I signed up for Upromise with so much excitement that I told my dad and sister to sign up. Three weeks later, and my excitement has dwindled.
The deal is, you sign up, register your credit cards, shop their affiliate network, and you earn cash back that is applied to your Sallie Mae student loan balance quarterly. I use my credit card a great deal for work, so I figured I could at least earn enough for one payment every year.
I’ve used my registered credit card numerous times, and shopped through their affiliate links, and I don’t have a single cent in my account.
I don’t know if the purchases haven’t been verified yet or if there is a problem with my account, but I feel like I’ve invested alot of time and energy into setting up my account and I’ve yet to see any benefit.
Anyone have any experiences with Upromise, good or bad?
I have UPromise. I have never attached my CC’s though, to afraid to do that. I do however occasionally receive contributions through purchases I make using my registered store cards. It not much though.
Good to hear that it actually works. I think I have about $5 to be contributed.
