Anyone know how long it takes to receive your bonus?

Has anyone tried using JSX (formerly JetSuiteX) with Real-Time Rewards?

How to use my remaining flex perks points

I still have about $1000 worth of flex perks points. I have the old $49 annual fee Visa card . (I got them to waive the fee this year ). I was wondering if I go through the website and book a delta flight and cancel that will I just get a voucher from delta? If I pay the extra for the refundable one would I just get a credit card refund? How did you get rid of your points? Thanks for your help.

I use my points primarily for airfares. My only word of caution to you is that you keep an eye on the expiration of your points. Why not just book a flight or two with your remaining $1000 worth of points???

I have a US Bank promotion to earn cash back on dining and delivery. Does loading cash in the Uber Eats app post as Uber Eats? I know loading in the Uber app posts as Uber.

Thank you. The Door Dash app lets you buy a gift card. Does anyone know if it posts as Door Dash or as some gift card seller? Starbucks posts as Coffee Shops, so not sure about it.

There is a promotion in the DoorDash app for a discount on gift cards. When you click thru, it takes you to a third party site. On a BoA Visa, that posted as "Computer Programming" for me.

I had this same promotion on one of my US Bank cards. I used it to reload a local restaurant gift card thru the Toast website. I've never used that with a US Bank card before but in plenty of Amex and Chase promotions, any gift card load thru Toast has posted as the restaurant itself. So that's what I did for this promotion and I'm hoping the offer posts. If there is a local restaurant that happens to use Toast for its backend, that might be the easiest way to clear this promotion. We'll see.

EDIT: Just checked my US Bank card, and the local restaurant gift card load did, indeed, post as "Restaurant".

Thank you for the idea! I used the Toast app before with a different card and it posted as dining, but I never bought a gift card this way.

Can anyone give me (or point me to) instructions for transferring my Flexpoints to my Altitude Reserve card/points? I see lots of indications that it can be done but no actual instructions (other than a couple of people who called in). When I try to do it online it wants a destination FlexPoints number and of course fails when I enter my Altitude Reserve card number. TIA for any advice...

I finally booked a couple of big trips to widdle down my remaining Flexpoints balance to about $2K, which I'll use within the next few months before they expire. Are there any compelling reasons to keep this card, as it is no longer being issued????? I still kick myself for canceling my Citi Prestige card.

There are still 2% categories on this card. If you transfer the points to an Altitude Reserve, those effectively become 3% categories. And if you meet the spending threshold, you get the one time bonus of enough points to cover the annual fee.

That's a pretty weak reason but if your spending patterns line up it can be worth it.

Which cards can transfer points to Altitude Reserve? I thought no Altitude cards can do this. Are you implying all FlexPerks cards can? Mine is FlexPerks Select Rewards Visa ($0 fee).
