every week sounds reasonable but doesn't solve the core of the problem. To 
be honest, the first promotion wasn't a success for us, we only got a few 
extra registrations because of it. But if the rebate turnaround time is not 
decreased much or the price adapted, so no rebate is necessary, it doesn't 
make sense to try it again. If it *was* a success then I'd have to pull the 
plug before we pile up too many registrations. AFAIK I cannot transfer back 
any money, so this also means we have to have much more funds in the 
account than usual, on top of the normal sum, just in case. So, for every 
sale of $1 I have to have $10 in the account. Let's say we put an extra 
$5.000 in the account and sell 500 domains. In the end we paid $500 and 
have $4.500 of dead money in the account.
