Yes, but the formula probably isn’t the same between all given banks and their respective bank card affinity partners.

I wouldn’t rule out that the inside knowledge of some other company’s/companies’ formula arrangements in this market may be what is part of the driver behind UA’s complaining about Chase UR cards.

Chase’s UR is costing UA a substantial enough chunk of its UA card business that UA management wants a change.
