On the phone it's much faster to register 866 515 4134 then press 1 then enter your card number then press # right after entering your number   to skip the T&C then press 1 to accept and your finish it took me about 20 seconds the whole thing.

anyone know any good ways to set my cards up with a business so they charge them all on Saturday ?
I will out of town and want to take care of this before I leave

1.  Call them
2.  Look in local magazines.  I have already seen a few ads in Lakewood.
Any updates on this? I'll IYH be out of town and really would love if there is a location I can call in to run the cards...

I am confused, what are we all registering for? in the past we did not have to register our credit cards for SBS, has that changed? or is this for ppl going out of town to get stores to run their cards through?

Registered 70 cards! Prob took around 20 min, although I spread it out over an hour. I just started a conveyer belt of registration pages. I opened 25 pages at a time, and just used keyboard shortcuts to put all the info in each field as follows: copyied my first name, CTRL + V (paste), SHIFT + TAB, CTRL + V, SHIFT + TAB, etc. Did the same for each field (except the 3rd cc number field), after the 2nd email address, I hit TAB, Enter. worked like a charm.

That was spread out over the year, but you're right about that.

Time invested (including dealing with the stores):
4 hours?
Return on those 4 hours: $700
= $175 per hour. That's still more than I make per hour at my full time job, so it's still worth it for me. :)

I live in UK so cant participate in the SBS promotion - my mum lives in NY - and she has 7 AMEX cards all registered, very legitimate to get $70 credit.

I am curios as to why a small retailer would want someone to come in with say 70 cards - all with different names on them (AU) and let anyone buy 70 x $10 purchases?

I also trust that the AU  everyone are adding are real people - I can only comment about UK, but would think laws are similar in USA - using fake names to obtain a monetary gain is fraud ! Even though you are paying for the goods you purchased (so therefore not stealing) - if using false names (or under aged children's names) for the purpose of obtaining the $10 credit - in UK (and I would have thought in USA) - this is fraud.

Please be careful.

They would want them to get the business, though they probably should check ID's if they want to cover themselves.
