Offermatic.com not bad!

A General Discussion forum for cars and other topics, and a great place to introduce yourself if you are new to NICO!

I am the self proclaimed Slick Dealer here...

Anyways, I have been using a site called offermatic for a while, i checkin on it weekly, but it essentially gives your cash back on top of all other discounts, on your existing credit/debit cards. It pulls your info the same way mint.com does and the site is legit (I work at a bank, i wouldnt hand over my info without checking it out) but its pretty cool.

For instance, because I bought gas @ valero last month, this month if I go back I will get $5 cash back from the transaction.
I just bought a $10 subway GC for $5 because I ate at subway last month.

Check it out, sign up and kinda forget about it and you will be pleased... Id suggest doing the same with upromise as well!

Do you sell my personal or individual data?
Never. When we send you an offer from one of our advertisers, it's based on your anonymous purchase history. Advertisers do not know your name, email address, or location. Only if you choose to purchase an offer will that information be provided to the offer merchant so you can redeem the offer with them. We do not - and will not - provide or sell any personally identifiable information in order to present you an offer.

What do you mean when you say that signup is "anonymous"
It means we do not collect any information that personally identifies you. There are only 3 things you need to create an Offermatic account; Email address, Password, and Zip code.

Offermatic, a start-up newly seeded by Bessemer Venture Partners and Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, offers targeted deals related to a person’s credit-card purchases - all privately. So, for example, if someone buys a lawn mower at Home Depot, they could get an email from Offermatic touting special rebate offers at Lowe’s. “Instead of generic deals, we want to make deals very personalized, very relevant,” Offermatic Chief Executive Faisal Qureshi tells VentureWire, calling the company a cross between Groupon and Mint.com. “You’ll only get deals that match up with your purchasing history.”

Cool, but is it worth it to let some third-party company know all of your personal spending habits?

They already know man...
The machine that is tracking us all and our spending is too big to avoid, might as well go all in and get some cash back on it!

Take the 2nd link if you like, it just makes me less likely to post information that I think you guys enjoy thats not car related.
Referring people helps you build points quicker, just like referring people to NICO builds the community quicker.

When people were getting $50 checks in the mail from Airborne(remember that one?) and other freebies, a referral link never mattered. lol

The way ALL these sites work is based upon networking, so you are going to give them access to look at every damn thing you buy, but lift your nose at it when it may also benefit another nico member, the person who turned you onto it no less!

No one complained when I listed the link to get a $20 amazon GC for $10 (that was a referral link too)
Theres nothing wrong with a referral link IMO as long as it doesnt conflict with NICO business and its not being SPAMMED throughout the forums.

Hey now, I didn't say it that way! Don't be so sensitive! I just wanted to hear the full disclosure.

Its ok if you dont want to take the referral link, but thats the whole point, they will pay out extra for life, read up, its legit.
I offer cash kickbacks to good earners lol.

I really like their hook on ebay, you buy something, and YOU get 20%+ of the fees ebay collected from the seller!
