I got a postal mailer about this a few weeks ago.
Definitely some odd things are triggering it - My Netflix monthly payment triggered it, and a walgreens.com payment scored me 9 points per dollar, I'm guessing the combination of this plus a targeted 5x for drugstores I got a few months ago.

Any data on Points.com counting as a 5x online retailer? My guess is that it will trigger, but I want to be sure since I'm making a fairly large purchase there on 6/30.

I'm not really sure how to figure it out for other cards like Sears or TYP stable that may have online bonuses but no great way to reconcile them real time to what you really get. And I wouldn't want to pay a bunch on Plastiq and find out it was wrong.

I had some PayPal code up as NON ONLINE last month on the ATTA

I made purchases on Paypal (for ebay) and also some Amazon marketplace purchases, some purchases for tools and electronics and all of them coded as 5x. Also as Colin mentioned, its actually 1875 (7500/4) and not 1500. I'm already at 1853 and have gotten 5x so far.

So, taxes are due next week... Anyone paid them under this promo to see if applies?
There's a fee of around 2% to use a credit card, but even if you value points at only 1 cent then that's still a win at 5x points.

Has anyone purchased on Costco.com and seen if it counts as 5x? Would normally put on my BOA Cash Rewards for 5.25% but am close to the quarterly limit and can use that for a different category if I can get 5x here. Plus these points are worth 25% more because I have both Prestige and Premier, until they take that away in April. Thanks.
