Hello Adrian,

Sorry to hear that it took longer than expected to receive your GeniusCash.

We deliver GeniusCash to most customers within 30 days of their application date by automatically receiving confirmation from the bank that the application for the account has been approved and that it meets all the eligibility criteria for GeniusCash.

Sometimes we don't receive this confirmation from the bank automatically and manual investigation is required. There are various things that the bank needs to validate such as approval status, that you're a first time applicant for the account, that the application was started from our site, etc. Unfortunately, the manual investigation time does depend on the bank and it is outside of our control.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review! Every bit of feedback helps us improve our processes to serve our customers better.

Lays out the options I wouldn't have even considered.

I found it a great site to find an alternative option to my current big bank. Found a credit union that offered great benefits that weren't available on my currect chequing account. The welcome bonus and cashback was an additional great perk too.

Good amount of info and market…

Good amount of info and market knowledge. The cc eligibility sections could be tweaked to include consumer proporal people. The credit score indicated for eligibility differs at times from the competition or bank websites.

GeniusCash

I had applied for a product in Nov 2023 via their recommendation. The cash reward was paid in September 2024. Took a lot longer than expected.

That the money is real!

I couldn't believe it was real! One night I got an email about an e-transfer to my account and it was in there, wow! What a surprise!
