SaveUp.com - Get Rewarded for Saving

SaveUp - Get Rewarded for Saving






SaveUp.com  "rewards" you for saving money.  You get bonuses for putting money in checking account and paying down your debt.  The credits will update automatically.  When you have your bonuses you can use that to enter into raffles for good prizes, though the odds of winning are not great.  

You can enter up to 3 raffles a day by default, but you can buy more entries with the credits you earn.

If you are consistent with it, you will win something good eventually, but it might take some time.

It's a free program, give it a shot if you have some time.  You never know what might happen.  Just click on the banner to get started.

Chase Freedom, Discover More and Citi Dividend - Activate Your 5% Quarter 4 Categories

Activate your 5% Categories for Chase Freedom, Discover More and Citi Dividend

Disclaimer - The Discover offers are no longer valid.

These categories are from October 1st - December 31st and focus on holiday shopping

  • Chase Freedom - 5% back on Airlines, Hotels, Best Buy and Kohl's.  Great for people who are going on interviews.
    • Chase Exclusives -  with Chase Checking Account, you will get an annual 10% bonus on all your points.  If you earned 10,000 points, you will get a 1,000 point bonus that year.
    • Most important 5% card - if you only want one 5% card, get the Chase Freedom
  • Discover it™  - 5% for online purchases and department stores.  Maximum of $75 cashback (spending $1,500 during the 3 months)
    • Most important this quarter as I do a lot of shopping online.
    • Important card to have, but secondary to Chase Freedom for those who don't like to have too many cards
  • Citi Dividend - 5% for Electronic stores, Toy stores and Macy's
    • I am not a big fan of this card.  Their 5% categories are usually inferior.  I have only added it because I was able to get a $200 sign up bonus after spending $500, which is the best sign up bonus for a card without an annual fee.  Even though it is clearly an outdated link (you can see the categories from January), I still got my $200 without having to call because the link still does work.

Oren's Money Saver has now reached 20,000 pageviews!  Thank you everyone for reading - and American Express for all that free money ;)  (Make sure to get your free $25 from serve!)


It took from April 15th until September 18th to get the next 10,000 pageviews, only five months!  

Here is a graph of the trends in pageviews (The slope is down for this month because it resets at the beginning of the month and as the page views increase, the slope will straighten up.)



Hopefully, the next 10,000 are even faster!
