Notes
$4k$100 in credit card funding between checking and savings- The system is very slow
Thoughts
I applied and went pending. I did it for the $50 (didn’t see the $150 offer at the time). Tickets are a nice touch if you’re local. Doubt reselling would be worth it. There’s also a chance you get a 1099 for the face value of the tickets.

Just got off the phone with a rep who was trying to open my new accounts and was told the CC funding limit was reduced from $2k/account to only $100 as of 11/15. Also, the name on the funding card must be the name in which you open the account – I was not able to use my wife’s CC to fund my account w/o proof of joint ownership.
Bummer… I’ll make the update. Thanks
When I signed up for Unify I cc funded both the checking and savings accounts $2k each. I’ve had the account for more than a month now and all is going well. I’ve already started getting my $50 per month using Fidelity Cash Management ACH Push. Yesterday, I had the idea of trying to open a Money Market account they offer there in hopes of CC funding another $2k. Found out during the second step of the application process they only allow $100 in cc funding, so I aborted the sign up app for it.
I just read another comment in this thread, and according to Ryan as of 11/15/2023 the $2k in funding has been reduced down to $100. So had I tried this the day before, I might of gotten an offer to cc fund the money market account with $2k perhaps — oh well. 🙂
Looks like all $150 posted for me within a week of account opening and only one 500 push from Amex wondering how long to leave everything or if I need to do a second push for “safety”
There’s no lockup period. I am keeping it open because they have a referral offer from time to time.
Will give this one a shot after 10/1 so I can grab an Ink card 1st for tbe funding.
