What types of purchases qualify for the Local Commuter Transportation category?
(Source: Chase Freedom FAQ)
Merchants in the Local Commuter Transportation category include regional operators of local commuter passenger trains, subways, metro, buses, taxis, and ferries. Please note that some merchants that provide transportation and related services are not included in this category; for example, national and international trains (such as Amtrak), airport shuttles/limousines, parking lots/garages, tolls/bridges, airlines, hotels, car rental agencies, cruise lines, travel agencies, discount travel sites, vacation clubs, tour operators, and some municipal/government owned entities.

Chase Freedom Q4 2017 Walmart purchase issue
I was going to take advantage of the Chase Freedom 2017 Q4 category bonus by using purchasing some email delivery Nintendo eshop digital with email delivery. I tried ordering twice and Walmart had to cancel my orders.
I know that not a lot of people order Nintendo eshop card in this forum. But if you have issue with any gift card purchase from Walmart (online or in store), I would like to hear from your feedback!
Many thanks!!

I seem to have a base point calculation error on my CF Sept Statement. It says Purchases $1621.23
then below
+1% 1Pt/$1 all purchases 1384
+Bonus from 3Q 5% cat: restaurants 3523
Why am I getting less than 1 base pt per $ for all purchases? In August I spent $1523.30 and was awarded 1524 pts on that line. Did anyone else see this issue on their Sept statement? Does it have something to do with the discontinuation of the addl 10 pts per transaction that I'm not getting anymore either?

Cracked It!
Magic Pickles has cracked the code for this quarter. I was just able to buy two of these cards yesterday with my credit card. Previous attempt to buy GCs at the same walmart was automatically denied by the POS (not by the cashier).

As long as it gets charged to Walmart.com, you're good to go.

I know of no way to verify this before hand. But since you're talking about a $100 purchase, the difference will be about 400 ultimate reward points if you don't receive them. Hardly the end of the world.
Now this may be different when shopping through a shopping portal for extra points. Sometimes they will specifically exclude products bought through third party vendors. But this should not affect the 5x points for spending in bonus categories.
