this isn't new, they have been doing this since the start of the year.

We are screwed in Canada; and other countries are even more screwed than us. We probably only get 50% of American's tech over here, so we lose on a lot. I just guessing, but Americans definitely have a far better selection and bonuses than we do here. That is to be expected tho, ebay was founded in US after all, and US has more population than Canada which means more consumers spending, which translates to larger margin of sales to make room for slashing prices and offering better rewards.

This might be new, it didn't pay out before. The old eBay Bucks expired every 30 days.

Every 30days? Doesn't seem worth it lol

I think they have been doing the 90 day ebucks thing all year. I know I have already been through two 90-day cycles and waiting on the third. There's nothing to do once it's redeemable. Your next purchase on ebay has a credit applied to it. For instance if you buy an item for $15 and you have $5 in ebucks - you just have to pay $10. I buy all kinds of things on eBay - including a Honda Ridgeline (no ebucks for that), so this is like having a freebie for me.

When the Bing cashback was giving notice about ending, they said something about they were working on something new. So I hope they come back with another cashback program. I had gotten $697 cashback through Bing - and I did not even know about it until it had been in effect for a year or so.
