I received this mail from Backupsy today:

Pretty awesome for a service which already has made quite a good name for itself in the storage sector. I added $50 and received another $50.

Is there a $50 minimum? My credit card is almost maxed out for this cycle
Minimum is $25
Nice one! Just added $50 myself.
What's up with providers giving away free stuff these days?!
Great! added $30
Is this applicable to new customers? I've been thinking of getting a plan with Backupsy but haven't actually done so yet so this would be a big incentive.
I believe once you pay for a monthly subscription, you can add funds to your account and avail of the offer. @serverian?
@hellogoodbye is valid for all customers
go get it with backupsy, excellent provider.
looks like its time to get a backupsy, anyone got a good tutorial that works for auto backups to backupsy from another vps on ubuntu?
Only double in Backupsy? The other brands no?
I just want to create and add fund for future use (next month), but i cant fund without an active order.
Add a cron job for rsync using key based authentication?
I
rsnapshot for my backups:

thanks that looks exactly like what I needed, not too familiar with ubuntu yet thanks for the tutorial.
I picture @serverian sitting back watching everyone throwing their money at vultr.com for the double-up and thinking 'hell I should be doing that' with the business he has the longest term plans for (naturally, his backup business).
Up next "Serverian Bank"

@Noerman FIFY
Is it automated ?
how long will this promotion last?
It is.
Oktay's lIfe is automated. I bet his clothes wash themselves.
Just signed up for a plan about an hour ago and added funds-- minimum deposit is set at $50.00 for me, not sure if they've upped the minimum amount for everyone or if it's just for new clients. Either way, I coughed up the money since it's still a great deal.
Awesome, added $50 now got $100
Is there a cap to the maximum amount you can get or there is no upper limit?
From what I see on the Add Funds page:
Minimum Deposit $50.00 USD
Maximum Deposit $2000.00 USD
Maximum Balance $5000.00 USD
$120 added, $240 in credit
Paid for 5 servers the next 6 months.
$100 in credit at Vultr.com, €160 in credit at iwStack and $220 in credit at DigitalOcean. Maybe I need to stop paying for some time now.
no, please continue paying more, you can do it in my account
Of course
Donate now to the Dedicados Fund!!
