Terrible website

Terrible website, they make you wait way longer than you should, and then will reject you even if you have satisfied all of the terms and conditions. Sketchy company will never use again.

Hello,

Sorry to hear that it took longer than expected to receive your GeniusCash.

We deliver GeniusCash to most customers within 30 days of their application date by automatically receiving confirmation from the bank that the application for the account has been approved and that it meets all the eligibility criteria for GeniusCash.

Sometimes we don't receive this confirmation from the bank automatically and manual investigation is required. There are various things that the bank needs to validate such as approval status, that you're a first time applicant for the account, that the application was started from our site, etc. Unfortunately, the manual investigation time does depend on the bank and it is outside of our control.

Just checked on our end, and according to Interac, the e-transfer for the Coast Capital Free Chequing Account GeniusCash offer was successfully sent on 2025-01-28 to the email address in your payment preferences.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review! Every bit of feedback helps us improve our processes to serve our customers better.

Hello,

I'm sorry to hear that it's taking longer than expected to receive your GeniusCash.

We deliver GeniusCash to most customers within 30 days of their application date, by automatically receiving confirmation from the bank that the application for the credit card has been approved, and that it meets all the eligibility criteria for GeniusCash.

According to our records, the GeniusCash for the offer you got approved for was sent to the email address you have set up in your payment preferences on 2025-01-29, but was not deposited due to Interac delivery failure. Please make sure you have the correct payment email address set up in the payment preferences in your Account Settings.

Just there to make money

They ranked Blue Cross as the best health insurance in an article i read. I assume it was just to get click money from this. I have Blue Cross and ( the reason i read article), I need to change because of (mainly) lack of coverage where most other insurers do cover.

Hello Peter,

Thanks for reaching out!

To clarify we do not have a business relationship with BlueCross. When evaluating health insurance providers, we analyze over 15 data points to generate a trustworthy Genius Rating. We consider all aspects of a health insurance policy, including the premium, overall coverage, extra perks, disability coverage, customer satisfaction, and customizable coverage, to assess its overall value. Then, the health insurance policy’s features are rated based on how they stack up against other available options.

If there is anything in the article you don't agree with, or specific coverages you were looking for that were not available under BlueCross, please send us an email at hello@moneygenius.ca and we would be happy to help answer any questions or point you in the direction of some insurance providers which might be better suited for you.

It looks like fraud to me

It looks like fraud to me. I applied the BMO credit card and approved in June 2024, but moneyGenius always shows 4 weeks to go, now moneyGenius shows the cashback is expired. Trust worthy to other people? Maybe. Fraud to me? Yes.

Hello,

We're sorry that it's taking longer than expected to receive your GeniusCash.

We deliver GeniusCash to most customers within 30 days of their application date by automatically receiving confirmation from the bank that the application for the Credit Card has been approved and that it meets all the eligibility criteria for GeniusCash. Sometimes we don't receive this confirmation from the bank automatically, and manual investigation is required. There are various things that the bank needs to validate such as approval status, that you're a first time cardholder for that card, that the application was started from our site, etc.

When we don't receive this approval confirmation from the bank once it's been 4 weeks since your application date, an automated email gets sent to the email address associated with your account with the link to your creditcardGenius or moneyGenius dashboard, where you can open a ticket so that we can send your info directly to the bank for a manual approval before the offer expires.

Please note that as per our Terms and Conditions, you must open a GeniusCash ticket within twelve (12) weeks of your application for the GeniusCash offer.

If you've already opened a ticket in your dashboard, could send us your email address via our Contact Form, or by emailing us at hello@moneyGenius.ca, and we'll be able to reach out to our team internally to investigate the status of the GeniusCash offer, and get back to you as soon as we have more information.

We apologize for this delay and thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Every bit of feedback helps us improve our processes to serve our customers better.
