Now THAT'S a good deal because there is no fee to purchase the cards (unlike visa and horrid Amex) so your ROI is pure 12% assuming you use these merchants. Plus gas rewards and for a few cards the grocery bonus. We spend $$$$ at Amazon every year so a no brainier.
Not really manufactured spend because you can't convert GCs to cash unless you sell them.
