This is the way the Marriott Card works (buy a GC from Marriott, get points on your credit card as if you paid a hotel bill).

I was thinking about buying a gift card using my Citi card to move some spend forward, but I saw another FT post where an FTer had his gift card purchase show up as a cash advance with all the pitfalls, no spend, and no points.

Anyone else have this turn out differently?
