New to Upromise

I have some question reguarding earning money. I live in a rural area and therefore do not have a Upromise participating retailer. Will i be able to earn rewards by shopping at my local walmart and purchasing the upromise specific products? i also have a EBT card, do i need to register that as well? what about babyfood i receive on WIC?? do you simply earn money by buying a upromise product and using your card at said locations weather its dining/refueling? somebody please clarify!

start with this link and see what is in your zip code for grocery stores, you may be surprised. If you don't  have anything close by then your only way of getting college funds is by your online purchases or gas purchases. If you have debit or credit cards you need to register them under your profile. Shopping at Wal-mart will not give you credit for the grocery items you were speaking about unless you have the Upromise credit card. It will give you 1% credit anywhere you shop and 10% on Upromise grocery items.

 

If you have any family member not saving for anyone else, you might want to see if they have grocery stores in their area. If so have them enroll and help you and your family.
