UPDATE: The give-away is now closed.
Plastiq is a bill payment service that makes it possible to pay almost any bill with a credit card. Plastiq’s standard fee is 2.5% of the amount paid, but it’s possible to reduce that fee through referrals.
Plastiq’s referral program works like this: For every friend who registers with Plastiq via your referral link or code, you get 1,000 Fee Free Dollars (FFDs) and they get 500 FFDs after they make payments totaling $500 or more. It’s important to understand that last part: Neither of you will get FFDs until your friend has made $500 or more of total bill payments. On those first bill payments they will be charged Plastiq’s standard fees. 1,000 FFDs can be used to avoid $25 in Plastiq fees (based on Plastiq’s standard 2.5% fee).
Thanks to many readers having used my referral link to sign up for Plastiq (plastiq.com/frequentmiler), I have a large stash of Fee Free Dollars. So, I reached out to Plastiq to see if I could give away some of these FFDs. The answer? Yes!
How to use Plastiq
Full details about Plastiq can be found here: Complete guide to Plastiq credit card payments. The main thing you need to know, though, is that you can’t use it to pay friends; and that there are different rules for different types of credit cards:
* In rare cases with lesser known banks, mortgage payments have been known to process despite this rule.
** You can avoid cash advance warnings by making an initial payment to this recipient with a different type of credit card. Future Visa payments will then be OK. For more details see: How to dodge Plastiq cash advance fees.
*** Amex payments are limited to the following industries:
- For Recipients in the United States, the use of American Express cards is permitted for the following industries: Government, Utilities, Education, Residential Rent and Club Fees and Memberships.
- For Recipients in Canada, the use of American Express cards is permitted for the following industries: Government, Utilities, School, School K-12 and Residential Rent.
Amex is the most restrictive, but if you have bills that qualify, Plastiq is a great option since Amex is cool with these payments (see: The Amex war on gaming heats up).
