Re: My apartment accepts CC for rent!

Serve can be loaded directly with CC, as a purchase.

You still can do plain old serve that has 1000 max per month,I think its 200 max per day 


Wait, you can only charge $1000 per month? My rent is more than that.

 

Edit: Yep, $1000 max per month isn't going to work for me. Smiley Sad

Goodness, no. I'm sorry I'm being so daft about this. So I buy a gift card for the cost of my rent and load THAT to serve? That makes sense.

You have to do it via Walmart and have heard people have had mixed results so would do some research on that. The other option via GC is using something like evolve

Well, there are ways around that, such as loading with GC at Walmart or using additional Serves from family members.   But this is where you have to do a cost benefit, are the gains worth the extra complicaions.

What kind of GC?  Doesn't a GC have a fee to purchase?

Re: My apartment accepts CC for rent!

Would cash back be applied to credit converted using Serve/Isis?

Yes that is why people like to use it for purchases or bill pays that don't normally accept credit cards,it just shows up as purchase on your cc

Yes, $1500 in gift cards would cost, depending on where you get them and geography, between $7.50 and $18.  Generally, the $7.50 will earn just non-category bonus on all cards, $18 may earn up to 5% depending on the card.  That's why I said cost-benefit, going to stores you usually don't go to, to make/save small amounts of money may well not be worth it.  But if the stores are part of your normal routine, then maybe, really again depending on the card.

 

Remember you are not saving $32 a month as you don't have to pay that now, the question is how much you can make as compared to $0 paying from a bank account.  With a 1% card, on $1500 rent, the most you can do is $15 before fees.
