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,

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!

Don't bother .. I did this a while back and never got the $75.... I created an account, deposited $500 and waited.... Never got the money, I contacted Slickdeals, they told me they were going to see what happened and nothing still....
Waste of time and false advertisement!!!
Skip this one. Signed up and followed directions. SD has it showing up on my account and said they'd look into it. Been months. Same runaround as many others have gotten. Won't be doing anything else with them.
Thank you but your response was only a canned response... i did everything according to instruction yet i still didn't get it credited onto my rewards account... please help thank you
provided info / picture of my deposit... still nothing
I'd like to share my positive experience with this SoFi offer. I was worried if my account opening was not properly tracked because it showed 'ineligible' in the reward portal. I submitted my questions from the contact form found at the portal, and the Slickdeals team contacted me within a business day.
It looks like there are two separate orders to be tracked after you clicked through the Slickdeals promo link. The first one may be 'ineligible' because you simply created an account with SoFi but haven't satisfied the funding requirement. The second one will indicate 'eligible' as the funding requirement is met (=the funds settle, arrive in SoFi). It may take a couple of days for ACH to transfer money from an external account to SoFi.
I received my bonus from both the invest and the money account. Thanks Slickdeals for the $150!
the secret was using a brand new chrome browser with no extension installed and screenshotting and taking a screen recording of the application process
PS: is there any way to do a one time direct deposit?
I.e. send $1k plus some fee to a company who will deposit it coded as a direct deposit ? I'm self employed so I'm trying to figure out how to get this bonus too.
"Qualifying Direct Deposits must be made from the enrolled member's employer, payroll, or benefits provider via ACH deposit."

Hi there,
I just looked into your support ticket and it appears we are still awaiting your response. Please provide the information requested in our last email so we can get this resolved for you.
We don't want you to respond to our support tickets we want you to fix the issue - you keep responding to me but you just say it's being worked on. You've had long enough
Hello there,
We understand this has taken longer than we anticipated. We apologize for any frustration caused, but we can assure you that you'll be receiving your earned points when we receive a resolution from SoFi.

ok i just send out the screenshot via email AGAIN.
Its been 5 weeks since signup with the SD browser extension. I already got the $100 Sofi bonus for two DD's but no reward transaction showing up on SD's end. Just sent 2nd request to SD to fix. The browser extension on my end is working as ther is a SD popup when I visit shopping sites. I have yet to even see the reward for installing the Slickdeals Shopping Assistant Browser Extension.
Wanted to post that I signed up and funded my account yesterday, my 7500 points are now pending. Followed the instructions to the T. There was a moment of concern when Sofi had issues with linking my bank account, but it all worked out.
I opened a new SoFi Money account on 9/16, but my points never showed as pending even though I followed the instructions exactly. I've contacted Slickdeals, and they keep saying they're looking into it but nothing has happened. I'm very disappointed that they are not fulfilling their obligation, and this will make me very hesitant to do any more Slickdeals cashback offers in the future
Skip this one. Signed up and followed directions. SD has it showing up on my account and said they'd look into it. Been months. Same runaround as many others have gotten. Won't be doing anything else with them.
Hello there,
Thanks so much for using Slickdeals! We apologize for the delay you have experienced. We are addressing these issues and handling them directly with SoFi.
We will surely notify you of any changes in your support ticket.

Yes looking for the same answer. I have heard about astra and was considering signing up for a trial of QuickBooks payroll and cancelling in 30 days.
