Cash in with NETELLER Showcase bonuses

The other day, Chris was asking me about the NETELLER Showcase site. He had recently upgraded to Extended status and wanted to make sure he was getting the most out of his account. As a NETELLER employee, he’d heard about the Showcase site, but was still kind of hazy on the details.

I told him it was simple: NETELLER Showcase provides our members in over 140 countries with offers and bonuses from their favourite sites. We have built long-term relationships with some of the top global merchants so we can pass exclusive benefits on to NETELLER members. I gave him an idea of how he might cash in on our connections:

The perks

  • Enjoy one-stop shopping for exclusive offers for NETELLER members*
  • Receive real-time notification of Showcase offers through our Twitter feed
  • Check out new offers posted weekly
  • Exclusive offers for retail, forex trading, bingo, poker and casinos
  • Visit the dedicated tournaments page for all NETELLER sponsored freerolls

Because Showcase is constantly being updated with exclusive offers just for NETELLER depositors, I told Chris that he should check it out often. And because I know he’s forgetful, I reminded him that the site’s always easy to find, with links to it in the QuickLinks section of his account and on our blog.

What’s your favourite Showcase perk?

*Offers vary by country.

NETELLER: a year in review

We’re so busy around the NETELLER office that we don’t always take time to reflect on all of our accomplishments. That’s why I’m going to take a moment to go through my personal highlights for 2009. Before I get to that, I just want to say how much I love working with such a dedicated group of people. The pride these guys take in helping all of you get the most from your NETELLER membership is truly inspiring.

I promised you highlights, so here they are:

New services, countries and deposit options

We launched our Money Transfer service to help you send money easily and securely to family and friends wherever they may be. We also tweaked our NETPoints program to give you more opportunities to win seats at great tournaments, earn NETPoints on Net+ transactions and secure online money transfers, as well as give VIPs a chance to earn free deposits. But that wasn’t the only perk we gave our VIPs in 2009 – we rolled out tons of great VIP benefits. And because you asked for it, we also lifted IP blocking for all our members so you can access your account from almost anywhere in the world!

Net+ Chip & PIN and virtual prepaid cards gave you more

Our award-winning Net+ cards gave you the ability to control your spending and the freedom to securely shop online without the worry of your card number being stolen thanks to its one-time generated card numbers — and at 750 EUR, the Chip & PIN cards give you some of the highest ATM withdrawal limits in the biz. And finally, the Net+ ninja has you protected wherever and whenever you use your Net+ cards.

Special offers

2009 was all about cash giveaways and promotions, and the response from you guys was overwhelming. We awarded 6000 EUR to some fantastic players in our Luck or Skill promotion, sent out great offers from top gaming merchants like PKR, Purple Lounge and Full Tilt, and opened up our Showcase to members worldwide so that wherever you live, you can keep up with the latest promos from your favourite sites!

Online community

We know that you guys live your lives online and with an expanded presence on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and the NETELLER blog, we’re meeting you on your turf. For those of you who wanted to come onto our turf, we gave you a chance to literally become the next face of NETELLER with the Be a hero contest.

And it was great to get to know a lot of you rally race car fans thanks to our sponsorship of rally racer Robert Fagg. His blogs really took us into the mind of a rally car co-driver and some of the videos are priceless, like when he hit a tree.

We heard you

It’s easy to forget that the internet is all about making connections. We really pushed ourselves to connect with more of you in 2009. Poker in the Park and Betsson Estoril LIVE gave us a chance to meet many of you face-to-face. One of the best ways to stay connected is through the newsletter that we launched in September to provide you with all you need to know about NETELLER as we move forward.

I am pumped for 2010! Keep an eye out for more tournaments, more giveaways and a lot of great ways to use your NETPoints and so much more!

Holiday shopping with Net+ prepaid cards from NETELLER

With the holiday season fast-approaching, you’ll probably visit your favourite mall or online merchant to find that oh-so perfect gift.  While your search may be fun and successful, it may also come with the stress of finding the perfect hiding spot. That special someone may be a little too curious for their own good. They will stop at nothing to find out what’s in store for them.

Net+ prepaid cards will keep them guessing

The best way to keep your holiday spending under wraps is with a Net+ physical or virtual prepaid card.

Your card transactions are kept private through online statements so there’s no paper trail (for nosey parkers going through credit card statements). Finally, rest easy that your surprise stays that way until the big day!

Reward yourself

Why not give yourself a gift this holiday season? Each time you use your Net+ card you earn NETPoints that you can put towards great rewards!  Plus, just for using your Net+ card in November you’ll earn ballots for the Luck or Skill Giveaway, for a chance to win big money in the weekly prize draws.

When are you starting your holiday shopping?

New NETPoints mean more NETELLER rewards

Today’s post was written by Leanne. She is a Marketing Manager and works mainly on the VIP program. She’s also in charge of the office fish tank.

For as long as I can remember we’ve had the NETPoints program for the NETELLER eWallet. It’s been around for so long that sometimes it’s easy to forget we’re the only eWallet company that offers this type of program.

What’s a NETPoint?

Members earn NETPoints every time they send money to friends, family or their favourite sites. They can use their points to enter draws to win big cash prizes – $4,500 USD worth per month! It’s no wonder many of our members take advantage of the weekly, bi-weekly and monthly giveaways. But not everyone knows it exists! Well, that’s ending now.

We asked members how we could kick the NETPoints program up a notch and got some great feedback. Now we’ve bulked it up with some fantastic benefits and are ready to send it to the masses!

The goods

  • Earn points every time you send money online to your favourite site, to your friends using Money Transfer or when you use your Net+ card
  • Use your points to enter weekly, bi-weekly and monthly draws (up to $4500 awarded monthly!) or use your points to enter tournaments
  • VIPs can use their points for up to 10 free deposits a month!

And there will be more amazing benefits coming soon. Follow us on Twitter for even more chances to win NETPoints and to find out if you are the latest cash giveaway winner.

I can’t wait to see what you think about the revamped NETPoints program. You know where the comments go.

NETELLER gives more than a great online money transfer service

Today’s post was written by Leanne. She is a Marketing Manager and works mainly on the VIP program. She’s also running lots of other programs and promotions lately like NETPoints.

It’s great to be a NETELLER member. Especially because we have NETPoints.

For every 1 USD you transfer to your favorite sites, you’re awarded 10 NETPoints—so easy! And you can use those NETPoints towards weekly, biweekly and monthly draws. Check it out.

It’s too bad employees can’t win. You better believe I’d be entering absolutely every contest. Although, I’m pretty sure that would look bad. VIP Marketing Manager wins…again. Lucky for you I can’t play.

Have any ideas for what you want to do with your NETPoints? Let us know in the comments.
