For those of you who haven’t joined Ebates yet maybe this will make it a bit more enticing. Instead of cash back, you can now earn American Express Membership Rewards points on your Ebates purchases. Note, only new members to Ebates can earn Membership Rewards points, if you already have an account, you are locked into the cash back. However, if you would rather earn the points, like me, then open up another Ebates account with a different email.
To earn Amex points use this link and follow the prompts. When you join, you will receive 1,500 Membership Rewards points if you make qualifying purchases totaling $25 or more within 90 days of becoming a new member.
