AP Interest Bearing Account

This is pretty sick news if true. I may actually start playing there again if that is the case. Even if it was 5 percent i would be happy.

can anyone confirm this to be true?

This could be the next big thing after Dot Com and the Real Estate bubbles.

Just kidding, sounds pretty awesome.

[MicroBob]

this could definitely be awesome.
but if they have regulations about leaving the money in there or needing to maintain a certain balance or limiting number of withdraws then that would suck and could also be kind of weird when trying to take advantage of reloads-bonuses.

I can only confirm that the newsletter did indeed say this.

I talked to AP support and they say it's true. A manager is emailing me info on it supposedly within 5 minutes but it's been 10 minutes.

just hope the interest payments aren't in bonus dollars

Am I the only person who sees this as bad somehow? It almost seems like they're so desperate for money, they'll offer something they might not be good for.

[CompatiblePoker]

I don't see it as that. No reason AB or UB should be low on money. Just a marketing tactic to bring in VIP members (possibly from other sites) and generate more rake imo.

Wow, that is awesome.

Well, I look at it this way: they're in some way lowering the price of their service by giving it back to us in interest. They make interest on the balances too, of course. It's a very new and unique incentive for players to flock to the site.. and it's not like anyone can just throw his money in there and use it as his personal bank- he has to earn 10k pts/mo to maintain elite status. The end result for them? More people playing to 10k points which is a decent amount of rake.

man I really hope this isn't a joke.
