In the past, we have talked about the benefits of using Upromise to receive cash back on credit card and grocery purchases. Since then, Upromise has added a new feature that allows you to directly transfer your savings to your Sallie Mae Loan account to help start paying off your debt. In the midst of the vast number of accounts and reward point systems we sign up for, keeping track has become a bit of a hassle. However, by taking advantage of the Upromise - Sallie Mae partnership, you don’t have to keep track of your account money. Every time you take out a Sallie Mae loan they will prompt you to connect your Upromise account. This way the only time you have to worry is when you take out the loan. No need to count the pennies and keep track of what account does what. Although Upromise does not seem like it will add up to much money however, I do know someone who made over $500 in a year on their Upromise account. The key is to take advantage of family credit cards grocery cards and tell the coupon cutting grandma to check it out for sales.
