Live search cash back program

Logically, it all starts by visiting the Cashback URL and typing in your search query at the top. Here is a screen capture of me doing just that:. Up came many results, all looking to come from the same vendor, all around sport team branded umbrellas. I figured, what the heck, it will keep the rain off me and I can look like I care about a particular team.

Maybe someone will come over to me and make a comment about the team and brighten up my rainy day? So I go with Ohio State, just because that is what I clicked on first.

Search on Bing, and look for search results with Bing Rebates shopping tags. Once you complete your purchase the rebate will be credited to your Rewards account. After a brief waiting period, you can transfer rebates to your PayPal. And I could say that back then, I was not alone in feeling that way about the cashback program. A couple of months later, Microsoft reported that despite not gaining significant traction, the cashback program is still getting good amount of usage as well as traffic to its Live Search portal brought about by the program.

Six months after, here comes Microsoft reporting that aside from search queries that the cashback generates which is so far successful as far as Microsoft is concerned, two other key measurements of the Live Search Program have proven favorable as well — number of offers and ROI for advertisers.

After 6 weeks, Live Search sent me an e-mail saying that HP informed them that my purchased was returned and hence cancelled my Cashback, however the PC was still sitting in my house. I did not return or exchange anything with PC. Maybe they might expand in the future. Why else go after a giant like Google? Thanks for the great advice which will save many of us a lot of time.
