Registration Open for Small Business Saturday!

You can register now for Small Business Saturday.


Every eligible American Express credit card can get up to $30 of statement credits for free.

The credits are in $10 increments so you need to spend $10 on each card 3 times to take full advantage.  If you spend $30 once you will only get $10.

I have always used my cards to get gift cards to one store.  The gift cards can then be combined later.



This year, Small Business Saturday is November 29th 2014.   A limited number of cards can be registered so you don't want to wait too long after today to register

Terms and Conditions:

• Every American Express credit card that has a separate 15 digit account number on the front can be registered separately.   
• Authorized users from credit card accounts that are processed by American Express and issued by American Express have a separate account number on the front and the authorized user card can be registered for a separate $30. Just look at the front of your Authorized user and you will see a different 15 digit number than the primary. 
• American Express Every Day is an example.
• Authorizes users from credit card accounts that are processed by American Express, but are issued by another company will have the same 15 digit account number as the primary and are not eligible for a separate promotion.
• Fidelity American Express is an example, which is processed by American Express, but issued by FIA Card Services.
• Prepaid and Gift cards do not work for these promotions, except Serve and Bluebird (Bluebird added this year)
• Serve allows for up to 4 subaccounts which should also be eligible.
• Personal business cards are eligible, but corporate cards are not.

Use Discover Credit Cards to Pay Bills for Free with Evolve!

I just got an email from Evolve Money who announced that they just added a feature allowing you to pay your bills with a Discover Credit Card for free.  

The plan is to add the ability to pay with a Visa or Mastercard starting in 2015.

You can find more details on Evolve here.

Loading Serve with Fidelity American Express - Still No Cash Advance Fees

Recently, many credit cards have coding loads to Serve as Cash Advances, which carries a fee and makes it not worthwhile.


I have always used my Fidelity American Express (2% cashback everywhere) to load to Serve for myself and family members and I am relieved to report that loads are working as normal.

Serve allows for $1,000 a month of free credit card loads ($1,500 if you link Serve to Softcard) so if you use your Fidelity AMEX you will get a free $20-30 per month with no fees.

Unlimited Photo Storage for Amazon Prime Members

 

 

Disclaimer: I receive a referral commission for the following link(s) and I greatly appreciate supporting the site: Amazon


Amazon Prime is now offering unlimited cloud storage for Prime Members in a program called Amazon Cloud Drive.  This is on top of their 2 day free shipping, Amazon Instant Streaming Video and their Kindle lending library.


It's also a clever ploy to make sure people keep Prime even when prices increase.  If you have backed up all your photos with them, you are probably going to want to stay with them.


I don't have Prime (other than a 30 day trial) and I don't plan on getting it for this reason, but it is a good benefit to have and some people might be interested in signing up.


Not a prime member?  You can get an Amazon Prime 30 Day Trial for free to see if you like it.

New Softcard Promotions - 4,000 United Miles and $150 of Amazon Gift Cards

Softcard is a mobile payment system that works on certain smartphones.  Check out eligibility here.

They have been and are being quite aggressive in recruiting new usage.  They have two new promotions that just started at the beginning of November.

1) 4,000 United Miles

This is the more appealing promotion to me due to its relative ease:

Add a Chase United Credit card to Softcard.  Add your United Frequent Flyer Number to the account by following the steps in the link.

Once your card is added, you will get 2,500 bonus miles for your first purchase with the Chase United in November using Softcard.

For every month afterwards until the end of February that you use make one purchase with the Chase United using Softcard, you will get another 500 bonus miles for a total of 4,000 bonus miles.

Terms and Conditions*Receive 2,500 United MileagePlus Miles (“Miles”) on your 8 -digit United MileagePlus Program Account (“Account”) by: (i) provisioning your United MileagePlus® Credit Card issued by Chase Bank USA, N.A. (“Eligible Card”) to Softcard; (ii) registering your Account number for the offer; and (iii) completing a transaction with your Eligible Card using Softcard (“Eligible Transaction”) between November 1, 2014 and the expiration of the offer on February 28, 2015 (the “Offer Period”). Receive an additional 500 Miles for each subsequent calendar month of the Offer Period in which you complete an Eligible Transaction. Maximum award of 4,000 Miles per Eligible Card under this offer. Award Miles will generally be credited to your Account within 6-8 weeks after the end of the calendar month in which the Miles were earned. Offer expires on February 28, 2015, but offer is subject to change or cancellation at any time. Chase Bank USA, N.A. is not responsible for the provision of or the failure to provide the promotional offers. Miles will post directly to your United MileagePlus account and will not appear on your Chase statement.
Miles accrued, awards, and benefits issued are subject to change and are subject to the rules of the United MileagePlus program, including without limitation the Premier® program (the “MileagePlus Program”), which are expressly incorporated herein.

Taxes and fees related to award travel are the responsibility of the member. Bonus award miles, award miles and any other miles earned through non-flight activity do not count toward qualification for Premier status unless expressly stated otherwise. The accumulation of mileage or Premier status or any other status does not entitle members to any vested rights with respect to the MileagePlus Program. All calculations made in connection with the MileagePlus Program, including without limitation with respect to the accumulation of mileage and the satisfaction of the qualification requirements for Premier status, will be made by United Airlines and MileagePlus in their discretion and such calculations will be considered final.

United and MileagePlus are registered service marks. For complete details about the MileagePlus Program, go to www.united.com.

2)  Up to $150 in Amazon Gift Cards

This is less exciting to me since it requires many more purchases, but it still can be lucrative.


Use any participating credit card through Softcard 5 times before the end of December and you will get a $10 Amazon Gift Card for each 5 purchases, up to $30 of Amazon Gift Cards, which is a total of 15 purchases for the $30.

Up to 5 separate credit cards are eligible for the $30 of Amazon gift cards for a total of 75 purchases and $150 of Amazon gift cards.
