments for 90 Days…” to be eligible to receive the promotional offer.
Interestingly, there are other similar offers but with different bonus amounts: $25, $10 and even $0. (you only need to change the amount off at the above link) So it is possible that this is a invitation-only event which means that if you do not receive the email from PayPal associated with your email address, you are not eligible to get the $100 bonus.
Bill Me Later is not a PayPal company and offers finance services for online shopping. If you pay off the balance in full before the promotion date, you will not be charged money by Bill Me Later. Otherwise you have to pay a little fees.
Another point you need to know is when you apply for the Bill Me Later account, you are subjected to a “Hard Pull“.
