A market innovator since 2004, AccountNow is the
financial services company for the estimated 40 million US consumers who have been turned away by banks. The company offers
customers prepaid accounts, similar to a checking account. Customer can use a range of products and services including prepaid
MasterCards, direct deposit, online bill pay, online account access, FDIC-insured deposits, and money share. AccountNow introduced
the industry's first credit building feature based on linking a customer's bill pay history to a national credit reporting
agency, Payment Reporting Bilds Credit® (PRBC).
AccountNOW and 6DGR
The debit card does not cost you anything to sign up for, unless you fail to read the instructions that
we ask all members to read before signing up for the account. The instructions can be found both on the 6dgr Account page,
next to the picture of the debit card, or to save everyone some time, they can also be obtained here: http://www.6dgr.com/AccountNowHelp_Final.pdf
- if the link does not work, please copy and paste in browser address bar.
Signing up for a debit card is not mandatory.
As long as you continue to abide by the terms and conditions of the site, then we are happy that you choose to use 6dgr.com!
We are a social networking site that rewards its loyal and active members by offering them something that most people either
want or need: money! We do not want any member to feel that they must accept the rewards we offer. Please understand though,
that members who do wish to receive the rewards need to provide us with a way to deliver them - in this case, that means choosing
to open an account with a 6dgr approved payment partner.
- There will be additional payment partners for our members
to choose from in the near future, and members should feel welcome to wait for those partners to be made available.
-
There are several upsides to the Debit Card that appear to have been missed. The Debit Card is significantly easier to obtain
than a checking account from a large bank - those members who were unable to acquire WaMu accounts due to credit problems
will find that this partner will not only accept them (most likely), but also give them opportunities to responsibly rebuild
or just plain build their credit history!
- The debit card does not cost people $5 per month, as long as they continue
to add 5 active people to their direct network each month. If they are unable to do that in one month, then we will pay the
$5 for one month (this is not every month they miss the target - we do this one time over the life of an account).
-
In the event that a member does not meet the five active sign-up target for two months, then the $5 per month fee becomes
their responsibility. Their account does not get closed, they do not lose access to their earnings, they do not stop earning
money on 6dgr.com, and they do not lose access to 6dgr.com.
- Existing members who had active WaMu accounts that were
already linked to 6dgr do not have to take the new debit card - they will not be penalized in any way for such a decision,
but they cannot earn residual income on their network's debit cards unless they encourage their network to sign up for debit
cards!
You can sign up on the 6dgr website (during setup, after creating a profile), or sign up here directly. (Note: In order to receive your earnings from 6dgr directly deposited into your accountNOW account, you must
complete the PayMeNow step, during setup on 6dgr. This tells 6dgr where to deposit the earnings)
