Fam, do you have a paypal debit card? If so, do you use it for everyday purchases? or just for online stuff?
Well, I have had one for a while now and really never used it in public. I would always use my Wash. Mutal ATM card instead.
Well, I have stopped using my ATM card and started using my Paypal card...why? The Cash Back Bonus!!!!
Fam, WMy Bank does not give me "ONE RED CENT" when I use their card, but Paypal pays me when I do. I just moticed this last week after putting a gas oline purchse on my paypal card, I got almost $0.50 cents from the Paypal Cash Back Bonus.
So I started using the Paypal card and in one week I have done this
.44
.90
.18
.26
.52
.52
==========
Total: $2.82
Well, I know that $2.82 is not alot of money, but considering that the bank's ATM card would have netted me $0.0...I am switching!!! I'll just use my online banking to transfer funds to the Paypal card and that is free of charge from, my bank:D
Lemme do some math....let's say I up the purchases on the Paypal debit card to equal about $3.00 per week.
$3.00 x 52 (week a year)...thats $156.00 a year back in my pocket?
Hmmm, I'm sold.

Now admin, I just did a Pay Pal transaction the other week, and somehow I ordered my card too, cause I didnt want to pay that transfer fee or wait for it to get into checking, ya know what I mean, so today I activated because of you. I had the card for 3 weeks chillin, but my question is, do you have to transfer money from your checking into it to use it. Or do they automatically tax the account when needed? So in other words, do I need a balance in my pay pal account to use it.
Holla.

Do you have to have money flowing INTO your paypal account to get the debit card.
I only use paypal to spend but this sounds cool as hell.

Rock, yeah I transfer like $75 a week into my PP acct. That is the amount of gas that I have to buy per week for the car. Funnt thing is...I used to have a Shell Gas card and that mutha was charging me over 14% interest and if you have ever noticed...shell gas is like the highest gas out there? In other words, I was giving money to the Shell company, hand over fist.
Now, the way to get the bonus is to use that PP card as your ATM or Credit card. If you buy something online and choose the PP payment option, you will NOT get the bonus. You have to use ii as a Credit Card (Master Card) or the Debit Card.
Even if you just use it for Gas when you fill up your cawr...you'll get the bonus.

I love my Paypal VISA.
But now the Rush Visa are also giving cash back so I have to juggled using both of them.
With the Rush Card the bonuses are usually given all at once at the end of the month based on your monthly spending. It's nice to think you broke and suddenly notice and extra $15 added to your account.
I am through with banks and checking accounts. I have a saving account so that I can transfer my mony to my paypal or rush card.
