Hey All!

After lots of feedback and some odd data we saw on our end, here's some additional recommendations:

Reminder: If you have other Cashback extensions DISABLE THEM - they could definitely try and claim credit for the transaction
Once you click 'Apply Now', complete the entire process at that time. This includes opening the account AND fully funding it with at least $125.
If you add $20 in one transaction and $105 in another, this may not track correctly. Deposit the full $125 all at once (recommend using the debit card option) to ensure your data tracks to us correctly
Not doing these things will at the very least delay processing your cashback and could potentially result in us not receiving your data as an eligible account.

Thanks,
AJ
I switched to sofi through slickdeals and have had nothing but an excellent experience with them. I got my dd bonus almost immediately. I sound like a shill but I'm not, been with slick deals way before sofi. I don't think I'll ever bank with anyone else again. 2% cb credit card and interest on my checking, I'm with them for the long haul.
Hey All!

Just wanted to pop in to say we're really excited to start using Slickdeals Rewards to handle these types of bonuses going forward. We've received a LOT of feedback around things that didn't work so well in the past with our rebates.

I actually did this process myself this morning to make sure it's working automatically and so long as you've installed our Extension and enrolled in Slickdeals Rewards it works seamlessly!

On that note, we've sunset the old Slickdeals Rebates program. You can read more about that here!

Thanks!
AJ

Hi there,

As mentioned above - this is not the same program as the rebates anybody has done in the past - we migrated this to our Slickdeals Rewards program and are handing this in a much more automatic way going forward. The only issues we've observed are if somebody has not disabled (or at least whitelisted Slickdeals + Extension) in their adblocker and/or have another cashback or coupon extension running at the same time.

Thanks,
AJ

If sofi doesn't have its' banking license, the disclaimer should not claim they are a bank. The implication is that this deal is for a bank, which afaik, sofi doesn't have a banking license. That fact should be called out.

They do have the bank charter, it's just not public information yet. That info will come out with the quarterly call here in a few days. Buy some stock now with their app because when this news does hit the market it's gonna pop.

I signed up for the prior promo in May, where I had to fill out the formstack form to get registered for the bonus. I never got it, anyone else have this same issue?

Quote from PurpleAppliance6541 :
Seems a little shady that you have to have the extension installed.
The extension is only required because we're still Beta testing the Slickdeals Rewards Program which we started inside of Extension. We do have plans to expand outside of that in the future, but are using it to test for now. It also helps ensure that you know you're getting cashback activated when you're on a site.

Quote from GuyD2665 :
Agreed, I did this for a previous offer a while back like this and it just ended up being nothing, rather a disappointment. I'm not really interested in taking video of the whole process and complaining to the BBB. I'm going to pass. I kind of felt like the purpose was to get my financial information in the end. My thought was, "Great, I'll make a deposit and I'll get a reward!" but nope, there were all these steps and it just seemed off to me, I felt like I'd given too much away and I walked away and changed my passwords . It seemed like a cheap grab. I wish all of you better luck on this one.
Quote from yuejdesigner85 :
Never got that bonus last time. Don't fall for it.
Quote from DannyM :
I signed up for this offer the last time it ran and never received the bonus. Don't do it.
Just wanted to clarify that this is NOT the same program that people had used in the past to get a bonus from SoFi. As stated in the deal, we are migrating to a new, more automated system (Slickdeals Rewards) which is the cashback program we're testing and opening up to the public now. This helps us automatically track and improves the experience overall. Most users are ending up getting paid within 30 days (usually closer to a week) without any big hiccups so long as the deal instructions are followed. And for the financial data piece, we are not allowed in any way to see your personal information whatsoever. We also have policies against selling data and do not practice that here. I also came from banking and that sort of information sharing would definitely not be legal. All we at Slickdeals know is that user 1234 signed up for SoFi and if we see it's been funded we will pay out rewards Smilie

Do I need to leave the $125 in the account for 30 days to get the bonus?. Or can I withdraw the $125 immediately after I deposit?
Hey there,

Nope, we actually tested that specific scenario. I'd suggest leaving it in there for 1-2 business days just to make sure it's accounted for, but after that you're fine to move it back out.

Thanks,
AJ

Hey Tyler!

So the email was combining two separate bonuses: we are providing a $75 bonus if you follow all the deal instructions above to install our extension, enroll in Slickdeals Rewards, and then open and fund the SoFi account. The other $100 is if you open the SoFi account and set up direct deposit based on their requirements. That $100 is provided by SoFi and is a promo that won't be related to Slickdeals. It looks like they issue a credit to your account directly based on what I read. We'll definitely get you the $75 portion on our end though Smilie

Thanks,
AJ

Sent a ticket for support since I still have not seen any indication that Slickdeals Rewards has recorded that I opened my account with SoFi as well as put in $500 into my SoFi account. They emailed me back saying along the lines of that they'll "take a look and see what the problem is" but I have not heard back. I have all the documentation that the Slickdeals Shopping Assistant Browser Extension was installed, I disabled my AdBlock just for this deal, and took screenshots showing that the extension was active when I finished creating my SoFi account and funded it as well. Yet no history on my Slickdeals Rewards page that it was actually recorded.

Beware, they will probably not give you the $75 reward and it's all a ruse to open new accounts for Slickdeals sponsor.
