Family position offering cash with it, keeping you and me (10)

I believe the answer is:

cousinship

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'family position' is the definition.
(position or state of being a cousin)

'offering cash with it keeping you and me' is the wordplay.
'offering cash' becomes 'coins' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'with it' becomes 'hip' (I've seen this in another clue).
'keeping' indicates putting letters inside.
'you and me' becomes 'us'.
'coins'+'hip'='coinship'
'coinship' placed around 'us' is 'COUSINSHIP'.
