Woohoo - got targeted for the $30/$50 offer! Pretty sure the BB loads via online debit card count as "signature transactions." That's an easy ~$2k right there (I've already hit the 1k limit for Sept - darn).
To be eligible to receive $30.00 USD back as a PayPal account credit, you must complete signature purchases using the PayPal Business Debit MasterCard totaling between $3,000.00 and $4,999.99, or complete signature purchases using the card totaling $5,000.00 or more to receive a $50.00 USD PayPal account credit ("Offer"). Offer begins 9/22/2014 and ends 11/15/2014. Offer limited to one PayPal account and valid for only one PayPal account credit.

I have been loading PPMC into account A and sending to account B (different SSN/address) and from there to bank. So far, I haven't had any issues, but a few posts upthread suggest that this is extremely risky. Is it safer to just load MC into account A and then w/d from account A via PPBDC through MO purchases? And repeat for account B? Or is this considered equally risky?
Feel free to PM if that's more appropriate.

My understanding is that loading BB/Serve with PPBDMC as linked debit card is not considered signature based transaction and will not accrue CB. You can link PPBDMC as a credit card to Serve (not BB) and loading it that way will get you 1% CB. Anyone got CB loading BB/Serve with PPBDMC as debit?

(c) and (d) are interesting. PayPal doesn't want you to use layaway, and they don't want eBay drop ship sellers.
