In Thailand I got only single points on GRAB (ride share) but double points on BOLT, another ride share app, same as I would get on Uber.
My biggest expenses when traveling in South America is AirBnB and Uber. That's about 40% of my daily expense (lodging and transport). I use those two for lodging and transport 90% of the time in South America. In Southeast Asia, lodging was almost exclusively Booking.com and rideshare apps. So, you can imagine how their inclusion would be of paramount importance.
Anybody have experience with this card and can comment on any caveats? Thanks.
