I hope this is the right place, anyone heard of this place? Apparently they're trying to compete with paypal, you get $25 for registering with them, but they ask for your SSN, so I wanted to know if anyone else has delt with them or knows about them at all....

I'd be cautious about them mainly because of them wanting your SSN...as well as the fact that no one accepts them...whereas everyone accepts paypal
but they're mainly trying to compete with ING it looks like...they're an actual bank...or at least they claim to be...which would explain the SSN....
personally, I wouldn't do it...

I got an invite for this also but never checked it out yet. I know I won't do it if they are asking for a SSN.

I wouldn't give my ssn, but revolution.com, revolutionmoney.com, revolutionhealth.com and revolutionmoneyexchange.com were started by Steve Case (The founder of AOL).
The board includes:
Former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers, former Mastercard CEO Russell Hogg, and former Charles Schwab chief executive David Potruck.
All seems to be on the up & up, but I'm still not giving my social :D

I did it and got my $25 credited to me within minutes. The accounts are issued by First Bank & Trust Brookings, SD they are a member of the FDIC. They are listed on the FDIC website.

Yes but will this site end up being a complete flop like greenzap or whatever that was a couple years ago that tried to compete with paypal??

I took the plunge and did it too. I looked every where on-line to see if I could find anything negative about it and I didn't. I figure between dh and I we will make at least $60.

I did end up signing up, and I got my $25 and transfered it into my personal bank account already, I also referred my DH and he has to do his still. I referred a bunch of other people but haven't seen/heard anything yet.

You know, I never got my $10 referral for referring dh. How long does it take to show up?

Mine showed up within 5 minutes or so...let me take that back. I got an instant email and then it showed up as pending right away in the account transactions portion.

Hmm, I think maybe I got jipped out of $10. I signed up on Thursday and verified my bank accounts today. I thought maybe I would get after I was verified. Oh well, I still made 50 bucks :).

Did he use the same email account that you send the referral to?

Yes, but when I had him sign up he had to use a different e-mail address or else it wouldn't go through. I guess that is where I screwed up.

If you used different email addies then what the refferal was sent to then no you won't get your referral bonus

you don't have to update the copyright date if there have been no changes but most people do since they are always making some sort of miniature change and it's protected under their copyright. it's usually the first date that the work was published. since it's only march, there is a chance that they may not have changed their main site design.

If you sent it to one email address, but he used a different email address to sign up, then no, you will not get the $10. And yes, I did get a notification and it immediately showed up in the pending transactions.

I signed up. Found several WAHM sites that take RME as payment- but it's mostly for cloth diapers & such, and since I dont have a CD'er anymore I dont need them. (awesome for anyone that does though)

3-12-2008, 9:40 AM

If you can let me know what you are looking for maybe i can point you in the right directions

Since this is technically a 'bank', I wonder if it will show up as another account on my credit bureau?
