yep, based on merchant's reported categories.

i'd use my amex spg card for spg. if you don't have one, i'd probably charge it to chase sapphire preferred.

my interest in this boa card, though, is its international usage. for something with no annual fee, it has no FTF AND (allegedly) has a metal chip. can any other cards beat that?
