When do points post?
I am a newbie. When can I expect to see points posted? For example if I am purchasing a large ticket item from Costco in order to rack up points, will I see it immediately or when I pay the CC bill or at some other time?

Usually miles/points for purchases post within a day or two of your next statement closing date.

Exception is American Express Membership Rewards. Points post a few days after the statement closing date following the one on which the transaction appears, a one month delay.
