LumixFan was kind enough to post the steps of the process earlier in the thread -

Once my CU approved the external transfer account, I subsequently moved $40 from my CU checking account into netSpend.
The $40 took about two or three days to appear in my netSpend account. At the same time $20 appeared instantaneously from being referred by tys90. After alexyoung59 did his, the additional $20 came in and I now had $80 in my netspend account.
After reading the T&Cs, it seems like netSpend takes $1 per transaction. So I linked my netSpend debit card to my Serve account and moved $79 from netSpend to Serve. $1 was for the transaction charge taken by netSpend so balance on netSpend is now zero.
$79 in Serve, now moving back to CU checking account. Overall $39 profit for adding $40 into account, though it did took a while from start to finish, almost 3 weeks. I'm sure others could do faster depending on how fast the mail arrives for the debit card and choosing a faster route like PayPal to fund your initial $40.
When I went through the Conga, I mostly followed the steps LumixFan had posted.
Here is my update from earlier in the thread on my timeline of the process -

Pretty easy stuff.
So my Sign Up Bonus arrived instantaneously once my ACH funding cleared.
I actually received the Referral Bonus from someone using my link in the Conga before I received the Sign Up Bonus, but once the funding ACH cleared the Sign Up Bonus was instant.
YMMV or things may have change since I did it back in June of last year.
