Saving Money for College with Upromise

How can I save money for college with Upromise?

You shop online through Upromise at one of the thousands of participating stores, eat at a participating restaurant or shop at a registered grocery or drugstore that have discount cards. Each time you do this after signing up, you get percentage of your purchase deposited into your Upromise account. It's really that easy. Go to their site to see all their partner companies involved.

You can even invite family and friends to participate. When anyone links their credit or debit card or their drug or grocery store card to the Upromise account, all eligible earnings will be deposited into your Upromise account.

Earnings you accumulate in your Upromise account stay there until you decide to use it to invest in a 529 plan, help pay down eligible student loans or assist with college expenses—all tax-free!

What could be easier?
