It’s Free Money [1] Friday! What better way to end the week than to get some extra spending cash for the weekend?
Revolution Money Exchange [2] is offering $25 to new users to sign up. The $25 offer has been extended until May 15, 2008. Update: Readers are reporting that the $25 is still working in June!
What is it?
Revolution Money Exchange is similar to Paypal…. except there are no fees. (Although, Paypal clearly has them beat on the short name part!) You use the exchange to send money to other people via email.
To get your $25 out, be sure to link to a bank to do a transfer, otherwise there is a $2.50 fee to send a check. (Although, you would still have a $22.50 profit.)
Earn Referral Money
Once you sign up, you can refer friends and family to earn $10. So it’s $60 for a couple. For example, I signed up, then referred my husband. We both earned $25 and an additional $10. Although this one doesn’t work for kids: Persons under 18 years of age are not eligible.
Update: The $25 offer has ended, however, you can still refer your friends to get $10. In addition, there is now an Additional $15 Bonus From Revolution Money Exchange [3].
