Re: Interested in the Ebates Card

That's a nice chunk of change considering it's not a signup bonus.

I shopped at Ebates maybe once. A Visa is a Visa though and I'd definitely use it more if I got this card.

Re: Interested in the Ebates Card

I suggest always checking cashbackmonitor.com first.    Another site + any 1.5%+  card will often beat the ebates rate + their 3% card.   Of course, bonuses can change that but other sites have specials too,   But really all about which merchant you are using, hence doing the cashbacknonitor.com search first.

totally agree.. usually discover deal + a 2% card is better than ebates + 3%.. or upromise + 5% upromise card beats most other sites/ways..

I agree here too, and would add the SavingStar card is up there with Upromise also (also 5%)

The only somewhat attractive deal I see with the Ebates CC is for AGCs. 3.7% back with the Arrival and TCB, or 4% back with the Ebates CC and Ebates portal. But since TCB runs 2.25% specials all the time, you're better off waiting. (And the Discover Miles card + TCB would be even better even at the normal 1.5% rate, assuming Discover gives you a cash advance CL high enough, since AGC purchases on Discover reportedly appear as CAs before posting as purchases.)
