Its easy to get your free ipod or ipod mini now! all you have to do is sign up using my link, then sign up for one of the offers.
USA ONLY
I personally signed up for the Infone offer, because ou get a free $10 amazon card, and you dont have to cancel because as long as you dont use their service more then 5 times, they wont bill you. Many others go for the Free AOL for 50 days, or the Netscape. Those, you just sign up for, then wait 2 weeks, then cancel. There are many other offers such as the columbia DVD or BMG Music. After you sign up, all you have to do is get 5 other friends to sign up as well (really easy)

I'm nice enough to give you a free gmail account for signing up with this link.
After you have signed up and completed one of the offers, email me at [email protected] with your email address you signed up with, and i will send you the gmail account, as will i add you to this list so more people can get to yours to sign up.
This is real people, here is a wired article about it

anyone?
Just do it with a mail account you will dump, since this is a collection service for spammers.
Also keep track of everything closely and keep lots of records. These guys have generated a lot of fraud complaints because they try to back out of actually sending out anything.
Just get lost!
I received my Nexus 7.
Logged in with my Google account. Set up wallet. Nothing.
Checked online and cannot find a step that I missed. I thought that when I sign in with my Google username and password, and my Google Wallet account, it would appear in the drop down as a payment type for play store purchases. All I have is my main credit card listed in the play store. I did get the $10 credit from Wallet, but not the $25 from the pre-order.
Any ideas?

I believe the $25 credit is for the Play Store and won't show up in your wallet.
When you make a purchase in the Play Store it should show you how much credit you have left.
I haven't tried this yet, but I believe this is how it works from the other posts I've read.

Also, you must you the account you used to set up your Nexus.

Yeah, I simulated purchasing an app and the drop down only had my credit card, not the card and play credit like I have seen in screen shots.
I guess I will call Google.
When I ordered my N7 I clicked the little box that said "link my account" and then when I went to the play store I got an email saying I was credited. Have you tried rebooting and/or resetting?
Sent from my Nexus 7
yeah, i got that email too.
Ordered: Wednesday
Delivered: Today (Friday)
I also received my email (@gmail) today with the $25 credit info. I think it came shortly after I signed into the device using my gmail account.
Transformers was pre-loaded on the device in my Play store / Movies, but you can manually "download" it too which I'm doing and it takes about 1.5 hours FYI...
I got an email saying my play store credit was ready for use!

I just got my N7 and signed in, before the setup was finished I got an email on my phone saying my $25 credit was available and how to select it for purchases.
Can I buy a six pack?????
Just wanted to update for future use. I performed a factory reset and when I reentered my Google information I immediately received my play credit.
Thanks all for the suggestions.

I had to re enter the credit card that was already associated with the account and then it was there. A little strange but simple enough.
Once I set up my Google Account, it told me that I 'qualify for the $25 Credit for the Play Store', but I needed to set up a credit card first. After adding the one that I already had in there, it said 'The credit card you set up doesn't qualify for the credit.' I guess it's because it's an Austrian credit card.
Bottom line: all you should have to do is link it to your account and add a credit card.

How come some people are getting 10 dollars from google wallet as well as the 25 from the play store?
I have 2 nexus 7's on the way, will I be able to get 2x $25 credit on one google account with both of the devices?
Never received my $25 credit so I called Google. They had me do a factory reset only and as soon as I logged in I received the $25 credit. I did not have to add a new credit card or delete the existing one (only a factory reset and it worked).
Has anyone else run in to this problem?
My sister was setting hers up and she didn't know her password. She skipped signing in during the setup and reset her password (after setup). Then I did a factory reset and she did the initial setup again, this time signing in with her Google account.
We never saw the screen mentioning the free $25, nor did she receive an email about it.

Yes I have the same issue. No credit and no email. I already had a credit card in Wallet so I've deleted it and reentered it, but still no credit. Trying to avoid doing a reset and I've emailed Google but I won't hold my breath.
Same here, No 25$, already tried every method possible. Waiting for replay from Google.

All you need to do is go to the play store chose a app you wanna buy, then it will ask you from which credit card you wanna pay with than from the drop down menu you can choose the 25$ credit!

This is not working.
[Q]»The 25$ free credit will be linked to my credit card or my gmail? I mean if I buy the tablet for my friend using my friend's gmail account but using my credit card, then deleted my credit card info from his play store account , will he become able to benefit from the free 25$ credit without needing my credit card info??
It is associated with your google play/Wallet account which uses your gmail account. when you first log into the device the credit is placed in that account.
It is not associated with who purchased the device.

Thnx for reply but will he be able use them regardless to the buyer credit card info present or deleted?
Is there a way to check your balance? I got a email saying i got the $25 even though i didnt preorder. Want to be able to keep track of it since i dont expect to spend it all at once.
Unless you log into his new device, it would use HIS account. When you setup the device, one of the first things you do is associate the device to an exciting or newly created account.

The credit is to get you used to buying stuff. It is not just for pre-order orders.
Note the kindle fire had a similar credit.

NVM figured it out. You need to log into google wallet (non app) and check balance under payment method. There it shows your google play credit.
I like this a lot more then PayPal (they screwed me out of over $2200 and I'm done with the BS customer service.) You have to side load it and use the "call" feature to activate it. If you sign up for Clover Gold, you get a $5 credit and you can turn that into an Amazon gift card, it's win win...if you just want $5 and want to close the account you can also do that, but I recommend using this for sending/receiving money or even Serve from American Express, I've been using this for almost a year. I like it, just happen to get a few more invites to share with you guys to check it out.
Again, you don't have to keep the account, you can close it after you get your $5 if you'd like. It requires you to enter you bank account to transfer funds etc. It's a legit company from ex yahoo employees and few other big name players.
If you guys want to try it, here is my link to get in:
MOD EDIT: Removed
Let me know how it works for you guys or if you have any issues, I have a few invites left.
Sorry, we don;t allow this service to be promoted on xda using referral codes.
I bought my Nexus 7 last year when I lived in the US. I also redeemed the $25 promotional Google Play Balance and I used it but for $0.87.
Now I'm stuck in a very strange situation. The balance should have expired on September 30th 2013, but I still can see it on my Google Wallet.
Unfortunately that's quite an issue for be because in the meanwhile I relocated to Italy and last week I opened a Google Play Developer account.
I'd like to make my account a merchant account but I can't since until I have Google Play Balance I cannot "move" the account from my old american address to my new italian address.
Did Google already remove your expired Google Play Balance?
This actually sounds like something customer support can fix for you. Give them a call.

After I started this thread I contacted Google but they cannot help me.
They said they are going to introduce the possibility to move accounts but until they do I'm out of luck

Google has been helpful support wise in the past for me. Just ask them to remove your balance. Trying a new rep a few times might help, sometimes there is someone go goes above and beyond what they are asked for.
I still have like a $0.03 balance and I bought on launch day.
