I'm hearing things like 5% and 2.5% annual kickbacks on purchased goods and services.

Anyone here using this?
Is it easy to manage?
Do you have problems with the service?
Are promises kept?

It works very well. I do all my shoprite and game shoppng on it. They give you back 5% at the end of the year on the card to use again. I also have my insurance through them(Integrisure) as the discount applies there as well. Never had any problems with them. They deduct the amount at the end of the month.

Why would one not make use of this, if you can get a percentage back in cash at the end of the year? :confused:

Always wondered how these cards works, by offering customers 5% off purchases, the retailer must pay a percentage fee to cape consumers for each transaction, same as with credit cards, does anyone one know what this percentage is for cape consumers? Just curious to know how cape consumers run a profitable business by offering 5% to customers. Suppose they are paying out this bonus at the end of the year to gain some interest in the meantime.
