Bing sent notice to at least some merchants (probably all) today indicating that they will be matching all cashback discounts starting August 10. It doesn't specifically say that it ends Aug 31, but it says "during August" so I assume that means it ends on or before the 31st. They will also begin a broad marketing campaign designed to
increase traffic to and awareness of Bing Shopping and the cashback program.
If you aren't live on Bing yet, now is a good time to get started.

Great blog Scot, I follow this one more than the other two!
So, we've been trying to integrate the tracking pixel for our PWS for a month. Everything else is ready to go, which the support team hasn't figured out.
Our Microsoft Bing rep is more than happy to help them out, but nobody over at PWS support has contacted him.
It's been probably a month now, we keep emailing but have barely heard anything back from support. Hopefully they will get this figured out before the big back-to-school double cash back promotion.
Email me if you would like more info!
