Aspire card terms were posted by pointsengineer in post 56. It appears the Surpass terms are identical except for saying Surpass instead of Aspire, $10 instead of $20, and $110 instead of $220.

The app/account has a card management feature where you register your cards and shift balances from one to the other (effectively combining credits).

Like others, I have the $10 off $10 on my Bonvoy and Delta Gold. I also have the $5 off $5 on my Hilton, but seems limited to one card. I have two NAF Hilton cards (one switched from Citi) but only found the offer on one of the Hilton cards.

Can anyone verity if starbucks works? As this exclusively for U.S. Restaurants and I'm abroad for the foreseeable future, I think Gift Cards are the only way I can take advantage until I'm back in the US.

Reloading your Starbucks account does work. I don’t know how using the Starbucks app abroad works, but I’m sure you could set your VPN to the USA and reload your card in app. Not sure if you can spend it while abroad though.

It seems like gift cards, generally, will not work unless they are bought in restaurant. But loading funds directly into restaurant apps will work. Does anybody know of a list of apps that allow this kind of funding? Couldn't see a way to do it with McDonalds, Shake Shack, Jimmy Johns, Sonic, Taco Cabana or Subway apps.

Havne't tried it with Am Ex but bought gift cards online at Red Robin's and Outbacks sites using my chase reserve and it coded as a restaurant for pay yourself back.

These will not work as the gift cards are sold by wgiftcards.com and not Chipotle/Panera. Buying gift cards at most online stores will not trigger the bonus since the gift card is typically sold by CashStar or wgiftcard online.

Top ups on the Starbucks and Chick-fil-a apps will work fine. I'm not aware of other apps where this will work.

Are you able to figure out if any gift card purchase will qualify for the offer?
For those of you in Canada, you could try to setup an account on the US Starbucks app and reload on that. I use my US based Starbucks app whenever I am in Canada and the payment works just fine at the current exchange rate. Minor issue is that I don't ear Star points for those transactions, but I'll take the convenience and I typically load up the Starbucks app at a 5-10% discount since there are frequent offers between Amex and Chase.

Thanks for the correction. I personally don’t need any more Starbucks credit and don’t eat at Chick-fil-a, but shouldn’t have any problems using my credits through natural spend.

Any experience with weekly subscription meal delivery services? We use CookUnity and I'm currently charging it to another card but this would help not loose the monthly credits I am getting on the HH Aspire and MR Bonvoy cards.

Am I the only one old fashioned enough to simply have a restaurant bill that is at least $20 each month?
