$18 Moneymaker with Gamefly and MyPoints

The Offer

Direct Link

  • Signup for a new $10 Gamefly subscription using MyPoints and get 4,500 points

You can redeem 3,970 points for $25 in Paypal cash, and 480 points for a $3 Amazon gift card, making the reward worth around $28. The subscription cost is $10 leaving you with $18 profit.

The Fine Print

  • You must be a new GameFly customer
  • Points Awarded within 24 hours (reports are that this is showing up instantly)
  • This offer may only be redeemed ONE (1) time per user
  • When redeeming with Paypal, your PayPal account must be verified with the same email address as your MyPoints account and have the same first and last name

Our Verdict

There’ve been a few Gamefly signup opportunities in the past, I don’t think we’ve ever had a deal for more than $28 before. Unclear to me if the “new Gamefly customer” limitation means that you can’t currently be a member or that you’ve never been a member.

Remember to cancel before the second charge if you don’t want to keep the subscription.

MyPoints is similar to Swagbucks, in fact they are both owned by the same company. They sometimes run similar deals, I usually just post it as a Swagbucks deal to avoid confusion since Swagbucks is better-known and has a less-confusing points currency. This time, Swagbucks is showing the standard $20 bonus, meaning MyPoints is $8 higher now. [Update 10/25/17: Swagbucks is now at $25.]

My appreciation if you sign up for a MyPoints account with my MyPoints referral link. I don’t see any new member bonus with MyPoints currently; a reader tells us that when you use a referral link to sign up they’ll send you an email which offers $10 back if you spend $20 through their portal. Let us know if you can think of an easy way to meet that requirement.

Do I continue with the subscription for the 2 months even after cancellation? I don’t want to keep the subscription and then forget to cancel.

I just purchased the offer and got 4500 points credited to my account immediately. I had an existing MyPoints account in good standing prior to purchase. Perhaps new accounts are facing stricter oversight?

Theres a form you can fill out somewhere on their site to report missing points and bonus. There seem to be 2 separate forms…one for shopping and one for deals. Since this offer was under the deals tab, I filled out that form on monday. It said they typically respond in 24 hours but may take 3 to 5 days to investigate. It’s been 3 days so far and I’ve heard not a peep from them about my inquiry, and my points are still zero. If I don’t hear anything by tomorrow, I’ll followup again.

MyPoints support completely ignored my tickets so I emailed Gamefly. GF responded within a couple hours and refunded me.

Thanks for the DP. What did you say to GameFly to the get the refund? “I only wanted this as a moneymaker through Mypoints…”?

Briefly mentioned that I signed up through MP ad and didn’t get credited. Then asked for a refund since I didn’t use any GF benefits.

man, been over 24hrs. no pts… MP is some straight BS.

does anyone know how to file for missing pts? on their support page do I select: shop (missing pts) or deal (missing pts)?

perhaps too soon to ask, but anyone who didnt get their pts instantly – get this resolved already? if so, how? if not, what are you guys doing?
