Have you done the math yet on what the reward redemption is on other purchases? I got I thought it was a 20% offer in the online interface when I checked on the MRe points I stockpiled from my Zync. MIght have misread.

I thought the wording was odd too.

My offer on my Platinum card is for 40% less points, but I can't find what the normal conversion rate for statement credits is to see how this compares. With the 40% less disount, it is coming out to 1 cent per point. I never use points this way so I don't know if the normal rate is 5/3 points per penny.
Assuming that is true, that means that others with a 30% offer should be seeing rates of 1.167 points per penny. Is that what you are seeing?
