New Program: TrueBlue Dining

It looks like JetBlue has finally gotten on board with Rewards Network who administers the dining programs for other airlines such as American, Delta, and United.

The process is simple, all you do is go to https://truebluedining.com/ and sign up. Link your credit card (just the number is needed, participating restaurants capture and send your transaction info to RN), find a participating restaurant, and then go dine.

For those new to this, it's an easy way to get TrueBlue points for simply eating out. You'll earn 1 point per $1 spent. Mosaic customers earn 2 points per $1 spent.

For those who already participate in other airlines' dining programs through Rewards Network, you'll see that not only is the website lame (there's only a Join button. There is no login button, so you can't log in after you've joined), but only one credit card can be linked, and the rewards are terrible compared to other airlines. At least with United, you get 1 mile/$, or 3 miles/$ once you have your email verified, or 5 miles/$ once you hit your 12 dines a year to get VIP status. With the JetBlue version, it's a flat 1 point/$ (or double that if you have status) regardless of how many dines you've had.

EDIT: They sent me an email confirming my registration. There is no way to access your account online (yet), but once you sign up, the email has many contact options for the TrueBlue portion of Rewards Network (phone number, email, and snail mail info included)

I participate in a few other airlines' programs with rewards network. It appears this one for TrueBlue isn't yet officially launched. I'm going to hold off on signing up, mainly because usually the programs offer some kind of new member signup bonus and I suspect that once this one is officially announced, it will do the same.

Also, I suspect it will possibly mirror Southwest's Rapid Rewards earning schedule, with periodic bonus thresholds rather than the accrued vip level of other airlines' programs like Delta and American. Perhaps they'd even be incorporated with the TrueBlue Badges program.

I tried to sign up and the website crashed after I entered my CC number. Now I can't log in to see if it 'took'.

They sent me an email inviting me to it. That's how I found out about it.

This graphic was in an email I received a few weeks ago


And Frank over at the next table over earned 75 to 125 miles/points by linking his credit card to another airline's dining program

Good news:



Maybe in another three years we'll get a VIP tier

There aren't that many restaurants in my area that participate, but I am hoping for more.

I'm still not bothering with this . The restaurants on here in my area are not the highest quality. Given that we can all get 3x points at nearly every restaurant using a different card, I wouldn't go through the effort.

Multiple

Does anyone know if a card can be linked to multiple programs?

Ie can I link a card to this that I already have linked to Mileage plus dining?

No. It won't let you. You'd have to remove the card from the program it is registered to before it will let you register it on another program.

This is three in addition to the credit card points themselves.

Oh, that's a much better earning rate.

If they expanded to restaurants I frequent, I'd consider it. Since I'm not flying nearly so much for work these days so I don't really go out of my way to earn points on B6. I'm currently on the CSR train for UR points.
