I set a calendar item for myself to ensure I cancel UberOne before 11/12/2024 (at least 2 days prior Uber recommends to the deadline).

I agree that AmEx agreement fine print must have put exclusivity in the T&E space with Uber (makes sense) hence no Venture variants allowed. Savor is really just E space, and QuickSilver is just a popular card (when it first came out). The strange part of this is the availability of no AF cards for this promo (SavorOne, QS Student, SavorOne Student). I wouldn't suggest anyone do this on QS because that is just six consecutive months, you should get a SavorOne instead.

I would presume most of the Swifties are getting the SavorOne card because that likely matches well into their spending pattern. I can see Capital One trying to have a really big new accounts quarter.

Hmm, but I still think Uber is not getting much revenue for these memberships. Maybe a $1 or less per waived monthly fee?

I am a little worried about the lack of differentiation between Savor AF and SavorOne non-AF. First, it was them having the same 3% groceries on both cards and now this promo. You gotta do something for the AF folks beyond just 1% extra on dining/streaming/entertainment I think. But I can guess that they don't have a lot of AF cardholders because you could get 5% on dining for many of the AmEx cards.
