Just Starting Out: An Introduction to Ebates

There are often on line deals mentioned on my blog at places like Kohls, Lands End, and TONS of other on line shopping companies. Ebates is a GREAT way to maximize your savings while shopping online.

You simply register at Ebates.com and open an account at no cost. Cash back is accumulated in your account when you shop at any of the online retailers listed on the website. The percentage of cash back varies from 1% to 26%. Ebates.com pays you the amount you have accumulated four times a year in the form of a check or PayPal.

Is Ebates trustworthy? Here's a direct quote from their website:

"Ebates is the pioneer and leader of online Cash Back Shopping. The company was founded in 1998 by two Deputy District Attorneys in Silicon Valley who used to prosecute online fraud & identity theft before starting Ebates (so you can be sure we are very into secure online transactions!). So go ahead, sign up and start shopping now. Joining Ebates is always free - you'll never pay us anything. And four times a year or more, we'll mail you a Big Fat Check, or transfer the money to your PayPal account if you'd prefer. We can even send the money to your favorite charity. All 100% free.

People often ask: "This sounds too good to be true, how are you able to do it?" It really is quite simple. Just like almost every other online shopping center, we get a commission from the stores when you make a purchase. Instead of keeping that money - like almost all other sites do - we share it with you!

So, as long as 1200+ of the world's top online stores are happy to pay a bonus to attract the new, valuable customers we send their way, Ebates is going to continue to send Big Fat Checks to our satisfied customers across the globe."

And here you'll be able to find the answers to questions like, "how quickly is the cash credited to my account?" and "when do I get my cash payment?".

So, what are you waiting for? Hurry over here to Ebates and start today...you'll get a $5 bonus just for signing up!
