What’s the catch? Are there hidden fees?

There’s no catch and zero fees — ever. Here’s how it works: When you shop through Upromise, retailers pay us for sending you their way. We share that money with you as cash back. When you play sponsored games or complete surveys, advertisers pay us to connect them with users — we pass those earnings to you. It’s the same model as Rakuten, Honey, and Swagbucks. You save money, retailers get customers, everyone wins. No credit card required, no hidden costs, completely free.

How much can I realistically save toward college?

You can earn $200 – $500 per year across a variety of daily activities without changing their spending habits. That’s $4,000 – $10,000 by the time your child heads to college. Your exact earnings depend on your activity level and whether you choose to open the Upromise World Mastercard. Though it’s completely optional, and you can earn rewards without it, the card allows you to maximize your savings — cardmembers earn on average up to 6X more Cash Back Rewards.

Plus, this year, you can win up to $20,000 toward college savings!

How do I get my rewards?

Cash Back Rewards are automatically transferred to your linked 529 College Savings plan account(s) once you meet an eligible balance. That’s it! There’s nothing further you need to do. Transfers happen automatically in the first week of each month at no cost. This allows you to make consistent college savings contributions every month. For complete details about managing rewards, please see Terms of Use and Member Agreement.
