We reported a few weeks ago on some gift cards being fee-free on Evolve. Today, Evolve sent out emails stating that they’re killing the deal. Okay, they didn’t actually say that, here’s the email:
I killed the deal.
In that post I theorized that the reason that US Bank gift cards were still fee-free was because the fees to process them were low. I couldn’t imagine it was just a glitch since Evolve was just coming off glitches and they just re-coded the system for all cards to show the 3% fee properly. Others disagreed with me in the comments and were sure it was a glitch.
I was wrong.
We wrote more on this topic of killing deals a few days ago, see Open Discussion: How Should We Handle MS Topics? The discussion is still ongoing, so please head over there and let us know what you think about the topic.
Since then we’ve decided to keep all sensitive information related to manufactured spend off the main site. For now, we’re sending it out in the subscriber’s newsletter. We’ve already sent one such subscriber’s-only post, and we have a few more coming soon.
