SkyUser Cashback - For Sky Products

[NewsreadeR]

We are at the moment trying to implement a form of Cashback for our members, here on SkyUser.

Now, in an effort to support our members as well as our overheads, we would like to open up this thread for feedback on how we can proceed. We have two options.

1) We could open a white label website, whereby membership would be optional and once signed up you would be at the mercy of that particular companies Terms and Conditions, and we would get a return of the income as well as yourselves. This would be completely independent of SkyUser and all SkyUser would be is like an introducer to the deals.

2) We could develop our own software (preferred method) and then run our own Cashback Website, with our own staff etc. This would cost an awful lot to develop, but long term would benefit all of our membrers.

What we are proposing short term:

To develop and build our own solution, funding this from the Cashback that we would receive on a percentage basis with the member signing up or upgrading to Sky.

If you wish to sign up or upgrade to any of Sky's Services, check the relevant amount of Cashback that you would receive and then PM us after you have completed the sign up procedure online, with the date and rough time of the transaction. (You only be entitled for Cashback if you used a dedicated link, provided by us from our Cashback page) We will then confirm to you how much we will send to you in the form of Cashback. Sales are only validated once per month and so could not be confirmed until on or around 5th of the following month.

What we are proposing long term:

Once the Cashback Website has been built, we would then revert to the same sort of deals as other Cashback Websites. Whereby you would receive 100% of the commissions made in exchange for a small payment (not upfront, but deducted from your Cashback of approx £5) This would be an annual payment and would be deducted from your Cashback earned and would not have to be paid upfront.

For those of you who are already a Sky Customer, we could give you the following Cashback as from today if you wish to upgrade your account.

• Broadband Connect - £3
  
• Broadband Base - £3

• Normal Sky TV - £35.00
• Sky + - £40.00
• Sky HD - £50.00
• Broadband - £5.00 if you sign up to Sky Broadband as a new customer at the same time.

If you are interested,



We can only offer the Cashback if you follow the above steps and the Sale is tracked through the above process.

Let us know your thoughts, or if you have any questions fire away.

For new customers there would be a Cashback amount as well, but we would not be able to confirm the amount until the sale had been validated.

Just follow the same procedure above.

kinda like a reseller account with sky?

[NewsreadeR]

Nothing to do with Sky, its through a third party Agency. The fact it is for Sky is immaterial and I would of thought a bonus for anyone who wants to upgrade?

Edit: We will hopefully be adding more suppliers as well soon, as we get the Yes to do so.

I think this is a wonderful thing especially if it allows the admin team to keep this fantastic community going

im confused to what it actually means... sorry

Quick question is this like quidco????

[NewsreadeR]

Ricky - Yes exactly the same idea, however Quidco do thousands of signups a month, so until we achieve anything like that amount we couldn't increase the Cashback to our members.

Quantity counts on things like this. But we would offer money back for already Sky Customers rather than new customers.

If you sign up online using the link above and let us know roughly the time of doing so, we will pay you the relevant amounts published.

NR i am for this idea, as long as it does not detract from the main focus of the site i think it is excellent.
I am in no way suggesting it may, you guys got the radio station up and running and other stuff!
Good luck and any help just shout!
