Quick Thoughts
This deal is good even if you have no desire whatsoever to actually use the LifeLock membership. It’s basically a way of buying Membership Rewards for 1.11cpp which means that most people will come out ahead when redeeming those points.
The cheapest annual subscription is $99.99. If your Rakuten account is set up to earn Membership Rewards, you’ll earn 9,000 of them. At the other end of the spectrum, it looks like the most expensive plan is $491.88. At 90x, that should earn 44,269.2 Membership Rewards points. Add on top of that whatever point earnings you have with your chosen credit card and the cost can be driven closer to a penny a point. There is some risk there as you’d be out a not-insignificant chunk of change if it didn’t track properly for some reason.
The terms of the Rakuten cashback state that you need to maintain the membership for at least 60 days. If you cancel after that, I don’t know if you receive a pro-rated refund. If you do, the deal becomes significantly more profitable.

95% now!
Getting a Norton error message when clicking from Rakuten (“We’re sorry. Something has gone wrong on our end.”).
Just me?
Apparently good all weekend because it’s 3x weekend. Also a moneymaker + food with Freshly ($60 or 6000 MR)
We need a 90x advantage miles back. Instant airline status!
Has anyone gotten a prorated refund after 60 days?
I have never had LifeLock, that I am aware of. The first year intro price shows up when I click through Rakuten, but then at checkout it goes to the full price. Chat is useless.
If you’re doing this to buy points, you wouldn’t want the discount. Full price is better.
I put my set point at the $476 number, so it was a hurdle I did not want to cross. Rakuten looks to have posted and the Amex offer triggered $20 back.
Any way to stack this with the United offer of 13,000 miles and 35% discount?
Dropped to 60% now.
My 1 yr subscription ended over a month ago for 2020 holiday season… Anyone successful in re-signing up?
Yes I just ended my 2nd subscription (first one was in excess of 100% and the second one 90%)
Did u wait a period of time between one subscription ending and signing back up?
Just looked it up. Between the first one ending and the second one starting was 4 month (not on purpose that was just how the offers appeared)
Thx
