Last Chance Reminder: I posted this deal a few days ago and the response has been overwhelming.  This is currently the hottest deal in Canada, with over 329 pages on RedFlagDeals, Canada’s most popular deal site.  For those who are still on the fence, I’ve updated this post with some more info that will change your mind.  I’ve also included a FAQ at the bottom of the page to help clarify any and all questions you may have.

Sign up for ZenBanx besfore August 3, 2015 and get a $10 Sign-up bonus and exchange up to $250 CAD to $250 USD at Par plus a chance for $150+ BONUS.  The best part is that this isn’t the first time this promotion was offered, and suspect it wont’ be the last!  They’re hinting that there will be at least 1 more!  If you were one of the lucky ones that signed up before the first offer, you will have profited over $150 after going through with this one.  As an extra bonus, if you sign up through us, you will receive a $10 sign up bonus.  As an even better bonus, invite friends and family and get $10 for each referral, refer 5 or more and get $100 BONUS for a total bonus of $150 or more!

Promotion Details: Details can be found here: http://zenbanx.ca/par/

1) This is the second time ZenBanx is doing this – first was for Canada Day. This time around, will be on August 3rd, and it’s been hinted that there will be at least a third time.
2) You can transfer a maximum of $250 CAD for $250 USD on par.
3) You will only receive ~$190 USD immediately. Pending market rate.
4) Within a few days, ZenBanx will top off the difference, giving you now a total of $250 USD.

Post Promotion – It’s up to you how you want to spend your money! There’s a few options.

1. Keep it in your ZenBanx account in USD and earn a bit of interest rate.
2. Exchange your $250 USD back to CAD at ZenBanx’s market rate. This would be approximately $32X.XX CAD give or take.
3. Either keep it in your ZenBanx account or transfer it back to your linked external account – free of charge.
4. An ATM will be mailed out to you. Typically it takes 1-2 weeks.
5. You can use your ATM card in the United States. Details here on fees here:
   • Use it at specific US retailers listed here: as a debit card. No fee.
   • Withdraw USD at ATMS in the United States for a fee of $3.
   • At this time, you can only link your ZenBanx with CAD deposit accounts. So unfortunately you will not be able to transfer the whole $250 USD balance to your bank’s USD account.

Sign-Up Instructions:

1. Sign-up for a free Zenbanx account here.
2. Complete the application form including your SIN and a ID (Ie. drivers license or passport).
3. Add Linked Account (1 of 2 ways):
   A) Input your Bank Details (Institution #, Transit #, and Account #).
   B) Write a cheque to and from yourself for up to $250 and take a picture of it and upload it with the mobile app.
4. ZenBanx will make 2 micro-deposits into your bank account within 2-3 business days.
5. When you see the small amounts, enter them into your ZenBanx account to complete the verification process.
6. You can now transfer money to/from this Linked account.
7. Make sure you open your account prior to August 3, 2015, and put $250 in your account to exchange prior to August 17, 2015.  If you want to exchange less, that’s okay too.

To clarify, sign up through our link before August 3, 2015 and deposit $250 into your account.  On August 3-17, transfer $250 CAD to USD and you will receive the converted USD at their current exchange rate, and then also receive a promotional credit to get your balance up to $250 USD, effectively, getting the conversion at Par.  Refer friends and family and both will get $10 each, and if you can refer 5 or more people, get another $100 bonus for a total bonus of $150 or more!

Again, you must sign up through one of our links to be eligible for the bonus $10.  If you have any clarification questions, comment below and we’ll get back to you asap.
