Halifax Cashback Card

I'm quite interested in getting the Halifax Cashback card that pays £5 every month you spend £300. However, i'm not sure if i'll regularly spend that much.

Just thinking outside the box :), I wondered i could pay money into a relative's account using the card to try and make the £300 per month target?

    If you are talking about the Clarity card, it is a credit card so you won't be able to pay into a relative's acount:- so you'll need to look at other options. (ie moving bills to your credit card to bump up spending)

    You also need to hold a Halifax Reward Account and pay in £1,000 pcm to qualify for a reward on the credit card (not difficult but worth noting)

    You'd be amazed how easy £300 racks up if you use it on food petrol etc, but you must remember not to spend the cash you would've done! And some bills might charge a % for credit card payment.
