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.
