How to Redeem Bank of America WorldPoints Travel Rewards

Posted on by . 23 Replies

Good morning everyone.  I recently signed up for a Bank of America WorldPoints Travel Rewards Business Credit Card (thanks to Bank of America’s $1,000 business checking account offer) and was curious how best to redeem my WorldPoints.  I believe WorldPoints earned from a personal credit card and a business credit card can be redeemed for the same things at the same value and probably combined into 1 WorldPoints account, but I have not tested that idea yet.

My Bank of America WorldPoints Travel Rewards Business Credit Card earns 1.5 points per dollar spent everywhere and the points do not expire.  I’m only using this card for the business checking account bonus, so I don’t recommend using this card for everyday spending.  You can do much better with a Citi Double Cash Credit Card that earns 2% cash back.

Discover ApplePay 10% Bonus “One-Time Courtesy” Credits Posting on December Statements

Posted on by . 2 Replies

Good morning everyone.  I just got an email from Discover stating that my December statement was available to view.  I eagerly logged into my Discover It Credit Card account to see if my ApplePay 10% cash back bonus posted.  Last month, I wrote Discover ApplePay 10% Bonus “One-Time Courtesy” Credits Not Posting on November Statements, where I shared my experience with not receiving the bonus cash back in November.  Prior to that post, I wrote Discover Honors ApplePay Gift Card Purchases as “One-Time Courtesy” through 9/17/2015, where I showed the good and bad emails from Discover (good email shown below).

Anyway, after logging into my Discover It Credit Card account, I saw $112.48 as an ApplePay 10% cash back bonus.  Since there is a 1-2 month lag between making the purchase and receiving the cash back, I looked at all my purchases from the last year and exported them to a spreadsheet.

Good morning everyone, happy Cyber Monday.  American Express announced a few new AMEX Offers this morning.  My favorite is Dunkin’ Donuts: $5 off $10.  Unfortunately, there are no Dunkin’ Donuts near by for me to take advantage of half off donuts and coffees :(

The next best offer is for Orchard Supply Hardware (aka OSH): $10 off $50.  If you celebrate the holidays, I’m sure you can find a few decorations to purchase at OSH.
