Zync Pack Question

Ok, so I've just activated my card and I'm looking at the packs, more specifically Eco. I've read and some has confirmed Walmart will net you twice the points. Well I clicked on airlines and Delta & Southwest are also there. SOOOOOOdoes this mean if I purchase a plane ticket I'd get 4X the points? 2X with travel & 2xwith Eco?? Could this be a hidden Gem?

I doubt you'd get 4x points, but you may get 3x points.  For instance, when I had PR Gold, I got 4x points for airfare booked through Amex, though the card gives 3x points and the website gives 2x points.  I got 1 base point, 2 bonus points from card and 1 bonus point from website.  I think you could get 1 base point, then 1 bonus point from each pack.

No, it is 15.00 but has been great for me!  I pay my cell, home phone, internet, cable and you get 2x for each dollar of course with a $5k cap.

+ 1 you are simply doubling the points for that category.

Re: Zync Pack Question

Additional packs can be added when you authorize your card, correct?

Yes, they can be added and removed at any time.

 

Most packs even if you remove them will refund you the pack fee on a pro-rata basis.
