My offer mentioned that if I used my CC VISA, besides that 5X per $ on regular spend, I would get an additonal 5X, so total 10X for this $280 transaction, effectively bringing it to 0.45 cpp.

It can be profitable if used in conjunction with the free night redemption in a high end hotel.

But I can manufacture points at the blue alchemist for 0.16 cpp, so will pass.
