Cashback on XCOM in North America


Hey gamers,

We're rolling out an incredible new feature, currently for North America on XCOM: Enemy Unknown, which just rolls off the tongue...

CASHBACK

If you're in North America and haven't picked up XCOM, we're offering you the choice of either $5 cashback or $10 creditback (which will be put immediately into your account following your transaction)!

The following images should give you an idea of how it works on the site for users... 





Let us know what you think, and make sure to look out for this feature spreading across more games in all regions! So, how about that XCOM?

  1. Looking forward to this offer spreading. Hope it's not too ripe for abuse, though.

    I haven't bought XCOM, as I'm poorer than dirt, but this seems like a great incentive to buy it, and other games in the future too.

    Thank GMG!

  2. Actually, creditback offer sounds amazing. I hope it'll be implemented in other countries, too.

  3. If this does not affect the amount and quality of rebates, then this is a great feature! I buy all my new releases from GMG because of the 20-30% off rebates. But the way I see this, this is like transforming a rebate into GMG points(+small rebates like this 10%). So, in essence, you ensure that the cash you rebate to us ends up to you later. I expect that you did this as a way to get more cash and lose less to your 20-30% rebates.

    I might buy less games from GMG if I don't see them being discounted. The thing is that I shop around, so points specific to a certain distributor are of little interest. If I choose the cash option, that just means a smaller rebate.

    But hey, if you continue to give these big rebates and also do the points thing, then, nice...
