$10 for joining c2it (something like paypal)

[LichenP]

Remember when paypal used to give out $10 for signing up? citibank is doing it now. Go to www.c2it.com

Send Cash from any linked Citibank Credit Card/Debit Card 1.0 % of transaction, minimum $.50
Send Cash from any linked Other Credit Card/Debit Card 1.0 % of transaction, minimum $.50
Send Cash from any linked Checking or Savings Account 1.0 % of transaction, minimum $.50
Request a Check $ 3.00 [fee not waived]

Domestic Service 1 day limit 4 consecutive day limit
Send Cash $500 $1000
Get Cash $1000 $2000

Sounds good for business purposes, but I don't think many people will want to pay to pay for ebay and such.

Plus, if their plan is anything like Paypal's, you only have to complete 298579283471093580917234 tasks before you qualify for the money...

well ill just cut to the chase and ask the 10 dollar question:

Can I sign up and get 10 bucks, and then axe it??

hehe, hey, 10 bucks is a monthly cc payment

cheap booty

By taking advantage of the C2it trial period, and clever use of a reward type credit card, you can rack up some serious miles/points/rewards for free.

Check out the details at fatwallet's hotdeals forum here.

yup, you can just sign up and axe it. and actually i do believe it's 30 bucks, not 10, since you can sign up for up to 3 accounts per person according to their terms and conditions. so you get the 10 bucks when you send cash for the first time, so create 3 accounts, have each send some money to the next one or something, wait about a day, get 30 bucks and close your accounts.

i did this a while back, though i also did the rewards deal that the previous poster mentioned, and racked up another 300 bucks or so in free rewards dollars on my credit card before they called me up and politely asked me to stop haha

I might be interested in that transfering thing. But I don't have any rewards cards yet. How long does it take for Amazon to get the card to you after you sign up? And how long does it take for Amazon to lock it/ask to stop? Anyone recommend any reward cards that can sign up/receive card quickly?

 

[Healey]

The Amazon card takes about 2 weeks to arrive. I did the deal for the entire 3 month trial period, now only 1 month.

They, c2it, called and asked what I was doing. I told them I was transferring money between my wife's business and mine. They said okay and that was it.

The only limits I hit were from the CC maxing out. Follow the hints and have at least 2 reward cards ready.

Do you really need to close your account after one month? I mean there should be no charge if you don't send the money, right?

 

[Healey]

no need to close accounts, just don't use them. there are no minimum usage or maintenance fees.
